If you are asking for proof that the government is watching everyone of us just take a look at the USA PATRIOT Act. It give authority to wire tap and other surveillance activities with much less restriction. It allows authorities to circumvent the constitution and hold prisoners incommunicado while violating their 6th and 14th Amendments right to due process. Clearly unconstitutional.
Here is an example of how the law is being abused
Lundeby said the USA Patriot Act stripped her son of his due process rights.
"We
have no rights under the Patriot Act to even defend them, because the
Patriot Act basically supersedes the Constitution," she said. "It wasn't
intended to drag your barely 16-year-old, 120-pound son out in the
middle of the night on a charge that we can't even defend."

drop in a VNC server, pre-key it, and hide it from the process table listing, and one is home in a Windows environment; munge a kernel module, and one can attain the same effect in Linux. Apple has similar in OS/X ...

A strong assertion. A search turns up just another vendor, in the marketing hunt trying to sell to the Homeland Security 'garrison state'
http://www.kaseya.com/
with a FIPS-140-2 certification. They are co-marketing with Microsoft
http://www.microsoft.com/sbs/en/us/software-solutions.aspx
and they seem to advert having sold to the U S Air Force
Conspicuously absent from a google search is non 'tinfoil hat' evidence beyond supposition and capabilities, and actually showing improper use by a federal agency
Please, prove me wrong with URLs I missed
