Confiscation isn't the only way to get your property back. You can always find the thieves, like with any other stolen property.

Abusive confiscation is not really a reality. If it were, we'd have much bigger problems.
It was an unnecessary change that will lead to abuse by gov eventually.
You already have abuse of government. You can't avoid abuse of government, DAR or no DAR. That is unless you think there will be a coordinated effort to change government, which I wouldn't hold my breath for.
Again, these are silly fears. Abuse of government, abuse of skilled hackers.
