There's a feeling of a movement developing though. The NSA revelations have provided political will where it didn't exist before. They've perhaps created an atmosphere of the US versus everyone else. There are plenty of people that stand to gain from this situation. Individually many of these projects are opportunistic but in aggregate they will almost inevitably lead to an erosion of the US position.



It won't lead to an erosion of anything. There's already the usual suspects: China, Russia, Cuba, NK, and Venezuela. There is no everyone else except these usual suspects. Will it be eroded in British Commonwealth? Nope. Any European country except possibly Germany? Nope. South America except Venezuela and Brazil's rhetoric? Nope. Africa? Nope.
