Google, CIA to Fund "Recorded Future" Startup Monitoring Websites, Blogs & Twitter

This is scary.


Investors at the CIA and Google are backing a company called "Recorded Future" that monitors tens of thousands of websites, blogs and Twitter accounts in real time in order to find patterns, events, and relationships that may predict the future.

The news comes on amidst Google’s so-called "Wi-Spy" scandal, that refers to revelations that Google’s Street View cars operating in some 30 countries snooped on private WiFi networks over the last three years.
