The following is what he said in his interview[1] with Scott Pelley on 60 Minutes in September 2008:&lt;p&gt;Woodward: &lt;i&gt;This is very sensitive and very top secret, but there are secret operational capabilities that have been developed by the military to locate, target, and kill leaders [in Iraq].&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pelley: &lt;i&gt;What is this? Some kind of surveillance, some kind of targeted way of taking out just the ... leadership?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;Woodward: &lt;i&gt;It is the stuff of which military novels are written.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;Pelley: &lt;i&gt;Do you mean to say that this special capability is such an advance in military technique and technology that it reminds you of the advent of the tank and the airplane?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;Woodward: &lt;i&gt;Yeah.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bits of info from Woodward, the timeline of the development of military aerial camera systems (such as Angel Fire), the claimed capability to locate people -- it all fits. This is the revolutionary advance in military capability they are talking about.&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.cbsnews.com&amp;#x2F;stories&amp;#x2F;2008&amp;#x2F;09&amp;#x2F;04&amp;#x2F;60minutes&amp;#x2F;main4415771.shtml&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.cbsnews.com&amp;#x2F;stories&amp;#x2F;2008&amp;#x2F;09&amp;#x2F;04&amp;#x2F;60minutes&amp;#x2F;main4415...&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>

You could follow CEO&amp;#x27;s,government officials etc and detail everything they do and who they meet with. Nothing stopping that company from using the images they have stored to compile information on whoever they want in the area. Great technology thats super easy to abuse to devastating effect in a myriad of ways. No one really cares about that though .</text></comment>
