Source Code for CIAs Tool to Track Whistleblowers Leaked by Wikileaks - tcsh - Apr 29, 2017
Code
Wikileaks has just published a new batch of the Vault 7 leak, exposing the documentation and source code for a CIA project known as "Scribbles."
Scribbles, a.k.a. the "Snowden Stopper," is a piece of software allegedly designed to embed 'web beacon' tags into confidential documents, allowing the spying agency to track whistleblowers and foreign spies.
Since March, as part of its "Vault 7" series, the Whistleblowing website has published thousands of documents and other confidential information that the whistleblower group claims came from the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
The CIA itself described Scribbles as a "batch processing tool for pre-generating watermarks and inserting those watermarks into documents that are apparently being stolen by FIO (foreign intelligence officers) actors."Download: here, straight from wikileaks

This would be great to compile and sell as a business solution. Considering every company in the world would like this. Downside is most "FIO" will actually store and audit these documents with offline systems in a controlled environment. Well, most will anyway.

Yup. Always lots of business potential with these types of leaks, if only as an idea path :)
