As children we had to deal with that notion for years. It was drummed into our heads every December that a jolly old elf was doing surveillance on us from an Arctic outpost...

He sees you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake. He knows when you've been bad or good so be good for goodness sake.

I grew up assuming I was being watched. Of course knowing that the government is doing it is a little unnerving because they can haul you off to Gitmo, instead of sticking you with a lump of coal.
