No. Why? The focus problem.
There are how many FBI, CIA, NSA, Secret Service etc... agents vs how many Americans?
How do they focus on me as a person? As much as I would like to believe we have the power to sift through millions of people to find the ones we don't like, we can't. If we could we would have found and arrested 20 or so Saudi nationals who were in our country with out jobs, taking flying lessons who weren't concerned with landing the plane. Several of whom were on a terrorist watch list.
Nope, the powers that be struggle with the actual threats, so I am not concerned with them getting over to the imagined ones.They don't have to, that's what they have massive data centers and supercomputers for. Gather all the info, lets computers do the heavy analysis, and use human intelligence to follow up on the leads from that.
Which is kind of his point. The general public has really no concern that anything they say or do is coming under scrutiny by anything other than a system which collects it as data. It's too hands off to be considered "big brother".
