FBI to Start Monitor Facebook, Twitter and Social Media Activities


The Federal Bureau of Investigation from U.S.A a.k.a. F.B.I. needs your help to develop and transform a Tool or Program which helps them to monitor and track Social Media and Social Networking websites like Facebook and Twitter. But why FBI needs to monitor Social Media? Because they want to stop the maximum numbers of online crimes and activities which are increasing rapidly. Everyday people like to share everything through social media websites like Facebook and Twitter which allow people to commit a online crime. 




According to the recent report from The Guardian because of people's online sharing activity, the FBI is working on a programing tool which will allow FBI to monitor and track websites like Facebook and Twitter more effectively in order to help fight crime. The programing tool on which FBI working and hoping to build doesn’t sound very threatening. It includes requests and activities for automated searches of not only social media but also legitimate news websites like BBCCNN and Fox News, automated alerting when certain conditions are met, and mapping capability that includes not only terrorist information but also weather, embassy, traffic, and the like.

So if you want to know more about F.B.I's Tracking and Monitoring Tool and wants to help FBI in transforming and building programing tool than you can read all the requirements of the requested system at 12 page Request for Information (RFI).
