It's not so much the tech - it's the logistics. Kind of like "1984"'s
telescreens - how could they ever monitor ALL of them?
I would believe they have to capability to monitor any given line at a
moment's notice - perhaps hundreds of thousands at once - but this is a far
cry form recording every word.
