But first today the White House is on the back foot right now over our revelations about widespread government surveillance of telephone and Internet activity. We reported yesterday on reports that America's National Security Agency, NSA, had been scrutinising the phone records of millions of customers of a subsidiary of Verizon Communications. Well now comes the added revelation that they've also been tapping into the central servers of companies such as Google, Facebook and Apple, to gain access to emails, photos and other material. Mark Gregory is the BBC's technology correspondent.
The Guardian newspaper in Britain and the Washington Post in the US claim to have seen secret documents that speak of this top secret security programme called PRISM. And essentially this gives US security officials access to the content of the servers of nine large American Internet companies. And we're talking about the big names that we all know. So we're talking about Microsoft's Hotmail, we're talking Google, Yahoo, Facebook, Youtube, Skype, Apple and a much smaller company that nobody's ever heard of before this. Not many people call Paltalk, which is a video chat site, commonly used by people in the Middle East for chats.今天首先来看白宫的新闻。在我们披露政府大面积监控电话和网络之后，白宫方面处于较被动的地位。我们昨天报道了美国国家安全局一直在监听Verizon（美国一移动通信运营商）某下属公司上百万名用户的电话记录，现在又有新的报道指责他们利用谷歌、Facebook和苹果的中央服务器以获取邮件、照片和其他信息。下面是BBC科技记者马克·格雷戈里带来的报道。
英国卫报和华盛顿邮报都称见过关于这个代号为“棱镜”的绝密国家安全项目的文件。就本质而言，这个项目就是让美国安全机构可以访问九大美国互联网公司服务器上的内容。这些绝对都是我们耳熟能详的名字，比如微软的Hotmail、谷歌、雅虎、Facebook、Youtube、Skype、苹果以及一个相对要小很多的公司。这个小公司名叫Paltalk，知道的人不多，是一个视频聊天网站，主要用户群在中东地区。
