Sorry, I'm not interested in you making a determination that the private lives and conversations of others are similar to yours, nor do I accept any premise that simply because you've judged people to 'not be terrorists' and the risk of governmental abuse to be low, that there is no real risk of agencies abusing such data. Your justifications are personal, and frankly, should have no bearing on other people's lives. If you can't imagine real cases of private conversation (or DNS lookups, or whatever) being used to profile and target particular groups for fairly undemocratic reasons, then that's a failure of your imagination. We are not all in the same boat, especially if by 'boat' you mean we all socialise with the same people, have the same political beliefs and actions, or even share our sexual orientation.
