one-fifth of americans believe their telephone calls were monitored by federal agents.
when the NSA warrantless surveilance story first broke, i realized that i had made one telephone call to syria and two to uzbekistan during the period this program was in place. while i wouldn't say that federal agents definitely listened to me, it is a possibility. although given just how many immigrants from a wide assortment of countries there are here and the fact that those immigrants probably call home fairly regularly, i guess a tap on my own phone isn't all that likely.
one thing i am sure of: if they did listen, they were pretty bored by what they heard.
