Trapwire, a spy system uncovered by RT last year while analyzing hacked emails obtained from the Stratfor private intelligence firm, has been sold to major US cities, allowing customers to scan the faces of people caught on surveillance cameras in only seconds. The Electronic Privacy Information Center describes TrapWire as “a technology solution predicated upon behavior patterns in red zones to identify surveillance. It helps you connect the dots over time and distance.”
Intelligence
contractor Abraxas developed TrapWire to,
every few seconds, collect data at
surveillance points in major cities and
landmarks across the United States. The data
is recorded digitally on the spot, then
encrypted and instantaneously delivered to a
fortified central database center at an
undisclosed location to be aggregated with
other intelligence.
