USA aims for total awareness
Article Abstract:
The US government is planning to introduce Total Information Awareness (TIA), a system to create risk profiles for millions of US citizens, based on a wide range of personal information and their patterns of behavior, in order to counter terrorist threats. The Pentagon hopes the system will revolutionize its ability to detect and identify terrorists, decipher their plans and allow pre-emptive action to defeat possible attacks.
