We continue to move from a law enforcement system of warrants/detective work into wholesale surveillance. We have lazily been doing that since 2001.
I think the authorities forgot how to solve crimes without full access to your data. They forgot about what started this country and they despise the bill of rights and especially Amendment #4. At some point having all this data is just noise and makes actual detection harder. Even if they have the data, without detective work by smart authorities, having all that data is useless.
Terror attacks are horrible and we should try to prevent them, but the legislative and executive attack on our freedoms is much worse than any terrorist could do.
