Users who use words like `attack`, `bomb`, `blast` or `kill` in tweets, status updates, emails or blogs may bring you under surveillance of security agencies as the government will soon launch `Netra`, an internet spy system capable of detecting malafide messages.
The Home Ministry is putting the finishing touches to ‘Netra’, which will be deployed by all security agencies to capture any dubious voice traffic passing through software like Skype or Google Talk, besides write-ups in tweets, status updates, emails, instant messaging transcripts, internet calls, blogs and forums.
The ‘Netra’ internet spy system has been developed by Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (CAIR), a lab under Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO).
