That is stupid... I would expect different posts from someone that has been here for too long...
NSA spying on your e-mails and your neighboor spying on your e-mails are not the same thing. Securing e-mails help with avoiding "regular" people getting your information... It also protects in case of a security breach, etc etc.
Also, NSA spying is not impossible to avoid. As far as we know, they don't have the capabilities to decrypt e-mail (not well encrypted e-mail atleast). End to end encryption would probably stop NSA.
