I need to stop reading these things. I just become more and more misanthropic as days go by.

To be fair, this makes perfect sense. It allows compliance with wiretap warrants. Which are perfectly reasonable.
This is bloody everything from a particular endpoint, and not in an application specific manner. There is very little but storage reqs and someone getting uppity keeping this from becoming a dragnet type of surveillance mechanism.
Every router is technically capable of doing this. It's just firewall rules and pcap. Not sure this is front-page worthy.
Welp. That's news to me. Thought it was just Telco's and not bleedy every bloody Networking equipment vendor out there. And especially not on every MitM VoiP providers. This clinches the death of Skype though. This is why we can't have nice things. I need to stop reading these things. I just become more and more misanthropic as days go by.

it should come as no surprise that those devices can log the data passing through it.

They are not. This is broadband. This goes far beyond pen-registers. This is bloody everything from a particular endpoint, and not in an application specific manner. There is very little but storage reqs and someone getting uppity keeping this from becoming a dragnet type of surveillance mechanism.

It depends, I've got some junipers that only pass the application processor the first N bytes of a packet, and even captures are limited to the first N bytes. Vendor docs say that if you need captures, you should do them on the switch, or use DPI and route everything through the application processor.
