Definitely not effective, unless you go full 1986. Softer forms of surveillance may prevent some attacks, but still carry huge potential for abuse which is not even close to worth it IMO. We have to remember terrorism barely kills anyone in relative terms.

In US certainly, some parts of the world definitely have it worse.
But I think the fear and divide it generates between ethnicities/religions/countries is definitely higher.
