Unless of course you have authorization from norcal or all the recipients of those 2 million packets to monitor. Since norcal isn't your customer, I don't suppose you have any paper showing they gave you permission to collect and publish information about their traffic.What type of monitoring are you talking about? Or are you saying I cannot filter packets through my network as I please?
Of course you can. Dean likes to argue that any looking at, smelling of, blocking of, rerouting of, counting packets of, etc., data is wiretapping (the topic of 18 USC 2511).
