hi 24601,

before snowden, no conspiracy theorist imagined the scale of surveillance in and by the US (and the other five eyes).

i agree that the first stage of its surveillance appears to involve communications. but having decided someone is suspicious, it is a small step to targeting devices.

let us not forget that the nsa has reportedly been undermining every sort of encryption for years. http://www.wired.com/2013/09/nsa-backdoored-and-stole-keys/

or that SOD (and its members) has been off subverting the legal process using parallel construction. http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/08/05/us-dea-sod-idUSBRE97409R20130805

or that advisors to the German government have pointed out deficiencies in the protections TPMs provide that were traced back to the NSA's programme. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/08/23/nsa_germany_windows_8/
