The project’s aim would have been, “to gather in a single place just about everything an individual says, sees or does”. On Februthe agency shut down its so called “LifeLog Project”. As such, much pressure was applied to scrap it.
Now that it is beyond a shadow of a doubt that DARPA created LifeLog, it is also the case that its core components, total surveillance and privacy intrusions, became burdensome liabilities for the powers that be. Dempsey is concerned that such a tool could impact privacy …. The Center for Government and Technology’s James X. LifeLog volunteers would be equipped with cameras, sensors, and microphones to record everything they feel, everything they do, and everywhere they go the research is not classified, which means that LifeLog software could eventually be made available to private companies.Īccording to the Pentagon documents, the LifeLog software would not just file geophysical and vital readings, but also emails, instant messages, phone calls, voice mails, snail mail, faxes, and Web-based transactions, as well as links to every radio and TV broadcast the subject hears and every publication, Web site, or database he or she sees. Pentagon documents state that the goal of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) LifeLog project is to develop software that deduces behavioral patterns from monitoring people’s daily activities, and DARPA officials say the initiative could be used to improve military training as well as the memory of military commanders. Facebook, however, seems to mirror LifeLog to the nth degree! We will get to that.
That being established, it is neither accidental nor incidental that DARPA created LifeLog a highly specific research and development project which preceded Facebook. to maintain its vitally important super-power status in the free world, it is critical for the Pentagon to support a qualitatively superior research and development operational arm a mandatory, non-negotiable departmental mission.
On its face, the above definition and descriptor is all well and good. DARPA comprises approximately 220 government employees in six technical offices, including nearly 100 program managers, who together oversee about 250 research and development programs. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency ( DARPA) is a research and development agency of the United States Department of Defense responsible for the development of emerging technologies for use by the military.ĭARPA is independent of other military research and development, and reports directly to senior Department of Defense management. In turn, an evidentiary case will be built demonstrating the whys and wherefores of Facebook’s limitless power: ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS | By Adina Kutnicki | August 3, 2021īefore the connections between Facebook and the Pentagon are exposed in plain view, one must have a basic understanding and working definition of DARPA.
