Certain rights apply to everyone. For example, if the federal government has decided to assert the right to listen in on a conversation between a suspected terrorist and his lawyer, then everyone's right to counsel has been effected. If the govenment has asserted the right to go through people's private things and records without probably cause, then everyone's 4th Amendment rights have been effected.

Personally, I am not aware of my being affected in any way by the Patriot Act or any other changes brought about since 9/11.
