You don't think the NSA/DHS has a giant social graph database of US citizens? I'd be shocked if they didn't.

I don't, no.

I do think they are obeying the letter of the legal mandates and have a social graph of all non citizens who have ever been to the US, or interacted with anyone from the US. But not US citizens, no.

Are you familiar with the whistleblower Edward Snowden?
