But would they? The Snowden leaks were 6 years ago. I am assuming the government didn't just throw up their hands and give up after that...
edit: not to say they are specifically MITM'ing HTTPS widescale.

There are a lot easier ways to exfiltrate data than wholesale breaking TLS encryption and MITM'ing 295+ tbps of domestic traffic. That said, every super power is working on better decryption capabilities.
