Well, raw SIGINT would be social media and other tech companies (google, amazon, verizon) basically handing data straight over to the government.

It's not too hard for any company to move this data either, as it's all hosted on AWS. So, you could just instantly transfer from amazon about 99.9% of web traffic as well. The ISP would also be handing directly over via AWS I suspect.

The raw data is anonymized (probably before being handed over) but what is the real definition of anonymized today anyway? Just removing a name? Is it also an IP address? Is it still possible to read someone's typing and mannerisms, patterns and such like a fingerprint if you have near full access to data? If you ever need to unmask it's really just a Federal/FISA warrant search in AWS away. Imagine a world we'd have to type in riddles and weird codes to say anything at all important. Weird.

How easy is a puzzle to complete from scratch vs the final piece? "I'd like to solve the puzzle."

So, it goes to the government and the government is saying "we take this data and give it directly to every single spook, so they can use it how they want" to.

I already knew that, as did most of you. We at least suspected it.

However, it was not supposed to be proved so matter of fact for 22 years.

That says a lot about the world they wanted to build. Of course, that's only the upstream. What of the downstream? You can find the documentation for the upstream in this leak here, by the government document. Where to find the downstream portion? It's just half the SCROLL OF DOMINATION spell.

It's found in the companies themselves. Like, you'd totes have to buy a tech company to see it. It would be like waging war to do it. Like capturing a general and showing his corpse on TV, memeing on it. Like Ghaddafi.
