When fused with big-data       analysis techniques, this network can be used to watch everything       simultaneously, and perhaps even predict attacks before they happen.              "In battle, Gorgon Stare and other systems like it have saved countless lives,       but when this technology is deployed over American cities—as it already has       been, extensively and largely in secret—it has the potential to become the most       nightmarishly powerful visual surveillance system ever built. While it may well       solve serious crimes and even help ease the traffic along your morning commute,       it could also enable far more sinister and dangerous intrusions into our lives.       This is closed-circuit television on steroids. Facebook in the heavens.               "Drawing on extensive access within the Pentagon and in the companies and       government labs that developed these devices, Eyes in the Sky reveals how a       top-secret team of mad scientists brought Gorgon Stare into existence, how it       has come to pose an unprecedented threat to our privacy and freedom, and how we       might still capitalize on its great promise while avoiding its many perils.               Eyes in the Sky: The Secret Rise of Gorgon Stare and How It Will Watch Us All       | Hardcover              Arthur Holland Michel       HMH Books | Mariner Books              Technology & Engineering / Military Science / Political Science / Intelligence       & Espionage / Law Enforcement              Published Jun 18, 2019              You can read a few introductory pages here:              https://www.bookmanager.com/tbm/?q=h.tviewer&using_sb=status&qsb=keyword&qse=oO       69hqA8LeAavZr2lrXmVw              https://tinyurl.com/49xccx58 Just click on the "More Images"       --- SBBSecho 3.14-Linux        * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757.2)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 14/0 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 129/305 134/100 153/105       SEEN-BY: 153/135 757 802 154/10 218/840 221/6 226/30 227/114 702 229/424       SEEN-BY: 229/426 428 452 550 664 700 1017 240/5832 249/206 317 400       SEEN-BY: 282/1038 292/854 301/1 317/3 322/757 342/200 633/280 770/1       SEEN-BY: 3634/12       PATH: 153/757 221/6 229/664 426           |
