I don't doubt the NSA is spying. I think making the assertion without documentation that Google et al. have huge teams of people dedicated to helping them spy is a bit beyond the pale.

Now imagine a bit of extra infrastructure, people to deal with communications, legal, etc., and you're in the millions.
