You are making fact out of fiction and also dealing with the wrong scenario.
If everyone's keystrokes are monitored by a builtin keylogger in each computer,
then the computer of any 'person of interest' is an open book to any 3-letter
agency that decides to find out what that person has on his/her computer.
This power will be widely used illegally no matter what safeguards are proposed.
And you are wearing more tinfoil than the dude in "Conspiracy Theory."
Just because there's a keylogger doesn't mean it's possible to access
that information. Firewall off SMTP. Oops, now it can't use its
built-in sendmail. Forbid inbound access, aww, there goes
SSH/telnet/rlogin access. For every technological problem, there is a
technological fix. Just ask the DVD Consortium how well CSS worked.
Better yet, ask Sony about their audio CD protection... I got your $2
hack right here, and it's called a "Sharpie".
Others have pointed out the futility of your Chicken Little rant. This
is your last scrap from me.
