CIA Monitors YouTube For Intelligence - U.S. spies are looking increasingly online for intelligence and they've become major consumers of social media
Excerpt:
"In keeping with its mandate to gather intelligence, the CIA is watching YouTube.
U.S. spies, now under the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), are looking increasingly online for intelligence; they have become major consumers of social media.
"We're looking at YouTube, which carries some unique and honest-to-goodness intelligence," said Doug Naquin, director of the DNI Open Source Center (OSC), in remarks to the Central Intelligence Retirees' Association last October. "We're looking at chat rooms and things that didn't exist five years ago, and trying to stay ahead. We have groups looking at what they call 'Citizens Media': people taking pictures with their cell phones and posting them on the Internet.""
