"Is It Reporting, Or Espionage?"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "July 25, 2006: The mainstream media has, under the cover of the Israeli incursions into Lebanon, managed to expose another intelligence effort. This time it is a total of eight data-mining programs used to assist analysts in locating terrorists and stopping them before they carry out their plans. Five of these were developed under the efforts of the Total Information Awareness program run by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and cancelled by Congress.
Tracking terrorists has become a high priority since the September 11 attacks. These efforts have included listening to their communications, tracking finances, and also trying to locate patterns indicating terrorist activity. These programs have helped break up several attacks, usually through arresting cells of terrorists (like the group in Florida). These efforts actually represent two different lines of research. One area is software that filters data to give analysts a much smaller haystack to search though. The other area is a group of programs that allow analysts from various agencies to collaborate via computer networks.
This is not the first time that intelligence efforts have been compromised by the mainstream media."
