I propose that we close the CIA and outsource our intelligence agency to the Internet. Hear me out. I've seen the Advent of Internet sleuthing. How much better would it be if our devs created an open source platform of distributed networks to collect open source information with a goal of making killing, thieving, monopoly, war, and injustice visible to not just a shadowy agency, but all global citizens. Such a system would rely on individual citizens, their cameras, their communities, to eliminate impunity and establish norms of transparency and accountability. I know, this is just a Wendy's drive through, but seriously.
It would need more organization and unhackability than just "the Internet" or "social media". It would have to be a fusion of global satellite resources, information resources, social media, AI analysis, and search/reporting tools. But make it good enough and no nation or agency could ever get away with anything if all eyes of the world are looking.
The killer feature is distributed data plus sophisticated open source code that makes it usable in any language on any platform. What say y'all?
We will never get rid of the CIA until there's a replacement. But it is a very expensive, inefficient monster, just like war. I say it's time to end both.
