Dr. Doom knows all about you
And he is getting more and more information about you every day. Do not think for one minute that you can continue to be a threat to Our Dear Embattled Leader without the good Dr. knowing it.
The U.S. government is collecting electronic records on the travel habits of millions of Americans who fly, drive or take cruises abroad, retaining data on the persons with whom they travel or plan to stay, the personal items they carry during their journeys, and even the books that travelers have carried, according to documents obtained by a group of civil liberties advocates and statements by government officials.But you have nothing to worry about except that not all the information is accurate. So you may still be taken away for a mistake.
The personal travel records are meant to be stored for as long as 15 years, as part of the Department of Homeland Security's effort to assess the security threat posed by all travelers entering the country. Officials say the records, which are analyzed by the department's Automated Targeting System, help border officials distinguish potential terrorists from innocent people entering the country.
"You are mine, all mine!"
