If you told me, everything I do is being monitored and logged everyday, I wouldn't be surprised. I gave up trying to hide myself few years ago. I realized that unless I completely cut off and just become isolated I would always be leaked out. So I decided to try the other approach, I gave up on being paranoid and just enjoyed things. I am quite sure their is a file about me somewhere which states what I do, well if you really want to make things simpler for NSA and other agencies, I will give you a brief intro about what I do online.
I work as a freelancer, I setup things and work on videos.
I tweet a lot, I love tweeting.
I use Facebook for gaming but I stopped gaming so I seldom use Facebook.
My main purpose for using Internet is to socialize.
I download torrents, pretty much type of them. I don't buy entertainment products since I am in a 3rd World Country and privacy is something we all take granted for.
I am a low target, I neutral when it comes to Internet, I don't judge, I just want to be free to speak my mind and not get bombed or killed for religious reasons.
With that done, watch this Documentary and do read the quote text as well.
In 1957, with funding from a CIA front organization, Dr. Ewan Cameron of the Allan Memorial Institute in Montreal, Canada began MKULTRA Subproject 68.[121] His experiments were designed to first "depattern" individuals, erasing their minds and memories—reducing them to the mental level of an infant—and then to "rebuild" their personality in a manner of his choosing.[122] To achieve this, Cameron placed patients under his "care" into drug-induced comas for up to 88 days, and applied numerous high voltage electric shocks to them over the course of weeks or months, often administering up to 360 shocks per person. He would then perform what he called "psychic driving" experiments on the subjects, where he would repetitively play recorded statements, such as "You are a good wife and mother and people enjoy your company", through speakers he had implanted into blacked-out football helmets that he bound to the heads of the test subjects (for sensory deprivation purposes). The patients could do nothing but listen to these messages, played for 16–20 hours a day, for weeks at a time. In one case, Cameron forced a person to listen to a message non-stop for 101 days.[122] Using CIA funding, Cameron converted the horse stables behind Allen Memorial into an elaborate isolation and sensory deprivation chamber which he kept patients locked in for weeks at a time.[122] Cameron also induced insulin comas in his subjects by giving them large injections of insulin, twice a day for up to two months at a time.[104] Several of the children who Cameron experimented on were sexually abused, in at least one case by several men. One of the children was filmed numerous times performing sexual acts with high-ranking federal government officials, in a scheme set up by Cameron and other MKULTRA researchers, to blackmail the officials to ensure further funding for the experiments.[123]

About the NSA, read this:
http://boingboing.net/2013/06/09/new-nsa-leak-boundlessinforma.html
In the Guardian, Glenn Greenwald and Ewen MacAskill leak a description of
another NSA top-secret program, this one codenamed "BOUNDLESSINFORMANT." This is apparently a tool that helps spies keep track of which snooping tools they can deploy in which countries, and it produces pretty, color-coded maps showing where the NSA spying powers are strongest. The Guardian has excellent notes on how this fits in with the ongoing fight between the US Senate and the NSA on whether and how the NSA spies on Americans:
The Boundless Informant documents show the agency collecting almost 3 billion pieces of intelligence from US computer networks over a 30-day period ending in March 2013. One document says it is designed to give NSA officials answers to questions like, "What type of coverage do we have on country X" in "near real-time by asking the SIGINT [signals intelligence] infrastructure."
An NSA factsheet about the program, acquired by the Guardian, says: "The tool allows users to select a country on a map and view the metadata volume and select details about the collections against that country."
Under the heading "Sample use cases", the factsheet also states the tool shows information including: "How many records (and what type) are collected against a particular country."
A snapshot of the Boundless Informant data, contained in a top secret NSA "global heat map" seen by the Guardian, shows that in March 2013 the agency collected 97bn pieces of intelligence from computer networks worldwide.
They quote Judith Emmel, an NSA spokesperson who says, "The continued publication of these allegations about highly classified issues, and other information taken out of context, makes it impossible to conduct a reasonable discussion on the merits of these programs." However, the NSA would not admit the existence of these programs (not even to the senate),
And there is more, I mean you can ask how did they do it?

Yeah and here is some more information to help you fight it.
Sooner or later they will have mandatory monitoring of everything and CCTV installed in our homes, cars and whatnot. You won't even be able to take a shit without at least 50 spooks knowing about it in great detail. Thing is most people have the whole "you have nothing to worry about unless you are hiding something" mentality these days and the media only fuels that fact. They don't know how dangerous the world is becoming with this extra surveillance of society in general.
