I suspect soon enough (unless it's already a trend) Americans may be afraid to even speak of this in public as with mass surveillance you never know how and when your unfavorable words of the regime may affect you.

I suspect you don't know any Americans.
It is one of the bright spots of this: Americans are stubbornly stupid enough to be completely willing to damn the consequences.

(That is, in some respect, how we got into the social media surveillance state: brazen willingness to damn the consequences of oversharing, for quite superficial reasons.)
