Monitored them or used that as an excuse to watch lolcats and hang out on Facebook all day
Thinking about it, it doesn't seem that far fetched.
I mean, what exactly are they trying to document? I cannot think of anything other than trying to gauge a "political climate", which is pretty harmless. What else can they really do, track every damn user? Do they end up with a huge population map,

Of course, hardline political rebel-types are probably the most interesting ones, and as always, I bet they are going after the hippies, guitar-plunkers, pro-palestinians, and such, the most harmless of all "extremists"
(It was repeatedly revealed that while Breivik was preparing, Oslo police had ignored _several_ Interpol (and other) warnings about this fucker, while they were intensely monitoring scarf-wearing guitar-plunking pot-smoking hippies. AFTER Breivik, police revealed a recent report, where they were stunned discovering that hardline neo nazis were more dangerous than pot-smoking hippies. Who ARE these dipshits becoming national security cops!?)
