of what I personally believe – this is just an interpretation of what the
United States Terms of Service could look like.
UNITED STATES TERMS OF SERVICE
THIS SITE IS BEING MONITORED BY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
You are about to enter a website hosted in the United States
of America. You must be aware of the
following to continue:
Any data that you post, upload, or download to this website,
in any shape or form (text, pictures, pdf, all associated metadata, etc.) may
be collected by the United States government.
The fact that you have visited this website, and your IP address, will
also be collected. The Government of the
United States maintains that this data will only be used to track potential
threats, internal or external, to our country.
This data is made accessible by the government purely for the safety of
our nation.
Any incriminatory activity that you perform on this website
may be used against you in the court of law.
You have no reasonable expectation of privacy – please be aware that
with legitimate reason, your entire history with this website may become
accessible in a court case. Encrypted
data may try to be cracked.
It is your responsibility not to participate on websites
that threaten or intend to harm the United States of America. If you come across such a website, please
report it at report@usgovernment (disclaimer: not a real email address), or
call our tipline at 555-555-5555.
Any incoming or outgoing data on this website may be

online phone calls may be monitored.
Again, it must be repeated that ANY INCRIMINATORY ACTIVITY OR
ASSOCIATION WITH GROUPS THAT THREATEN AMERICA MAY BE USED AGAINST YOU IN THE

BE PROSECUTED THROUGH THE PROPER LEGAL CHANNELS.
If you would like to know more about these laws, please gain
security clearance, because they are secret.
Please send all complains to complain@usgovernment.
The US TOS was created to address concerns about privacy
regarding the internet. We intend to
make everything about surveillance operations (except the laws behind them)
transparent. The United States
Surveillance program is intended to track potential threats through the use of
data analysis. It is NOT intended to spy
on the personal lives of individual, law-abiding citizens. The decision of who is a good, law-abiding
citizen is made by the government.
The government intends to keep all Americans safe through
this surveillance. If a reasonable
threat is detected, all data will be used to trace them, find them, and monitor
their activities and patterns to determine how, when, where, and why they plan
to attack us, and have the evidence to stop it.
Again, all law-abiding citizens that we determine are good are still
safe, and even safer than they were before. We are doing everything we can to
minimize attacks on our soil. We need
the people to help us to do this – by sacrificing your privacy, you are
increasing your safety.
Thank you for reading the US Terms of Service. We want all Americans to fully understand
what we are attempting to do, and we thank you for bearing with us in this
process. Thank you for working with us
in order to create a safer, more peaceful United States, so you can go through
your day without having to look over your shoulder. You must agree to these terms in order to
enter the website.
We are required to inform you that information about whether
you agree or disagree may also be collected.

Unfortunately, there is probably some pro-NSA person out there advocating for something like this...
