Yes but that is the hole point. Those of use who are primly concerned with government and not corporations want to create a government and a legal system were neither the state itself or somebody using the state has the wide ranging powers that a modern state has.
If the state simply does not have the ability to attack a country on the other side of the world, then no amount of bribing politicians can make it happen. When the state does not have backdoors into everything, their is no amount of political pressure that can make the state misuse that power.
I want to limit government power because they have the monopoly of force. Everything that Google is doing threw the government has to go threw the governments monopoly of force. We need to control the monopoly of force by the rule of law on the level of individual freedom.
The wrong way to go about it is to have a super powerful state that can easily regulate every aspect of what Google and co are doing and can tell them what to do because that is essentially Fascism.
