Forget all the positive reasons. Following are my scare-tactics:
- There was an ominous “test balloon” a few years back; a successful cyber attack on a small water utility company in Illinois. Since then, no one has been accused or caught, not even the Russians. And nothing has been done. Imagine the possibilities…
- The military is allowed to detain US terrorist suspects without trial. See more on Wikipedia.
- For more, see this on the Washington Post.
