Why do you assume that information should be public just because it was acquired through our tax dollars? The CIA has plenty of information that was collected using our tax dollars, but I doubt you'd advocate the release of all of that information.
Thus, you're improperly framing the question. The real issue is whether the benefit in public access to the information outweighs the potential harm.
The parent post is an unabashed rip-off of the old Saturday Night Live commercial, "Happy Fun Ball":

Smart idea, except that you'd have to pay a copyright fee for each of those "songs".
Why don't you register "millions or billions" of domain names while you're at it?
