I like this concept, imagine an analog example.
FBI "your Honor were seeking a violent drug crazed man he's African American and is between the ages of 13 to 70"
Judge "so you're seeking a release of records or a summons for DNA?"
FBI "no, we'd like to spy on every male in america darker then this shade" * hands over a color swatch*

The FBI will still illegally hack your computer anyway.

Good news! Roll out the honeypots, everybody. We'll be reeling in plenty of zerodays, and make our systems more secure that way long-term. Yay FBI!

so is this happening? Is there anything I can do to protect against this? I'm a bit of a noob with all this, but I do use tor and would like to avoid being hacked (not that they'd find anything very scandalous, but still)

The fear is strong with all branches of the federal machine.
