Actually, no, "every other country is" NOT "spying on every other country".
You think Belgium or France or Poland spies on US citizens phone-calls and Google/FB? Inside the US?
As for "Nobody gives a shit if your torrented a movie", first, we're not talking about Joe Average, that downloads GoT in rural Idaho. We're talking about people that matter to society: writers, investigative journalists, dissidents, hackers, activists, etc. They cared very much what A. Swartz did, for example.
Second, even normal people, downloading a "torrented movie" have been hit with huge fines by RIAA.
