I was thinking more along the lines of getting rid of the whole horrid mess.
Geez Check out Corsi’s latest Twetter rant.

He has really gone off the rails.
That would suit me. It doesn't make sense to create a secret space that has to be paid for extra, for no gain in privacy.
The government has the right to snoop without a warrant, see US v US District Court [Keith], 407 U.S. 297 (1972), the case that "spurred" the creation of the FISA system.
The issue before us is an important one for the people of our country and their Government. It involves the delicate question of the President's power, acting through the Attorney General, to authorize electronic surveillance in internal security matters without prior judicial approval. Successive Presidents for more than one-quarter of a century have authorized such surveillance in varying degrees, without guidance from the Congress or a definitive decision of this Court. This case brings the issue here for the first time. Its resolution is a matter of national concern, requiring sensitivity both to the Government's right to protect itself from unlawful subversion and attack and to the citizen's right to be secure in his privacy against unreasonable Government intrusion. ...
Bear in mind that this case sits on a house of cards created by the court in the first place, beginning with SCOTUS holding that there is no reasonable expectation of privacy (at all) in electronic/telephonic communication. Mean no warrant required for wiretapping, no violation of the 4th amendment.
Government will always use surveillance to the extent money and technology permit - "legal" limitations mean nothing. The government lies about this, because if it told the truth, the people would rebel. So, Congress, the courts, and even the executive all make the right couping sounds (I did that on purpose) to lull the people into a sense that the government actually respects the constitution.
About as much as I respect the government.
