CALEA was enacted in 1994, well before the recent issues with the NSA.
I don't like what the NSA is doing either, but companies like Sprint are obligated to provide these sorts of things to law enforcement for other reasons than just NSA spying. It's also for other legal investigation using warrants.
They shouldn't be abusing it by collecting more than they're due, regardless of how anyone feels about the NSA.
