There's no way that it's just the UK skimming emails, websites, etc. I wouldn't be surprised if all major 'Western' countries were up to it. The idea that the Internet is anonymous and free is rapidly fading. A recent Murder trial in the UK featured evidence which was obviously obtained from Google (a list of searches and the date and time they were done).

I committed Facebook suicide about 2 years ago because I started to get the feeling that the less I put about myself on the Internet the better. That and the fact that it's fake, over sentimental, knee jerky, vacuous and the single, most targeted, marketing campaign tool on the planet.
