Does the UAE gov't make it publicly known that it's monitoring all Facebook and Twitter accounts? At least users and potential users know in advance if that is the case.

Oh yes. It was publicly announced by the UAE Chief of Police. The Deputy Director of Anti-Electronic Crimes got interviewed about it and he said the monitoring was not a violation of public freedom, since the content is in a public space for all to see. Facebook and Twitter users are being more cautious now.
