EFF And FLAG Take On FBI

The Electronic Frontier Foundation(EFF) has taken the FBI to court over a information database kept by the FBI. According to EFF,

The FBI has failed to file a public notice describing the database and the criteria for including personal information, as required by the Privacy Act of 1974.

This is part of a new program called FLAG, that will try to expose the government's attempt to use technology to invade and erode Americans privacy.
