Facebook ex-CTO joined NSA not too long ago, that might have helped?

Probably not as much as FB co-founder offering his company Palantir services to government on people's intelligence.

I also suspect that Palantir is involved.

Let's not forget about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narus_(company)

Haha, suspect. You know their tool for importing new types of data into a Palantir system is called Prism, right? Aggregating data from different sources and linking it is all they do.
