for email held by Hotmail, Google, Facebook, and Twitter. Recently, we learned that about 20 million people per month are subjected to NSA profiling and get into the Agency's database because their number is called two hops out from targets. Then there are those who are entangled in the nets cast out by FISA warrants.

That's an awful lot of investigating of people in a system where Obama claimed there is "no data in there."
