Regarding the capture of geolocation data, according to The Atlantic article (http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2013/07/nsa-admits-it-analyzes-more-peoples-data-previously -revealed/67287/) with a quote from NSA Deputy Director Chris Inglis, "We are not collecting that data, under this program."
The weasel-words phrase is of course, "under this program". Given the track record of NSA statements and their relation to the truth you can interpret this as you will.
From looking at the denial, and reading some messages around the web from insiders, the impression I'm getting is that the involvement of these Internet corporations has primarily been surrendering copies of their SSL certs to the NSA.
