The “cops" will make sure that all the appropriate filters and processes are in place for the government to monitor its own citizens.

They are there to enforce regulation on the companies, not on “cybercriminals.” Or to put it another way, operating an Internet company that fails to acts as a de-facto arm of the state’s surveillance and culture-control policy is itself a cyber-crime.

Make sure that everybody toes the line and if they don't report them to the prosecution who will then find some reason to make their lives miserable.

The same thing any compliance officer does anywhere. Whether you have one because you're legally required to or you have one because you don't want to risk getting fined or sued isn't really a meaningful difference.
