U.S. rates travelers for terror risk

By MICHAEL J. SNIFFEN, Associated Press

WASHINGTON - Without their knowledge, millions of Americans and foreigners crossing U.S. borders in the past four years have been assigned scores generated by U.S. government computers rating the risk that the travelers are terrorists or criminals.


The travelers are not allowed to see or directly challenge these risk assessments, which the government intends to keep on file for 40 years.

The government calls the system critical to national security following the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Some privacy advocates call it one of the most intrusive and risky schemes yet mounted in the name of anti-terrorism efforts.

Virtually every person entering and leaving the United States by air, sea or land is scored by the
Homeland Security Department's Automated Targeting System, or ATS. The scores are based on ATS' analysis of their travel records and other data, including items such as where they are from, how they paid for tickets, their motor vehicle records, past one-way travel, seating preference and what kind of meal they ordered.

Did you actually read the article?

"...analysis of their travel records and other data, including items such as where they are from, how they paid for tickets, their motor vehicle records, past one-way travel, seating preference and what kind of meal they ordered."


If they are looking what the people do and what they don't, what they like and what they don't like isn't that invading a person's personal business? That will include the views if they are Pro American or Ant-American hence if you are Anti-American you are straight up a "terrorist" or a "terrorist sympathizer" equal to a "terrorist."



Freedom of speech is de nieuwe god van het westen geworden, we zien deze artikel dat de vrijheid en het rechten van een mens wordt aangetast, bijv als iemand zowel moslim als niet moslim nu zijn mening is dat Hezbollah geen terror organisatie is of als je Irak oorlog een misdaad vind etc wordt dat niet als mening gezien, waar is de vrijheid van meningsuiting dan dat voor iedereen moet gelden? vanaf nu is vrijheids van meninguiting is als iemand zegt wat amerikanen leuk vinden, zo niet dat is geen vrijheids van meninguiting maar je bent een "terrorist sympathizer" equal to a "terrorist."
government intends to keep on file for 40 years, voor 40jr zal een mening van mens die als crimineel act wordt bestempel bewaard blijven in een dossier waar jan en allemaal kan zien, zelfs toekomstige werkgever.

Nogmaals : wat heeft je bovenstaande onderwerp te maken met Freedom of speech :
Het onderwerp behandelt namelijk het feit dat mensen rechten en prive rechten worden aangetaast & gechonden !

[Somatic]

Again, mensen hun vrijheids van meningsuiten worden ook beperkt, dus niet alleen dat mensen recht en prive rechten worden aangetast, As Homeland security secretary says...... its all or nothing.. voila. tjuzz
