Wild Bill Donovan would have loved the Internet.The spymaster who built the Office of Strategic senrice in wodd war II and later laid the roots for the CIA(美国中央情报局)was very interested in information.D0novan believed in using whatever tools came to hand in the“great name”of discovering information--spying as a“profession”(职业).These days the Net,which has already re。made such everyday pastimes as buying books and sending mail,is reshaping Donovan’s job as well.
The latest re’volution isn’t simply a matter of gentlemen reading other gentlemen’s e—mail.rrhat kind of electronic spying has been going on for decades.In the past three or four years,the World Wide Web has given birth to a whole industry of point—and—click spying.The spies call it“open souree intelligence”(情报),and as the Net grows,it is becoming increasingly to affect people’s lives. In 1995 the CIA held a contest to see who could collect the most facts about Burundi.The winner was a tiny Virginia company called open source solutions,whose clear advantage was its mastery of the electronic world.
Among the firms making the biggest splash in this new world is Straitford,Inc•,a private intelligence-analysis(情报分析)firm based in Austin,Texas.Straitford makes money by selling the results of spying(covering nations from Chile to Russia)to corporations like energy。services firm McDermott Intemational.People may find its forecasts online at WWW.straitford.com.
Straitford president George Friedman says he sees the online world as a kind of tool for both collecting and giving out information,a spymaster’s dream.Last week his firm was busy searching for information from the far comers of the world and saying there would be a crisis(危机)in Ukraine.“As soon as that report 1"1113S,we’ll suddenly get 500 new Internet sign—ups from Ukraine,”says Friedman,a former political science professor.“And we’11 hear back from some of them.”Open—source spying does have its risks,of course,since it can be difficult to tell good information from bad.That’s where Straitford earns its keep.
Friedman relies on only 20 people in Austin.Several of his staff members have military-intelligence(军事情报)backgrounds.He sees the firm’s outsider position as the key to its success.Straitford’s briefs don’t sound like the usual Washington back-and-forth by which people avoid dramarie declarations Off the chance they might be wrong.Straifford,says Friedman,takes pride in’its in dependent voice.
The Internet has( ).
选项
A、received support from fans like Donovan
