OK, we all know they're already doing it.
But now it's common knowledge. The question is, How many of you are spy-worthy? I don't think you Obama-worshipping, vaccine taking robots will have anything to worry about. ![]() In fact, you are HELPING the agenda. ![]() ------------------------------------------ from democracynow.org (yes I'm aware Amy Goodman promotes Global Warming Fraud and UN) CIA Invests in Software Firm Monitoring Blogs, Twitter Wired magazine has revealed the investment arm of the Central Intelligence Agency has invested in a software firm called Visible Technologies that specializes in monitoring social media sites, including blogs, Flickr, YouTube, Twitter and Amazon. Wired reporter Noah Shachtman writes, “America’s spy agencies want to read your blog posts, keep track of your Twitter updates—even check out your book reviews on Amazon.” ........... AMY GOODMAN: When it was working for Hormel. So, I see here you’ve got trillions of dollars being spent on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, actually trillions. And it seems like it’s very ripe and open money that can’t be tracked. It can also develop the spy technology under the guise of just war. NOAH SHACHTMAN: That’s true, although the Pentagon also has plenty of money to—independent of the war costs, to develop spy technology. And the intelligence agencies, remember, their budgets are largely a black box. We don’t know how much they spend. And so, you know, there’s plenty of places where money for spy technology can be funded out of. AMY GOODMAN: And this issue of how Hormel used Visible, now In-Q-Tel buying into it? NOAH SHACHTMAN: Mm-hmm. Well, I mean, I don’t know too much more than the fact that they used it. I don’t have a lot of details. But, you know, the way Visible works is it kind of grabs all the blogs and all the tweets out there, then it sorts for certain key words, it sorts for a sentiment about whether things are positive or negative, and then it also sorts based on which bloggers and which tweeters are really important or not. And you can sort of see over time how a conversation develops. Technology then allows companies or the government to respond directly within a blog or within a Facebook page to those people. So, who knows? The commenter—the next commenter on your blog might be the CIA. |

I think, they just want clear and unbiased source of news and catch some wacko jobs on the process. They can come and visit my blog any day. ![]() |
