Twitter for Terrorists PDF Print E-mail

In this article, Breitbart notes a report from the Federation of American Scientists in which Twitter and other technologies might be used by terrorists and others.   Twitter has been used by various groups from Communists, socialists and other groups for mass public action in demonstrations and could be used for surveillance techniques.    The article, " Terrorist 'tweets'? US Army warns of Twitter dangers", adds that GPS software and voice changing software might also become tools of terrorists.

A chapter on "Potential for Terrorist Use of Twitter" notes that Twitter members sent out messages, known as "Tweets," reporting the July Los Angeles earthquake faster than news outlets and activists at the Republican Convention iin Minneapolis used it to provide information on police movements.

"Twitter has also become a social activism tool for socialists, human rights groups, communists, vegetarians, anarchists, religious communities, atheists, political enthusiasts, hacktivists and others to communicate with each other and to send messages to broader audiences," the report said.

Hacktivists refers to politically motivated computer hackers.

"Twitter is already used by some members to post and/or support extremist ideologies and perspectives," the report said.

So if terrorists groups might consider using Twitter to surveil potential targets, then couldn't the Citizen Soldier use Twitter with his Action Brigade to watch potential Terrorist Suspects?   Of course, the Looney Left will say that's Big Brother operating - right, a group of citizen keeping an eye on their community - but Terrorists using the same technology shouldn't be stopped.
