Information gained through any type of wiretapping intended to catch terrorists should legally be allowed to be used ONLY to arrest terrorists and thwart terror plots. The confidentiality of anything else overheard should be way beyond the class of attorney-client privledge, and into the realm of what a priest hears in a confessional. That way the government gets to do its job of protecting us, and we don't need to be concerned because we're protected by law.
