Slow down. While it may be appropriate for the government to make use of public information, caution is warranted. Based on what we know, there are constitutional, technological, and security concerns with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Total Information Awareness project. Please join us to hear Cato experts discuss the implications of TIA for constitutionally limited government, the possible impact of TIA on the information economy and electronic commerce, and the likely effectiveness of TIA in enhancing national security.
