1,000 physical searches is not exactly unreasonable for the federal government, given that it's responsible for more than 300 million citizens. The New York Police Department in one year alone served almost 3,000 warrants to actually invade people's homes and search for narcotics. And that was 1997[1]. I would also point out that GMail has more than 400 million users. Investigation of 2,000 of them does not constitute mass surveillance or evidence that it's too easy to get people's data. Is it really outrageous for 0.0006% of the population to be persons of legitimate interest in investigations?
