I might have missed something, but I though Google at least did get a pass for prism because not only were they not involved voluntarily but they reacted to the news by going all out in encrypting internal communications in an effort to make sure it couldn't happen again. Or am I confusing 2 separate programs?

>Or am I confusing 2 separate programs?

You are. PRISM is a lawful program that Google agreed to be a part of in 2009. Google's data centers were hacked (or the link through the dark fiber was) by the NSA and that's when they started encrypting that link.

This is, at the very least, debatable: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PRISM_(surveillance_program)#A...

Correct.Google reacted the same way as other companies did for PRISM.

But they didn't know that their data was also accessed via other means & they took action to prevent it.
