everything is being recorded =)
Just imagine what will happen if some hacker is able to access this gigantic database of phone-calls, videos and chats. Or it can be even a rogue employee of the FBI, who want to sell this data to third parties for a profit. Can you imagine the consequences? The lives of a lot of people will be ruined. We will be seeing a large spike in murders and suicides.
The government tends to abuse their power, and what we see is only a fraction of what is going on. Spying on everyone isn't going to help their "terrorist fight" or whatever.
Why doesn't the government gives us a backdoor to all of their private communications as well?
