I can see the logic but the problem is the government doesn't have a record of actually using this information as intended. I remember there was a controversy during the Bush administration where the CIA workers were spending their time listening in on phone sex between service personnel and their spouses/significant others here at home and not on tracking terror threats down.
And then the conspiracy theorist in me wonders if some level of government couldn't potentially use sensitive-but-not-illegal personal information as blackmail on certain citizens.
