If I was the bad guys I would definitely do that. In fact, it's not enough to have a risk factor because there are many types of risk (terrorism risk, standard crime risk, political risk, and even whistle-blower risk, for those with access to classified information).
- junto 11y agoSomeone with a bit of UI design skills should make a mocknup of this. A visual idea conveys so much more to the general public than words.

Is it your position that the general public would be better informed of the actual state of the world if someone created a non-functional prototype of something you imagine to exist? Or is your intent not to inform them of the actual state of the world, but to convince them of your beliefs about it?

Visual fictional examples often work even better. See Alan Moore. The concept of the entire world's population in an NSA database is of course unrealistic, but would it be a realistic end goal? I don't see why not.
