Re: War.
I suppose it could be considered an act of war if main stream media companies own governments via, campaign contributions, offshore 'cough' 'cough' donations in tax havens, will drug parties and young 'er' extortion material to ensure control (this includes members of the British ig-nobility).
Although likely that is starting to push into treason territory, so disrupting that should be considered an act of justice and not an act of war.
No strict law enforcement department will ever be able to hire sufficient numbers, those privacy invasive psychopaths who would do the work simply want more money and do it for private corporations and people more skilled than them, much more skilled, simply want to enjoy life to much to be buried in policing agency.
So what you do is expand communications and media control authorities to contain a computer forensics, investigation and laboratory division, still civilian of course and they provide the technical expertise for policing investigation under the control and authority of those policing departments. That way those policing departments get very skilled and very creative people and those skilled and creative people can remain contented pot heads (they will have the skill to get into tax haven information, with the assistance of properly trained field agents of course, oh my the people they could send to prison or in some countries put before a firing squad).
