1) The Nixon's Enemies List -- wikipedia.org
The official purpose, as described by the White House Counsel's Office, was to "screw" Nixon's political enemies, by means of tax audits from the Internal Revenue Service, and by manipulating "grant availability, federal contracts, litigation, prosecution, etc."[3] In a memorandum from John Dean to Lawrence Higby (August 16, 1971), Dean explained the purpose of the list:
“This memorandum addresses the matter of how we can maximize the fact of our incumbency in dealing with persons known to be active in their opposition to our Administration; stated a bit more bluntly -- how we can use the available federal machinery to screw our political enemies.[3]”

The DHS Social Media Buzzwords List --
geekosystem.com
Thanks to a Freedom of Information Act request by the Electronic Privacy Information Center [EPIC], some documentation pertaining to social media monitoring was released, documentation that just happened to contain the full list -- presumably -- of words that the DHS likes to keep an eye on. Ostensibly, this isn’t expressly for hunting down potential terrorists and other ne’er-do-wells, but rather for monitoring trends in general -- meme tracking -- and keeping any eye on the way events unfold on social media. [...]
Without further ado, here’s a full list of buzzwords organized by the topic with which they are associated, as far as the DHS is concerned:
Exercise
Cops
Law enforcement
Authorities
Disaster assistance
Cloud
Biological
Epidemic
Hazardous
National infrastructure
Metro
Grid
Power
Smart
Electric
Failure or outage
Black out
Brown out
Port
Dock
Bridge
Canceled
Delays
Service disruption
Power lines
[...]
That's a small sampling of words that could get you a DHS Watch List, according to the excellent research of
epic.org:
In February 2011, the Department of Homeland Security announced that the agency planned to implement a program that would monitor media content, including social media data. The proposed initiatives would gather information from "online forums, blogs, public websites, and messages boards" and disseminate information to "federal, state, local, and foreign government and private sector partners." The program would be executed, in part, by individuals who established fictitious usernames and passwords to create covert social media profiles to spy on other users. The agency stated it would store personal information for up to five years.
Think I'll
shud-up now ... Uh oh, too late.
Well long as I'm on a roll the radar ...
3) The No Fly List -- wikipedia.org
The No Fly List is a list, created and maintained by the United States government's Terrorist Screening Center (TSC),[1] of people who are not permitted to board a commercial aircraft for travel in or out of the United States. The list has also been used to divert away from U.S. airspace aircraft not flying to or from the U.S.[2] The number of people on the list rises and falls according to threat and intelligence reporting. As of 2011, the list contained about 10,000 names.[3][4] In 2012, the list doubled in size to about 21,000 names. [5] The list -- along with the Secondary Security Screening Selection, which tags would-be passengers for extra inspection -- was created after the September 11 attacks in 2001.
The No Fly List is different from the Terrorist Watch List, a much longer list of people said to be suspected of some involvement with terrorism.[6] The Terrorist Watch List contained around 400,000 names as of summer 2011, according to the TSC.[7][8] In 2013, the Terrorist Watch List had increased to 875,000 names. [9]
The list has been criticized on civil liberties and due process grounds, due in part to the potential for ethnic, religious, economic, political, or racial profiling and discrimination. It has also raised concerns about privacy and government secrecy. Finally, it has been criticized as costly,[10] prone to false positives,[11] and easily defeated.[12]
The No Fly List, the Selectee List and the Terrorist Watchlist were created by the administration of George W. Bush and retained by the administration of Barack Obama. U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) said in May 2010: “The no-fly list itself is one of our best lines of defense.”[13]

The Kill List --
wikipedia.org
Disposition Matrix
The Disposition Matrix is a database that United States officials describe as a "next-generation capture/kill list".[1] Developed by the Obama Administration beginning in 2010, the "Disposition Matrix" goes beyond existing kill lists, and creates a blueprint for tracking, capturing, rendering, or killing suspected enemies of the US government. It is intended to become a permanent fixture of American policy.[1] The process determining criteria for killing is not public, but has been heavily shaped by presidential counterterrorism adviser John Brennan.[2]
Though White House, National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) and Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) spokesmen have declined to comment on the database, officials have stated privately that kill lists will expand "for at least another decade", if not indefinitely. One official stated, "It’s a necessary part of what we do."[1] Paul R. Pillar, the former deputy director of the CIA’s counterterrorism center, has stated, "We are looking at something that is potentially indefinite."[1]
The database's existence was revealed by a three part series published in The Washington Post. The Post noted that as of their publication, the number of civilian and militant casualties resulting from American drone strikes would soon exceed the number of people killed in the September 11th attacks.[1]
[...]
The Disposition Matrix database catalogues biographies, locations, associates, and affiliations of suspects. It also catalogues strategies for finding, capturing, or killing suspects, or subjecting them to extraordinary rendition.[1] The database continues to direct American operations in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen, and will facilitate expanded operations in Algeria, Egypt, Mali, Libya, Iran, and throughout east Africa.[1]

Those are some "Lists" you might like to avoid.
There's nothing so chilling, as being type-casted and branded, by those with an "indefinite" agenda ... and some very over-reaching goals and seemingly limitless funds ...
