This book describes the Total Information Awareness (TIA) programs
in the Defense Research Projects Agency (DARPA) of the Department
of Defense, and related information access, collection, and
protection laws. TIA is a new technology under development that
plans to use data mining technologies to sift through personal
transactions in electronic data to find patterns and associations
connected to terrorist threats and activities. Data mining
technologies are currently used by federal agencies for various
purposes. DARPA has underway a five year research project to
develop and integrate information technologies into a prototype
system or systems to identify foreign terrorists for use by the
intelligence, counterintelligence, law enforcement, and homeland
security communities. Recent increased awareness about the
existence of the TIA project provoked expressions of concern about
the potential for the invasion of privacy of law-abiding citizens
by the Government, and about the direction of the project by John
Poindexter, a central figure in the Iran-Contra affair. While the
law enforcement and intelligence communities argue that more
sophisticated information gathering techniques are essential to
combat today's sophisticated terrorists, civil libertarians worry
that the Government's increased capability to assemble information
will result in increased and unchecked government power, and the
erosion of individual privacy.
