And yet, cars kill many, many more people (1.25 million in 2013, per WHO) than mass surveillance does. And parent didn't qualify his statement as to which products the oath would apply to:

"Anything I build can and will be abused. I am responsible for my designs, for my products, and for the data I collect and store. If my technology is used for evil, I am responsible."

Mass surveillance does something a lot more insidious than car wrecks, it sets up a future where people are killed. It's like global warming.
