You're changing the subject.  Surveillance (sic) does not interfere in a 
person's activity and is itself a passive activity.  Packet filtering 
interferes with legitimate traffic and is not a passive activity.

While we're at it, let's make it illegal to use photocopiers and 
scanners, lord knows those are used for illegal activities.

How about we also outlaw cars, since those are used to commit crimes.

In fact, let's outlaw any device or technology that can be used to commit 
a crime of any sort.
