Track Twitter 'mass mood' & help police to 'track potential criminal behaviour or threats to public safety'? Hmmm... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-24001692 …
@Peter_Kirkham Now, now Peter. Putting words in my mouth & calling me names for it at the same time is hardly cricket. I made no such claim.

@Peter_Kirkham My concern is around how it might also be used in future, not just today. 'Mission creep' rarely ends well... -
@C7RKY But if its in the public domain it makes no difference - ANYONE can do whatever they like with it! -
@Peter_Kirkham Yes, anyone can, but not everyone can then arrest people, based upon results. It's a short step to include the 'inconvenient' -

@Peter_Kirkham I beg your pardon? Paranoid? I'm making a perfectly rational point about its potential uses, which you're failing to grasp. -
@C7RKY No mate. You're utterly misrepresenting what it is & what it could ever be used for. -
@Peter_Kirkham Last I looked, you weren't a computer expert Peter. I respect your expertise, but be fair, this isn't it. We both have views. -
@C7RKY Its nothing to do with being a computer expert. Nothing at all. You are seeing things which are simply not there. - 1 more reply
