Those things are not new and unrelated to surveillance, surveillance only amplify those problems. The issue is, companies/government should not be allowed to take decisions or discriminate, based or not on information, without a decision from a judge.
The rest was about shortcuts being taken, because the government was able to take those shortcuts, because:
1. people are not aware of the technologies enabling surveillance, and how to efficiently protect themselves. Those technologies are new.
2. Current internet technologies being surveillance oriented rather than privacy oriented. This need to change and will obviously change one day or the other. At least the market will expand with the news.
