This seems like a mighty conspiracist view on the topic. There haven't been any inklings, covert or overt, that the recent actions taken by governments are for anything other than their stated goals.

How can you confidently say that this is about control and not security?

Have you ever managed an organization? Then you would understand why it is a fundamental need for those in control to have the maximum amount of information possible. It's impossible to govern an organization of you know nothing about it.

That you call it a conspiracy betrays your ignorance of this matter.

You just did an excellent job of not answering the literally one question I asked you. Could you do that, please?
