Re:NSA collected 500M U.S. call records in 2017, a sharp ris... by jlgaddis on Friday May 04, 2018 @08:29PM (#16999526)
We knew five years ago that the NSA was receiving "billions of [call detail] records ... per day", just indiscriminately collecting every CDR they could -- from everyone (including my grandma and yours), not just criminals or "terrorists" or whomever the latest bogeyman is.

I have no reason to believe that that has changed, that they have stopped collecting all of this data that is so easily available to them.

With that in mind, I do not believe that "it is very unlikely any call" by anyone in my family was included in the catch. I believe it very likely that many calls by many people in my family was -- and continues to be -- included in their "net".
