Very interesting. Especially in light of the recent "NSA spying on US citizens" articles. Someone had mentioned an interesting loophole that is exploited and that data can always be collected about anyone and stored. "Search" does not occur until a human acts to retrieve that data. Also it seems there is no historical limit on the data. So if at any point you become a "person of interest" it is theoretically possibly they could have access to all the data you ever generated since birth, if you happen to be 70 years old at the time.
You overestimate prosecutors by a large margin here.

On an unrelated note, I have always admired Socrates' response to Crito.
