But without any sort of oversight, accountability, or really any of the sort of mechanisms that should be in place for this to be considered an agency of a functional democracy, we have to assume that if they have the ability to do it with a very low chance of getting caught, and they've already done it in the past, there's a fairly good chance they're doing it again.

We won't assume they are 100% still doing it, but there is a significant non-trivial probability that they are, and in what we like to call a democracy, this is very very wrong.
