    They don't monitor everything. Only suspicious things. For example, they might take a peer to peer program like utorrent and check the IP adresses of anyone downloading pirated movies, games, etc. They also monitor the activity of child porn torrents and such.

    But they don't have the time or manpower or ability to everything everyone does.

    • Imagine if one day they did have the manpower and budget to, eh?

    • If that happens, I'll have to resort to the good old telephone. At least then the government needs a warrant or court approval to listen to what you're saying.

      Or maybe I'll just talk in code whenever I send an email...
