Talk about total information awareness …

Reports AP: The Pentagon is developing an urban surveillance system that would use computers and thousands of cameras to track, record and analyze the movement of every vehicle in a foreign city.

It’s being touted as “Combat Zones That See,” a really neat-O way to keep track of bad people in dangerous foreign cities and protect U.S. troops doing duty in said cities. John Pike from GlobalSecurity hits the nail on the head with this quote:

“Once DARPA demonstrates that it can be done,” Pike said, “a number of companies would likely develop their own version in hope of getting contracts from local police, nuclear plant security, shopping centers, even people looking for deadbeat dads.”

In the long-ago words of Nu Shooz … “I-I-I can’t wait!”
