The top-secret PRISM program allows the U.S. intelligence community instant and real time access from nine Internet companies to a wide range of digital information, including e-mails, all internet credit card transactions, Skype conversations and stored data of any and all kinds, in the US and the whole world. The program is court-approved but does not require individual warrants. Instead, it operates under a broader authorization from federal judges who oversee the use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Some documents describing the program were first released by The Washington Post on June 6. The newly released documents below give additional details about how the program operates, including the levels of review and supervisory control at the NSA and FBI. The documents also show how the program interacts with the Internet companies. After communications information is acquired, the data are processed and analyzed by specialized systems that handle voice, text, video, pictures and "digital network information" that includes the locations of the messages, who sent the message and unique device signatures.
