The Internet needed another source of rants and uninvited uninformed opinions.
Apparently some folks at MIT decided that the Bush Administration and the Pentagon had a great idea when they thought up the (now apparently canceled) plan for "Total Information Awareness". Except instead of tracking every day citizens these individuals plan on tracking the government itself.
The product? Government Information Awareness. An organized effort to track the actions of elected officials and other components of government and study their relationships with special interest groups, corporations and other entities. A great idea idea that is long overdue. And a great irony... The same technology that allows the government to track its citizens being used to track the government. I wish the project well... We definitely need it.
