Well their and Snowdon's statement that the NSA is watching us over our TV sets is pure poppycock. With over fifty years in telecommunicatuion I know damn well they are not monitoring my telephone. Anyone who was forced to listen to my phone calls would be suicidal in three days.
Telephone companies mus keep callin number, called number and duration data otherwise how would the prepare the monthly invoice? Hell I wrote some that software when I was with Bell Canada. Then when I was in the special networks section we had some twit in government ask us to store it in real time. We would have had real time storage running from Montreal to Winnipeg.
Storage has a higher density these days but it is still a pointless task.
