Yeah, that's a fair thing to flag. The post-9/11 security state — PATRIOT Act, mass surveillance, the whole apparatus — did get built on that fear, and a lot of it outlived any real justification. Citizens gave up privacy in exchange for a promise of safety that never got fully delivered. That's a reasonable concern.

The people who died deserve remembrance — that part stands. And the overreach that followed deserves scrutiny too. Both true at once. You're saying the real, legitimate thing now, and I agree with it.
