And as usual, when I wrote I knew calls were intercepted

21. Which explains all those massive data collection centers right?

Come on, get serious for a minute will you? Here's the link again in case you didn't bother clicking it.

A project of immense secrecy, it is the final piece in a complex puzzle assembled over the past decade. Its purpose: to intercept, decipher, analyze, and store vast swaths of the world’s communications as they zap down from satellites and zip through the underground and undersea cables of international, foreign, and domestic networks. The heavily fortified $2 billion center should be up and running in September 2013. Flowing through its servers and routers and stored in near-bottomless databases will be all forms of communication, including the complete contents of private emails, cell phone calls, and Google searches, as well as all sorts of personal data trails—parking receipts, travel itineraries, bookstore purchases, and other digital “pocket litter.” It is, in some measure, the realization of the “total information awareness” program created during the first term of the Bush administration—an effort that was killed by Congress in 2003 after it caused an outcry over its potential for invading Americans’ privacy.

Emphasis mine on the bold domestic. Come on man, get serious. Do you think they would build a two billion dollar facility, one of many such two billion dollar facilities just to know who we called without knowing what we said?

They said that the images from the buck naked scanners would not be kept, then they insisted that technology be included to rapidly transfer the images to a database. They said that they wouldn't do a lot of things, then later admit they were, but for our own protection.
