I agree that monitoring every piece of communication will reduce hopes of preventing the future attacks. This is because the intelligence agencies will have too much information that they have no time to act on.
The United States intelligence agencies are bombarded with information and taking time to authenticate it can lead to delays and as a result the attackers will have time to carry out their evil plans. This was the case with 9/11 attack, the intelligence agencies were aware the nation was threatened but the information they had did not help in preparedness (Rowley, 2014).
I think our intelligence agencies have taken a lot of steps in ensuring intelligence information is shared with relevant authorities in time for action.

But, we might be worse than we were in 2001. The technology advancement presents threats that that are difficult to detect, especially, radicalization of lone wolfs. These individuals are the major threat that intelligence agencies are yet to know how they plan their attacks and carry them out (DHS, 2021).
