Any source about this "voluntary PRISM-like setup for the NSA"? And that this thing was the hack vector?

I assume it's

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/chine...

but it wasn't "PRISM-like", it was an internal database of accounts under court ordered surveillance (in this case, orders specifically "issued under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act"), and it wasn't the attack vector, it was apparently the attack target.
