Catherine, data is not stored on RIM's servers, it just transits through them.

Snooping is only the half of it, I believe.
I think the other half is controlling the information being received by the population.
As I say, I don't think BIS or BES per se is the worry for them, it's the fact that BBM has caught fire with young people, and they are able to receive information from sources outside of the control of the regime, and very easily, very efficiently, pass that information on to others.
