Do you think the FBI/CIA/NSA monitors these forums?

[Mang]

We already know they monitor the social media heavy hitters like Twitter, Facebook, Reddit and Instagram. Steam has a very strong global userbase, so I think they do. At the very least they can enjoy seeing our favorite mascot

[Incarnate]

I would almost guarantee it. But even if it isn't you should assume everything you watch or write is being monitored anyway. We are basically living in 1984 and don't even know it.

Though it's probably some algorithm waiting for someone to utter certain keywords. Those poor SOBs are already overworked listening to your baby-monitor and running facial recognition software on every single Instagram/Facebook you post to track your exact location and that of everyone you hang out with.

it is kind of amazing that FBI don't stalk 4 of the chan often considering how much crazy people is on there

I don't see enough mlp here to signify a lot of 3-letter activity

not directly.

they could pay someone or use a software that monitors certain words and phrases like CIA, NSA, FBI.

and they don't count the people who use:

is this a trap?

[AnyBodyNeedATruePickMeUp]

they arrest people who commit crimes not someone who burst someones bubble egg head for throwing stones but yeah they watch people who dont agree with the coming age and when they do start arresting people over what they believe and say bubble egg heads like a lot of people wont be able to keep their mouths shut for stupid reasons not for good reasons

No game or game forum is being monitored. You all act like terrorists play games as a way to talk in secret. If you all think that then lay off the movies. Cause no terrorist would use a game to communicate with other terrorist's.

Perhaps you might want to lay off the movies also as by virtue of your statement it would make this the perfect place, not the least.
You also make the mistake of assuming a definition of a terrorist, infact to even bother using the word as not all perceived threats circle around the train of blowing stuff up and taking down the internet. This word along with criminal activity is a blanket cover these days not to mention a pretext to create and excuse.
If we are going to go down the ball park of a country then what it fears the most is anyone or anything that threatens the established order which encompasses a great many things.
So what we anywhere talk about, how we talk is a good marker for what is yet to come.

Nice science fiction. Terrorists are to busy planning their next attack to play video games.

Snowden leaks included documents revealing operations by the U.S National Security Agency (NSA) and U.K Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) to infiltrate online gaming platforms for the purposes of detecting criminal and terrorist communications and recruiting informants. World of warcraft and second life ring a bell.

So im afraid its not as a foolish thought to think these departments would and why not as everyone got up to all sorts of ways to communicate during the cold war, WW2 and no doubt through entire history.
