We have known what PRISM is for almost a decade now (since we saw Snowden's slides for it), and it is neither what you nor smoldesu claim it to be. The FBI issues a court order to tap a particular account, and the company complies by forwarding that account's email and messages. Then PRISM ingests that data into NSA databases. |

And if I'm not mistaken it's illegal for an US business entity to directly say that they are co-operating with the NSA or other such US institutions, so Apple actually sending messages to their users warning them about such co-operation might be also illegal (I also feel that the canary tests have failed their intended mission, nobody has time to decipher those messages in the minutest of details).
