The FBI sends a data request for specific accounts' data to the data provider. The data provider's lawyers review the request and if nothing is amiss, they configure a wiretap on those accounts that sends data to the FBI. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/08/technology/tech-companies-...

Huh? There is no secret interpretation that allows Section 702 requests to violate the Fourth Amendment. The only program in Snowden's leaks that illegally collected Americans' data was the phone metadata program.
No, it isn't. Where did you get this ridiculous notion? PRISM is a data integration program between the NSA and the FBI. It shows this right in Snowden's leaked slides. https://zdnet2.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/r/2014/10/05/c3fe17c5-4c...
