Homeland Insecurity Advisory System project

Today, in conjunction with the US Department of Art & Technology, Jonah Brucker-Cohen has launched the Homeland Insecurity Advisory System project.

The HIAS is a public rating system that allows people to determine the US Government’s Threat Level by collectively rating RSS feeds from major US news sources.

HIAS system wants to let people collaboratively challenge the internally determined (and seemingly arbitrary) threat condition by rating each major US news source according to its support level for or against the US Government’s actions.
