There is a chart somewhere that shows the % of Masternodes you would need to control to get a % chance at deanonymizing a private send. It's a bit old, it stops at 4000 masternodes, LOL, which we now have 4200+ but still, it shows how fruitless it is to try, and it would be a waste of money and resources for any large nefarious group to try.
And that is why Masternodes are collateralized.
Here is the old chart. Moocow's chart is more up to date though, bookmarked!
