  1. On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

  8. Oh shit, I was way off. I mixed these guys up with another company in my
  9. head. Kerley is right about it's analytical functions. The main public
  10. platform they are selling can crunch a lot of data and is used to identify
  11. and track fraudulent activity. These guys also came up for working with
  12. HBGary in trying to monitor wikileaks.

  14. I think Palantir is up to some shadier stuff to. Including funding
  15. facebook........ (palantir's CEO is even depicted in the movie)

  24. Yes, I think they do deep packet inspection stuff. To oversimplify, this
  25. means the ability to look through internet traffic very carefully.
  26. Similar to the stuff the Syrians were recently reported to be using.

  28. Great for monitoring people who think they are anonymous, and, wait for
  29. it.......attribution!
