"The GCHQ mass tapping operation has been built up over five years by attaching intercept probes to transatlantic fibre-optic cables where they land on British shores carrying data to western Europe from telephone exchanges and internet servers in north America.
This was done under secret agreements with commercial companies, described in one document as "intercept partners"."

It is related. There was a question as to whether edits and other activity on Wikipedia were being swept up. Obviously they are. Whether activities of interest to intelligence agencies are logged or ever used or how is another matter.

In our earlier discussion about PRISM. Whether the intelligence agencies could, if they felt it within their remit, access edits and other actions, and, of course, passwords. Obviously they can easily if they are not encrypted. Common sense, on the other hand will inform you that nothing we do would be of interest to an intelligence agencies focused on actual threats.
