I think the companies are also at fault. If instead of illegal surveillance the companies were being asked to illicitly expose employees to potentially harmful radiation, the moral culpability would be more obvious, regardless of the letter of the FISC laws their corporate counsel was shown.
There was clearly a decision on the part of the employees of the companies involved not to risk their own livelihoods by simply going along with what the government wanted.
I'd argue that major atrocities are possible via the combined impact of institutionally diffused acts of moral depravity such as those committed by our beloved tech companies.
