Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean
they're not out to get you!
:-)
We had some difficulties with college administrators that resulted in,
"The question is not 'are you paranoid?';
the question is 'are you paranoid enough?'"
("There is no expectation of privacy for any actions taken on the
college's computers nor telephones", even one administrator who would
temporarily join Yahoo groups in order to search archives for any
disparaging remarks! [Hey, John W, eat shit and die!])
It's not "they" (meaning some state sponsered spy program) that's the
big problem, it's the hundreds of spam malware that's sent using email
and image or other "auto loading features" of mail programs as an attack
vector.
It's why everyone I know who isn't really computer saavy and runs windows
has to wipe and reinstall regularly.
