I am certain that in their minds the KGB only monitored those likely to commit atrocities against the USSR and/or bring down that state.
The point is that NO such monitoring for any reason, without proper due process and many protections, is acceptable. What is going on is quiet, hidden, under the wraps, not transparent, without oversight, without due process and initiated in many cases from a small coterie of like minded folks.
