Well honestly, even as a fellow non-American, I think it's common sense that the US government should have to justify their actions only to US citizens.
If the other countries are concerned about the effects that PRISM can have on theirs, it should be up to their own governments to take the issue to the US.
It's kind of worrying (although not surprising in the least) that basically there hasn't been a serious complaint from anyone.

The Germans seem to manage a more mature attitude about their responsibility to the world. Perhaps countries should upgrade their civil rights to human rights.

Mind, I'm not blaming them. They are doing their own interests, as they should (and many of the countries affected are in that situation by their own faults only), but let's not pretend they are somehow different.
