Google Ventures, the investment arm of Google, has injected a sum of up to $10 million, as has In-Q-Tel -- which handles investments for the CIA and the wider intelligence network -- into a company called Recorded Future.

The company describes its analytics as "the ultimate tool for open-source intelligence".

Wired's defence analyst, Noah Schachtman, has a detailed report on the joint venture:

"...it scours tens of thousands of websites, blogs and Twitter accounts to find the relationships between people, organizations, actions and incidents — both present and still-to-come. In a white paper, the company says its temporal analytics engine "goes beyond search" by "looking at the 'invisible links' between documents that talk about the same, or related, entities and events."

The idea is to figure out for each incident who was involved, where it happened and when it might go down. Recorded Future then plots that chatter, showing online "momentum" for any given event."

Recorded Future "continually scans thousands of news publications, blogs, niche sources, trade publications, government web sites, financial databases and more," according to it's portfolio.

It sifts through millions of posts and conversations taking place on blogs, YouTube, Twitter and Amazon to "assemble actual real-time dossiers on people."

It is also being integrated with Google Earth, which, as Schachtman points out in his piece, was seeded with In-Q-Tel/CIA investment. This integration will allow real time tracking of the locations of persons or groups as part of the overall intelligence dossier.

Recorded Future takes in vast amounts of personal information such as employment changes, personal education and family relations. The video also shows categories covering pretty much everything else, including entertainment, music and movie releases, as well as other innocuous things like patent filings and product recalls.

  • The thing is all these data mining projects are vulnerable to data poisoning attacks and there is little that can be done about that. It is a cool looking app though.

  • Amazing software and way to gather intelligence regarding anybody anywhere in the world at any time.. Makes you a bit nervous when you realize that if we as enterpreneurs are allowed to know about this, what kind of software and intelligence gathering systems they ll have developed that are currently secret..? In the end let's not forget what CIA stands for..

  • @firstwave2 I never said you had anything to do with them. I was talking TO them. They can spy me all they want I don't give a damn. They need to pay for that? Jesus said to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us. And judgment is for God only. About 911, google "Project Ghost Gun". I'll send you a link. Then you can research it for yoursef.

  • @Cutie9326 It seems like I should have explain differently -What I should have said is why dont the government should use this on each other as they are Satan worshipers and they are very evil-I have nothing to do with them. Look up Waco-Rules of Engagement !

    The cia-fbi-atf-army-killed people on church grounds and they need to pay for what they did! they also did 911 and much more -like chemtrails. You should have checked my page before the comment !

  • @firstwave2 Wake up and do research. Your own government is behind this. YEAH, I DON'T CARE IF YOU SPOOKS ARE SPYING ON ME! IN THE END, GOD WILL KICK YOUR SORRY BUTTS!

  • maybe they can use it on the real problem- the true makers of 911'
