This is a strawman or reduction to the absurd (I can't decide which) and it is throughly unhelpful to convincing anyone of anything - I'm getting rather tired of seeing it. There is a huge difference between refusing to have a lock on your front door and being okay with advertising to pay for a free service. There is also a huge difference between publicly broadcasting your email and only the government having access to it. Here's a hint: The NSA is not the general public.
