I think the NSA could twist arms in the U.S. and I think that they could have a deal with the U.K. and maybe Canada, what I have HUGE doubts about is how they transport all of that data back to their data centres, unless they have a massive quantity of dark (private) fibre that no one knows about.
It does not appear to be a centralized architecture. According to slides, they have servers situated all around the world. Per slide 5, there are 500+ servers. According to slide 7, there are 700+ servers at 150 sites throughout the world. The reason for the difference in numbers of servers is not readily apparent. When an analysts performs a query, the servers return the appropriate data. Jeff

They would have to have secret agreements with all of the Tier 1 carriers. Sure sounds far fetched! Gary B On 08/01/2013 03:51 PM, XF wrote: Right. But where are their tap ? In Internet Exchange Point ? In AS ? And how can they do that ? "Hello, I'm NSA, can I get a TAP on your network" :-) This would say that ISP agree and the amount of data to transfer would be so vast . How can they transfer all this amount of data into their system ??

They have to be tapping all of the major traffic exchange sites in the U.S. to get this kind of data. Gary B On 08/01/2013 11:31 AM, XF wrote:Did you understood how they collect data ? This is not clear for me...ISP backdoor ? Optical tap on sub marine wire ?
