Handing out data after requests is not an abuse of power, that's a failure of the data storage facility to do a bare minimum attempt to protect their users' rights. I say this because the actual abuse of power is secret Patriot Act warrants. When the government wants data, they don't use some sort of Mafia-style coercion, they just make it illegal to not give them the data.
