I wonder whether this has anything to do with the massive multi-billion dollar secret NSA data center going up in Utah and expected to be fully operational in 2013. Tech experts report that this center is likely capable of intercepting the entirety of global communications on public and private networks and retaining all of this data indefinitely. The center will also include the most potent computing power in the world capable of the extreme number of computations necessary to crack modern encryption methods.
Any company that voluntarily (or otherwise, as Obama, the defense dept and Congress have suggested!) shares data with the government should assume that all such data is being retained indefinitely.
