Its shocking for americans because they're american. Much like the NSA scandal is shocking for europeans because they're europeans.
I think you're applying a causation without correlation here. Under what conditions/preconditions should things be protected under "secrecy of correspondence for all the people"?
Note I don't necessarily disagree, but there are multiple competing interests here and I don't always think that the idea of secret communication overrides societal benefits to being able to view things that aren't attempted to be secret.
