A comment on Twitter is being sued for letting Saudi spies inside the company. Parent comment
It is always a mistake to use nationality as a proxy for trustworthiness.
Being a US person, personally I'm much more concerned with the negative impacts of US spies spying in the US than foreign spies spying in the US.
Foreign governments don't regularly go around mass murdering and torturing Americans the way the US government does.
Americans have a lot more to lose from CIA spying than they do from Saudi intelligence agency spying.
