Hehe,

Thanks for the reply, you guys.
I suppose I don't have anything to hide, apart from my credit details when I do some online shopping. I guess I just don't like the idea of being watched all the time. This invasion of privacy is, in my opinion, quite disturbing. But I guess I'd better get used to it. As hearing it from you people, tomorrow isn't the day I will not be snooped on Though the question would also apply to encryption then...
Remember - it's not paranoia when they really are after you
