What’s wrong with the NSA monitoring Internet traffic?

Questions for today: What is the difference between the NSA monitoring Internet traffic and the state police monitoring traffic along an interstate highway?  Especially when the NSA looks only at meta-data, how is that not like monitoring traffic as it goes by to look for speeders, unsafe drivers, wanted criminals, stolen vehicles, expired safety inspections, traffic patterns, etc.?  Discuss.
