I happen to be a US citizen so I’m unlikely to be a target since the CIA is all about surveillance on outsiders (FBI is domestic)

All of that's off the table now with Trump in power. It's more than likely the CIA will be deployed against domestic targets.

I think that's unlikely, but even assuming it is, if spooks use a security/privacy tool, it's probably pretty good.
