Your privacy at risk

It's a perfect afternoon to transplant in the garden so I won't be posting much until later but I ran across this item last night on the Total Information Awareness program in MATRIX clothing that deserves some attention. There are 120,000 people on just this one list. The Florida company that created it, Seisint, said in government documents, obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union, that the "High Terrorism Factor" list had led to scores of arrests.

Congress refused to fund this program because of privacy concerns, however, the Department of Homeland Security gave these guys 8 million of your tax dollars to spy on you anyway. If you live in Florida, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Michigan and Ohio, you are part of the 20% of US citizens currently subject to this MATRIX database.

It's not a stretch to see this administration using this data to pursue political dissenters as well as terrorists. Protect yourself -- Click here to learn more.
