People are waking up and doing alot of research on their own. You really have to keep a eye on these guys with the facebook hearings I dove into a bit and thought you would find this of interest..

Pentagon kills Lifelog Project 02/04/04

Run by Darpa, the Defense Department's research arm, Lifelog aimed to gather in a single place just about everything an individual says, sees or does: the phone calls made, the TV shows watched, the magazines read, the plane tickets bought, the email sent and recieved. Out of this seemingly endless ocean of information, computer scientists would plot distinctive routes in the data, mapping relationships, memeories, events and experiences.

The DARPA program was canceled in 2004 after criticism from civil libertarians concerning the privacy implications of the system. The same year Facebook was started.

Hmmmm sound familier..

Look up DARPA LifeLog timing of them taking it down in 2004 and Facebook being founded in 2004...
