Why Was Apple Late To The PRISM Party?

If there's one striking thing about those PRISM slides, other than their hideous aesthetics, it's that Apple's allocated yellow oval, instead of a date, has the words "(added Oct 2012)" underneath it. That difference is most striking when you consider the fact that Apple competitor Microsoft cooperated with the government a full five years earlier.
