Are all those who walk down the street (municipal streets being a
trivial-to-snoop-or-block service, of course) due to the convenience
thereof and then also 'bitch about surveillance or censorship' in

impact the legitimacy of contesting surveillance? The implication you seem
to be making is 'surveillance is OK as long as it's easy'.
