hehehehe , I am not seeking for an answer  , I want to show emphasis on the poll , imagine , back in 2006 they knew that they were being monitored.

It has always been known unencrypted data transferred over the internet had the potential to be intercepted and read, even decades prior to the date of that poll. There was a partial belief we could all trust each other, I don't think anyone ever imagined in 2006 the NSA and GCHQ were carrying out such broad and large scale data gathering. One of the problems still faced today is metadata...

Its true that unencrypted data can be intercepted and read.I edited my mistake , I didn't mean to say that they knew.

And yes ,indeed metadata is one of the problems still faced today.
