Apple, Google and Facebook can store communications for evermore. And NSA can easily get a copy anytime, via a rubber stamp by a judge in the secret court.
Now, in light of this, are we all (the good guys) permitted to use strong encryption to protect our data in storage by these third parties... since we can't trust them to do so?
Unless we have a HIPAA-like law to cover all data, not just our medical records, then may we resort to self-help?

"There are certain categories of information which we do not provide to law enforcement or any other group because we choose not to retain it. For example, conversations which take place over iMessage and FaceTime are protected by end-to-end encryption so no one but the sender and receiver can see or read them. Apple cannot decrypt that data." https://www.apple.com/apples-commitment-to-customer-privacy/ https://www.apple.com/apples-commitment-to-customer-privacy/
