The Guardian has released an additional NSA slide on PRISM

It reinforces that the NSA is intercepting fiber communications within the Internet and has direct access to the server farms of major companies including Microsoft, Google, Facebook and so on: NSA’s Prism surveillance program: how it works and what it can do | World news | guardian.co.uk.

It is not surprising that the NSA can intercept fiber directly (in fact, from what I have heard, they long ago developed non-invasive ways of tapping fiber). The key questions have to do with their collection of data – spying – on U.S. citizens.

And how can both these slides be correct and the denials from these companies be correct? Something is fishy.
