The NSA has stadiums of digital storage space. Anything with a camera
can be suspect, anything with a microphone can be suspect. They even
use baby monitors to spy on people. Cameras are so tiny nowadays they
can put them anywhere they want, so even general appliances could be
suspect.

How the US and other nations skirt laws against domestic spying:

    "Britain's GCHQ intelligence agency can spy on anyone but British
nationals, the NSA can conduct surveillance on anyone but Americans,
and Germany's BND (Bundesnachrichtendienst) foreign intelligence
agency can spy on anyone but Germans. That's how a matrix is created
of boundless surveillance in which each partner aids in a division of
roles. http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/secret-documents-nsa-targeted-germany-and-eu-buildings-a-908609.html

William Binney (Former high level NSA analyst, also whistleblower
pre-Snowden): “At least 80% of fibre-optic cables globally go via the
US”, Binney said. “This is no accident and allows the US to view all
communication coming in. At least 80% of all audio calls, not just
metadata, are recorded and stored in the US. The NSA lies about what
it stores.” https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jul/11/the-ultimate-goal-of-the-nsa-is-total-population-control

13 minutes. Highly recommended.

The government created a controversial spy program called "Total
Information Awareness," a Darpa project, and their logo was an all
seeing eye and pyramid, but it was canceled due to public backlash.

    Although the program was formally suspended, its data mining
software was later adopted by other government agencies, with only
superficial changes being made. The core architecture of TIA continued
development under the code name "Basketball." According to a 2012 New
York Times article, the legacy of Total Information Awareness is
"quietly thriving" at the National Security Agency (NSA).

May 4, 2013, right after Boston Marathon: a former FBI
counterterrorism agent admitted that the government records all phone
calls, and this is how they were going to investigate suspects. This
was reported in The Guardian by Glenn Greenwald. Mind you, this was
about a month before Greenwald first published the Snowden documents.

    Are all telephone calls recorded and accessible to the US
government? A former FBI counterterrorism agent claims on CNN that
this is the case - by Glenn Greenwald

    ...they are now focused on telephone calls between Russell and
Tsarnaev that took place both before and after the attack to determine
if she had prior knowledge of the plot or participated in any way.

    On Wednesday night, Burnett interviewed Tim Clemente, a former FBI
counterterrorism agent, about whether the FBI would be able to
discover the contents of past telephone conversations between the two.
He quite clearly insisted that they could:

    BURNETT: Tim, is there any way, obviously, there is a voice mail
they can try to get the phone companies to give that up at this point.
It's not a voice mail. It's just a conversation. There's no way they
actually can find out what happened, right, unless she tells them?

    CLEMENTE: "No, there is a way. We certainly have ways in national
security investigations to find out exactly what was said in that
conversation. It's not necessarily something that the FBI is going to
want to present in court, but it may help lead the investigation
and/or lead to questioning of her. We certainly can find that out.

    BURNETT: "So they can actually get that? People are saying, look,
that is incredible.

    CLEMENTE: "No, welcome to America. All of that stuff is being
captured as we speak whether we know it or like it or not."

...but, but muh "metadata"... No, they are pulling in everything, not
just your metadata. Entire phone calls are recorded, then probably
transcribed into text for easy storage and searching.

They have also had "voiceprint" tech for years. That's another
interesting aspect.

Sunday of getting back at you." - Chuck Schumer.
