Most surveillance systems have functional IQs below 100, merely the median for average human IQ. Only two or three companies can operate in the space above 110, the company claims. iOmniscient has genius-level products, however.

So in addition to Gold, does Fox News also own stock in iOmniscient?

I wonder if iOmniscient can build a GUI interface in Visual Basic to trace an IP?

Well I am always super comforted to know that behind dozens of hidden, unblinking glass eyes there lurks a superhuman intelligence. That shit makes me want to go shopping right now.
Also, this is one of those stories that the company pays the news organization to post directly, yeah?

By using their logic, if I were to buy a 7-string electric guitar, my guitar would have an IQ of 128!

Given the relative IQs, they should have got the surveillance system to write about Fox news journalists press release processors.*
