There's so little demand for privacy in the U.S, that politicians have no reason to work toward it. It'll stay that way until enough people refuse to engage with surveillance based services. I don't honestly see that happening. Even people I know who claim to care about privacy routinely violate their own privacy and that of other people for mere convenience.
