(NaturalNews) They say there are billions of them, with more than 50 million added per day. But whatever the actual number, every single tweet ever sent since the beginning of Twitter-time is set to be turned over to Uncle Sam. According to Federal News Radio earlier this week, Twitter has struck a deal (deal?) with the Library of Congress to archive every single tweet. Rather than treat them as free, protected speech, the billions of Tweets are being treated as historical documents and will archived as such, the report said. "We have an agreement with Twitter where they have a bunch of servers with their historic archive of tweets, everything that was sent out and declared to be public," Bill Lefurgy, the digital initiatives program manager at the library's national digital information infrastructure and preservation program, said on Federal News Radio. "We were excited to be involved with acquiring the Twitter archives because it's a unique record of our time," he added. "It's also a unique way of communication. It's not so much that people are going to be interested in what you or I had for lunch, which some people like to say on Twitter." Which begs the question: What, then, is the government "interested" in? According to the report, the tweets will be made available to researchers who "could then data-mine for interesting information." "There have been studies involved with what are the moods of the public at various times of the day in reaction to certain kinds of news events," said Lefurgy. "There's all these interesting kinds of mixing and matching that can be done using the tweets as a big set of data." The agreement, it turns out, has been in the works since last year. Reportedly, no Tweets that users have "protected" will be included in the data dump, but let's ask the obvious question here: How many of us actually believe that private tweets aren't somehow going to show up in this LOC tweet repository - for some researcher to "data-mine?" So, the lesson here is this: If you think your tweets are just going to vanish into the unknown after you send them, think again. And be careful what you tweet; some "researcher" may just "data-mine" it some day, to your dismay. In the electronic age, privacy is increasingly becoming a quaint concept of the past.

Prevela i uredila: Barbara Arbanas Kovačević Matrix World Kažu da ih je milijarda, a svakim se danom dodaje više od 50 milijuna. Bez obzira na njihov točan broj, baš svaki od ‘tweetova’ se još od početaka rada Twittera usmjerava Ujaku Samu. Prema Radiju Državnih Novosti (Federal News Radio), nešto ranije ovog tjedna, Twitter je postigao dogovor (dogovor?) s Kongresnom knjižnicom o arhiviranju baš svakog ‘tweeta’. Milijuni ‘tweetova’ su tretitani kao povijesni dokumenti i kao takvi se arhiviraju, stoji u izvješću, umjesto da se tretiraju kao slobodan, zaštićen govor. „Imamo dogovor s Twitterom koji ima hrpu servera sa svojom povijesnom arhivom ‘tweetova’. Sve što je odaslano pretpostavljeno je kao javna stvar.“ Rekao je Bill Lefurgy, upravitelj digitalnog inicijativnog programa u nacionalnoj knjižničkoj digitalnoj informacijskoj infrastrukturi i programu za očuvanje na Radiju Državnih Novosti. „Bili smo uzbuđeni što smo uključeni u dobivanje Twitterove arhive zato što je to jedinstveni zapis našega doba,“ dodao je „To je također i unikatan način komunikacije. Ne radi se o tome da će ljudi biti zainteresirani za ono što ste vi ili ja imali za ručak jer to je nešto o čemu ljudi vole govoriti na Twitteru.“ Ovo iziskuje jedno pitanje: što to onda ‘zanima’ vladu? Prema izvještaju, ‘tweetovi’ će biti dostupni istraživačima koji bi mogli rudariti po podacima u potrazi za zanimljivim informacijama. „Postoje studije o tome kakvo je raspoloženje javnosti u različito doba dana kao reakcija na određena nova događanja,“ rekao je Lefurgy. „Postoji toliko načina miješanja i sparivanja koja se mogu izvršiti koristeći ‘tweetove’ kao veliki izvor podataka.“ Čini se da je sporazum u upotrebi od prošle godine. ‘Tweetovi’ koje su korisnici zaštitili, prema izvještaju, neće biti uključeni u izvatku podataka, ali zapitajmo ovdje jedno očito pitanje: Koliko nas zaista vjeruje da se privatni ‘tweetovi’ neće nekako pojaviti u ovom skladištu ‘tweetova’ Kongresne knjižnice kako bi ih tamo neki istraživači mogli pretraživati? Dakle, naučena lekcija glasi: Ako mislite da će vaši ‘tweetovi’ nestati u nepoznato nakon što ih pošaljete, onda razmislite ponovo. I budite pažljivi što ‘tweetate’: neki „istraživači“ bi to jednog dana mogli pretraživati uz vaše neslaganje. U ovo elektroničko doba, privatnost sve više postaje neobičan koncept prošlosti.
