Default Government Increasingly Turning to Data Mining


"The Pentagon pays a private company to compile data on teenagers it can
recruit to the military. The Homeland Security Department buys consumer
information to help screen people at borders and detect immigration fraud.

As federal agencies delve into the vast commercial market for consumer
information, such as buying habits and financial records, they are tapping
into data that would be difficult for the government to accumulate but that
has become a booming business for private companies."
