"WASHINGTON (AFP) A draft US Army intelligence report has identified the popular micro-blogging service Twitter, Global Positioning System maps and voice-changing software as potential terrorist tools.
The report by the 304th Military Intelligence Battalion, posted on the website of the Federation of American Scientists (FAS), examines a number of mobile and web technologies and their potential uses by militants. The posting of the report on the FAS site was reported Friday by Wired magazine contributing editor Noah Shachtman on his national security blog "Danger Room" at wired.com. The report is not based on clandestine reporting but drawn from open source intelligence known as OSINT." --clip-- More at http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5jGd91R-NdcJLa8N6OBU76hbrVFyg ComputerWorld coverage at http://blogs.computerworld.com/node/12268/print The report [pdf]: http://www.fas.org/irp/eprint/mobile.pdf Juha-Matti _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
