They're not just capitalists, they're oligarchs. They feel entitled to that private information and they don't care how much "campaign contributions" they have to give to get what they want.

Not to be that guy but capitalists and oligarchs are basically the same thing given enough time. As soon as people have capital they have more power and with more power comes influence.
