Al,
Until there is a terror act...you have been following the boston bombing aftermath, yes?
Bad example, since phone record monitoring failed to prevent that act of terror.

And IIRC, the main tools that helped track down the suspects were pictures taken by smartphones from the people at the scene.

But that's all after-the-fact investigations. Big Brother policies are supposed to prevent terrorism from occurring in the first place. If they can't, what's the national security reason for having them?
