There is data mining on random mixes of suspected and unsuspected streams of data. This is to make initial selections of possible suspected information. This is the technique the NSA used. To me, it is not very different from the operation of search engines, or what they can do.

Recently, there was an incident with AOL. It brought a set of "anonymous" search queries of their customers out in the open. Many reports showed, using this information, it is easy to trace anonymous data to individuals and their behavior and interests.

There is little doubt a quick look through of the search history stored at large search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN offer a wealth on information. Don't think of using a "grep" on the contents of public mail systems like HOTMAIL or gmail.
