The FBI announced plans to implement software that will scan Twitter, Facebook, and other social network feeds. (BBC: FBI plans social network map alert mash-up application)
They've been doing this stuff for a while so it's not clear why they're announcing it now. It does amuse me that there's nothing on CNN about it. I discovered this one reading the BBC.
Just as many were accused of pedophilia for sending naked pictures of their own babies to CVS or similar, the FBI will have the same power regarding anything you say in a social network. This in combination with NDAA creates the potential for a police state that Hitler would have traded Eva Braun and all his dogs to get.
I'm not angry and I can't say I even care. At this stage in life, if people want to screw up the country, let 'em. I'll take pictures (laughs). However, it's yet another reason to stay the hell off any social networks.

Betty White said all that needs to be said on that subject!
I wouldn't expect to see her tweeting! She's way, way too cool for that.
