Your points one and three have no bearing here. There are many actual victims of what the NSA has done and the wrong doing is well documented, by the very files Snowden has provided us.

As to your point two: We are still talking about real evidence that criminal abuse by high governmental authority has taken place. One can not use the argument of ownership to prevent the police seizing evidence of a crime from one's home. The same principle would seem to apply here.
