Not too much investigative work in my opinion. This Guardian article
reads like a press release for Raytheon, announcing their new product.

My guess is this video is a demo made for the DARPA BAA. And what did you
expect? People put their lives online and share everything, of course
someone is going to record and collate it all. And these same people
will get the bright idea to predict the future with suspect data.
