U.S. Gov To Spider Internet

HopeSeekr of xMule writes "Perhaps as one of the first high profile uses of Alexa's WebSearch Platform, the U.S. government plans to search, link and reference every news site, blog and email on the Internet, using sophisticated AI codenamed ADVISE to do the correlations. Unlike traditional dataveilance like Echelon, ADVISE aims to find terrorists before they strike and even deduce their motivations in wanting to commit their crimes. Part of the breakthrough is a way for humans to view data as 3D holographic images with tech recently used at the Superbowl."

    The 50.5% of the Americans are too dumb to figure this stuff out. They think as long as they can get drunk, f*ck a few females (or males or both), they have their freedom. As long as they can eat at McDonalds, get fat; watch some tv, they're all set in life. This doesn't even consider the dumbazz we consider our prez who has all the technology in the world to find OBL but can't figure out what to do since his head is dipped in oil with his daddy.
