Surveillance creep

On Dec 16, we learned that the NSA has been collecting phone records on Americans for drug enforcement.

On Dec. 20, we learned that Homeland Security is pushing ahead with its plans to turn its satellite surveillance onto the US.

Today, we learn that the FBI is intent on building "the world's largest computer database of peoples' physical characteristics."

It's a brave new world.....

    Will we be able to reign in this Eye of Mordor with a new administration? Is there a segment of America that see his as good news?
