Is not that they are monitoring me. I have nothing to hide. Other than the usual, which is encrypted in utorrent, apparently.
What worries me more is, what if they were to perform covert MiTM attacks? They are in the perfect position to do so. Anyone using online banking could be targeted and suddenly they have no money.
Or they could transfer money into people's accounts and make them look like money launderers, so they could be arrested.
Yes yes, it is all a bit conspiracy theory-ish... but if I had suggested I thought the NSA was mirroring fibre a year ago you would think the same.
This is what worries me over the debacle, as most data appears to pass through the USA.
