“The British government gave the U.S. lessons in how to spy on users of popular websites, including Youtube and Facebook, in real-time and without the consent of users or cyber companies.  The report unearths a slide presentation by British intelligence agency GCHQ, given to their U.S. counterparts in August 2012, detailing their ‘Squeaky Dolphin’ program that allows them to glean information from ‘the torrent of electronic data that moves across fiber optic cable and display it graphically on a computer dashboard,’ according to the NBC article.  Facebook and Google said they were not aware that governments were surveying this information and they had not granted permission.”
