Kishore Jethanandani @Davedgreat: I can see the danger of misuse of power and that is a constant for the use of police in any matter as we know. That is why standards have to be carefully defined. NSA went too far precisely...
Davedgreat2000 @Kishore, when it comes to terrorists i agree more needs to be done to catch the loan wolf operative. However, where is the line drawn, once they find out these methods work how many other people...
Kishore Jethanandani @Davedgreat: True, the point is at this time, the police appears to be too cautious given the fact that facts of lone terrorists were available in plain sight.
Davedgreat2000 @Kishore, yes I believe that would be the proper thing to do. I have heard of some police departments are using computers to stop crimes before they happen by looking at the data of the...
Kishore Jethanandani @Davedgreat: I was saying it can be cause for suveillance not arrest which would require a prima facie case to prevent crime. The surveillance should be based on a prima facie case of radicalization...
Davedgreat2000 Is the use of this data legel to use to arrest someone, who can say nope they had no intention of committing a crime/terror attack and was only researching for school or their own knoweldge? I mean...
Kishore Jethanandani We need standards to determine the need for surveillance. At some point, the Boston bombers acquired explosives which could have been detected if there was surveillance. The need for surveillance...

Kishore Jethanandani This looks cool and one among several other ways to collate data and try to make sense of it. Law enforcement needs an equivalent of an intelligence body with sociologists who can use these tools...
Kishore Jethanandani @Marianne: Interesting point about disguise. This may well be true for criminals, especially those who are in the business for a long time, but probably not for lone wolf terrorists who are wont...
CitySolver We need to start counter terror search using internet search analysis, not only of searches but where someone is continually accessign certain sites or related sites that could paint a picture of...
Marianne I believe I mentioned the Nametag app in one or two blogs of mine. This facial recognition app attempts to match a scanned face to online social profiles and public databases. It could have helped...
Marianne Your hunch may be correct. I am reading an article, "Defense Biometrics," from COMPUTER magazine (I'm a long time IEEE member). Written by an author from FBI, this person talked about how criminals...
Kishore Jethanandani I am not sure whether NSA needs to collect as much information as it is doing. My hunch is it could get from much less if the information is processed properly.
Kishore Jethanandani In most cases that I have looked at, the information was available but was ignored because of the way it was processed. In the Boston marathon bombing case, Russia had warned FBI about the Tsarnev...

Don't look now, but that lamppost you just passed in the airport terminal knows you didn't pay your property tax this quarter.

Cities like Sochi and Rio compete for years to host the Olympics. But if profit's the motive, perhaps they should focus on other events.
