Doesn't Google already have this information? Android certainly used to 'sync' your WIFI passwords with Google, in a format that they could decrypt.

Just bear in mind that from what we know the German and British governments were all in with the NSA and do even more surveillance on their own citizens than the U.S. does (both, by the way, also using terrorism as the pretext - IRA and Bahder Meinhoff respectively). The U.S. is by far not the worst actor in this arena.
