What makes you think PRISM collects data about everyone? BLARNEY/FAIRVIEW are their "upstream data collection" programs. PRISM isn't one of their dragnets, so it confuses me that people are only talking about it. And what about the "give us all data for everyone each day" orders to phone companies? Why aren't we talking about that?

It mystifies me why everyone is so focused on PRISM, there is zero logical basis - and I'm starting to suspect it's intentional that the most innocuous program is taking up the majority of media time.
