Data Mining Americans for Terror Risk

AP: Data Mining Americans for Terror Risk

The article discusses a system for gathering public information on people to determine if they are a terrorist threat.

Is this big brother or a significant tool in dealing with the war on terror?

IMO I agree with the ACLU on this one. It seems that information could be carelessly vgenerated and people could be immediately labeled as enemy combatants. And we all know what sort of rights you get once you get that title.
