As news continues to break about the NSA keeping everyone’s cell phone records, it turns out that was the tip of the Iceberg. The NSA has a Data-Mining program called PRISM that collects everything a person does online. It gathers data from every ISP or Social media server and stores them. This clearly goes beyond anti-terror efforts and its actually quite scary what is going.

The National Security Agency and the FBI are tapping directly into the central servers of nine leading U.S. Internet companies, extracting audio and video chats, photographs, e-mails, documents, and connection logs that enable analysts to track one target or trace a whole network of associates, according to a top-secret document obtained by The Washington Post.

The program, code-named PRISM, has not been made public until now. It may be the first of its kind. The NSA prides itself on stealing secrets and breaking codes, and it is accustomed to corporate partnerships that help it divert data traffic or sidestep barriers. But there has never been a Google or Facebook before, and it is unlikely that there are richer troves of valuable intelligence than the ones in Silicon Valley.

Equally unusual is the way the NSA extracts what it wants, according to the document: “Collection directly from the servers of these U.S. Service Providers: Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, Facebook, PalTalk, AOL, Skype, YouTube, Apple.”

PRISM was launched from the ashes of President George W. Bush’s secret program of warrantless domestic surveillance in 2007, after news media disclosures, lawsuits and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court forced the president to look for new authority.

That is a remarkable figure in an agency that measures annual intake in the trillions of communications. It is all the more striking because the NSA, whose lawful mission is foreign intelligence, is reaching deep inside the machinery of American companies that host hundreds of millions of American-held accounts on American soil.

The technology companies, which knowingly participate in PRISM operations, include most of the dominant global players of Silicon Valley, according to the document. They are listed on a roster that bears their logos in order of entry into the program: “Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, Facebook, PalTalk, AOL, Skype, YouTube, Apple.” PalTalk, although much smaller, has hosted significant traffic during the Arab Spring and in the ongoing Syrian civil war.

This information was gathered for Data-Mining and I have a theory. The Obama Regime used the data collected and gave it to OFA help with their re-election. If the data was really used for anti-terrorism, then how come Major Hassan or the Tsarnaev Brothers were not caught. I am convince that PRISM and the IRS audits of Right leaning groups are interconnected and was where OFA got their information.

I am just speculating, so do not take my theory as gospel. Reagrdless, this amount of Government Data-Mining should be chilling to any American.
