If you're talking to a part of the world that harbors terrorists, yes you should expect to be listened in on because the nuclear danger is too high. People complain because they don't have a clue as to how the rules have been bent in the past to protect us. If I had relatives living in the Tora Bora region of the world, I would expect my phone calls to them to be monitored. As I believe Lincoln once said, the constitution should not be looked at as an excuse to commit suicide.
