Ce petit tweet du cofondateur de Wikipedia vaut son pesant d'or.
La diapo du tweet est tirée de cet article http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/jul/31/nsa-top-secret-program-online-data .

Les slides en question datent de 2008. A cette époque Facebook était encore en HTTP, ce qui rendait possible l'interception des données. En 2011 Facebook a commencé à chiffrer en SSL (uniquement la partie login https://www.facebook.com/blog/blog.php?post=486790652130). On peut imaginer que PRISM - programme de récupération du traffic directement chez le "fournisseur", derrière la terminaison SSL - est venu en réponse à ces changements qu'ont fait les sociétés, Google y compris.

En guise d'aide mémoire perso, voici une petite collection des principaux (selon moi) articles qui concernent ces révélations :
