AFP's take on the Army intel report about terrorist use of cell phones, GPS, and yes, Twitter. AFP cites Wired, which slightly misrepresented the contents of the Army report, playing up the Twitter aspect when most of the report was actually about cell phones and GPS. Twitter plays even more prominently in the AFP version.

  • Besides Twitter, the report examined the potential use by militants of Global Positioning Systems and other technologies.

      Ya, this should be the other way around..."Besides cell phones and GPS, the report examined Twitter." So, which is it AFP? Did you not read the report or are you purposefuly misrepresenting?
