A smartphone app capable of identifying neo-Nazi music by listening to a short sample has been developed by German police, who hope it will help crack down on racist organisations.
The software has been written by the regional police in Saxony and has been described in government documents as able to "spare resources and enable very quick investigations".
It can pick out the common audio fingerprints of neo-Nazi rock music and could identify racist songs even if they have never before been heard by police or analysed by the software.
The interior ministers of Germany’s 16 states will meet to discuss using what has become known as the “Nazi Shazam” later this week, reports Spiegel, referring to the popular smartphone app which can identify the name and artist of a song from a short snippet.
Police could use the software to routinely monitor internet radio stations, small gatherings of suspects and public events with live music.
