[cdvosotn] Law enforcement opposition to privacy

It is weird that opposition to laws increasing privacy and protecting civil liberties seems to come from organized well-funded lobbyists for law enforcement.

In theory, law enforcement ought to be indifferent to the law; they enforce whatever law is written, and it is up to the people to write a good law balancing concerns.

With well-funded lobbyists working for less civil liberties, and not really well-funded or organized opposition for protecting them, is good law actually being written?
