Ah, but the government does. They are the ones that come in and pick up the pieces. They are the ones that insure you when your insurance company tells you to go #### yourself because the storm was an act of god. The government provides a massive safety blanket for our society and we rely heavily on them. When we can't handle things ourselves we look to the larger collective body (government) to provide those services and protections. When it comes to security we pretty well turn over the whole ball of wax to the government and trust them to protect us.
There you go putting words in people's mouth again. It's not a global conspiracy and no one suggested as much. In fact, it's just the opposite.
If you had bothered to watch the linked videos you would understand the motivation to hide such discoveries and technologies. There is competition between countries and ideologies and this is just another area of possible advantage that nations can have over each other. Imagine the benefit and power your country would have if they could develop craft such as those observed? Imagine the potential military advantage you would have? Just like there was a race to the moon, and just like there was an arms race, there is a race to understand and gain advantage from the recovered technology.
And yes, all countries have rigorous protections in place to safeguard their secrets. The more developed the nation, the more sensitive their information, the more advanced their safeguards are going to be. The more sensitive the information the more complex the safeguards are. This has been the way of governments for as long as these functions have been around. These practices have been shared or copied over the centuries and from country to country. I'm surprised you're even questioning this. I can't believe anyone would even suggest this is not the case and then hide behind a "global conspiracy" claim. That is what doesn't make sense.

I get why a country would do this, should it actually happen. That's pretty basic stuff.
So not a "global conspiracy" but each country having their own alien spacecraft secret. Sorry, that's just too many people to keep it hidden from humanity for so long. You shouldn't be surprised I'd question it, because it's a bafflingly difficult to believe proposition. I think maybe you "want to believe" just a little too hard and ignore obvious weak points in your theories.
