Bogus argument.

In many places around the world, and is becoming alrmingly more
possible in this country, anyone who speaks out against the establishment/power-base is a target.

Trending, monitoring, probably other terms my simpleton vocabulary can
not think of right now...not tracking. To "track" you they'd have to
be looking at YOU. Why would they be doing that? This is black
helicopter, tinfoil hat BS! Get over yourselves, you're not that
important to anyone.

I am NOT saying that if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to
fear - eventually, everyone has something to hide. However, this is
not the sky falling. Its not even new news.
