In this scenario, Hollywood glamorizes law enforcement by not only portraying LEOs as basically paladins who are working hard to "catch bad guys", but also by portraying all criminals as despicable villains who only seek to hurt others. This glamorization makes us want to be spied upon, as the narrative tells us that this allows the "good guys" to catch those who are trying to harm us.
