How would some of you secure your personal PC's?
Turn them off?
Who else thinks that by now they aren't capable of monitoring/censoring all web traffic regardless of encryption capability?
But you can make there lives more miserable or so difficult unless you are a high profile terrorist or the German chancellor they really just won't bother.

There is far too much internet traffic for the NSA or anyone else to monitor it by person. They don't have the manpower or person power to do it. Apparently internet traffic is filtered through super computers looking for so called key phrases. Which to me seems very stupid as anyone could easily use a code like "my new engine will be ready next week" and the moron NSA or CIA would have no idea WTF.

For some reason this makes me think of teasing a big nasty dog just outside the reach of his frayed old rope. In other words what are you thinking???

The filters the NSA uses are much more complex than simple key word detectors. They're designed to process petaflops of data per second and can seek out patterns, detect differences in writing style etc.
If the little camera on your Xbox one can not only use facial recognition to identify everyone in the room but also detect their temperature and facial expression to evaluate mood? Well that's a $400.00 toy. What the NSA is playing with is generations beyond that pale.
