That's true, but do you really believe that???  It's Sooooo easy just to
run a query against their master phone book to get names and addresses on
every call, and you can't tell me they wont do that without getting a
warrant first, should they decide there's something worth looking in to. 
They have the data, they'll query it, simple as that.

It don't bother me if they have all my calls either, but what does bother
me is doing it illegally and just wonder how much further they will go.  If
the poll mentioned that part of the equation, you can bet it wouldn't have
been 60% pro.
