It is collecting information but it's not specifically for a government. Facebook and Google also spy on their users. Should we ban them too?

  To be even more explicit, Facebook and Google collect info which the US government can and does request from them. See: Transparency Reports from both.

    Collecting data and complying with a warrant is not the same thing.
