Regardless of the presented reason, it is right that people question and are cautious about increased surveillance. Some people are willing to capitulate to more and more monitoring very easily. Privacy is important.
Yes but you're essentially complaining about the equivalent of speed cameras and claiming that they're going to be used for monitoring you. Which would only happen if you were driving past them very loudly so just don't do that.
If you get caught speeding you can hardly use the arguement of well the government shouldn't be monitoring me.
You're engaging in the classic slippery slope fallacy. Anything you don't like, all you have to do is claim that it's a step on the way to tyranny and suddenly it's acceptable to oppose it. The same arguement was used to oppose the introduction of seat belts.
Ah the classic naïveté of the "nothing to hide" argument.
