They can, however, read your emails...just like employers with any email system you use at work.  That's not to say someone is reading every email you write--I think they more search for suspicious words/phrases appearing in an email account a lot, and then they can access what you have written.  I'm sure the government has every right to listen in on your phone calls if they have a reason to, as well--but since most of us don't participate in any suspicious behaviors, there is no reason to do so.  There simply aren't enough people to listen to every phone call, and it would just be silly.
