“Debates over Extremism on the Internet”

SNIPPET: “Western recruits are more likely to be brought in via the Internet than Middle Eastern and North African recruits because they have higher access to the Internet, less direct contact with AQ militancy in person, and thus need the Internet to build an affinity for and a connection to AQ.”

I used to know people who donated part of their processing power to SETI - allowing their computer to work in the background looking for signs of non-random, intelligence generated information from space.
I have often thought that a better use of such power would be scanning the internet for jihadi stuff hidden in pictures or wherever.

OTOH, coming to a government near you, a slight redefinition of terrorist and we are all in trouble.
