gollark: Connections to websites themselves run over HTTPS, which I'm mostly trusting of (MITM attacks are a thing and the government does realistically have access to a cert I'll trust, but that's detectable), and my DNS resolution also runs over HTTPS.
gollark: I figure that if the government here actually wants to see the content of my internet traffic, they probably could individually muck with my connection/devices/whatever somehow, but also probably do not do this generally or particularly often.
gollark: Sure! But that doesn't mean they're actively being exploited all the time.
