i understand that. nevertheless, my point is valid. many government entities are set-up to monitor situations, police are a great example. of course i don't think the police can protect me from all earthly threats to my existence, but the fact is they monitor and protect.
just like the UN. in another thread, op wonders why the UN is not on-top (monitoring) a situation in the middle east but the u.s. monitoring a website where people have been known to reveal their intentions is off-limits.
