THE RIGHT TECHNOLOGY FOR SOCIAL MEDIA SURVEILLANCE – PART 2
BY LARRY GOLDFARB
Regulators seem to have a real zeal for surveillance of social media – at least not seen since the early days of e-mail archiving. And they may be on to something.

As always, I can be reached at larrygoldfarb@verizon.net).
