The key distinction I needed to get there was “foreign partners”.
As you'll know, there are agreements internationally with certain partners that there will not be surveillance—amongst, particularly, the Five Eyes—on our citizens.
However, I would say from my position in national security that you must be concerned, that you should be aware that foreign states that are not partners would absolutely be utilizing these types of tools and techniques. I see around this room many electronic devices. All of you are using them as much as anyone in society today, and you must be concerned and must be aware that you are being targeted. I have very little doubt about that.
