I'll need to think about this a lot more, but I agree Western spying is currently by far the lesser of the two evils.

The ultimate goal of Western spying comes down to these two things:

1. Preventing another 9/11

2. Selling advertising

I mean, there's more than that. The CIA spied on Congressional committee tasked with oversight over the CIA, this became public, and essentially nothing happened in response.
