If that were the case, I would be open with the people and tell them. My belief is that while it may have worked at first, the terrorists and organized boogeymen have now found new ways to communicate (which happens) so the wiretaps and surveillance they are using now are there for other purposes. To possibly take out the people who speak out.... eventually.
