Interesting article on the CIA's use of Social Computing sites and YouTube to gather intelligence.
In keeping with its mandate to gather intelligence, the CIA is watching YouTube.
U.S. spies, now under the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), are looking increasingly online for intelligence; they have become major consumers of social media.
While I doubt they have employees whose exclusive function is watching Youtube, and I suspect some of it is automated, probably an interesting job, which I would expect requires some language skills as well.
Apparently at least the CIA thinks there is intelligence out there :)
