If you look deep enough in the WordPress code, you'll find this line:

$protected_title_format = apply_filters('protected_title_format',
__('Protected: %s'));

That call to apply_filters is what links the internals of WordPress to
your filter function. This bit in particular is what you're wanting:

 __('Protected: %s')

That is what gets passed into your function as the first parameter. In
this case, it's a translatable string.
