U.S. Still Lacks Consolidated Terror Watch List

Federal Computer Week reports that the FBI’s Terrorist Screening Center has yet to create a single, unified database comprising the dozen terror watch lists created by various government agencies, missing the December 1, 2003 deadline to complete the task.

See also Terror Watch List Buried in Bureaucratic Mess, which states that according to Rep. Jim Turner, a member of the Select Committee on Homeland Security, that “…without a comprehensive list of terror suspects, a whole raft of other anti-terror initiatives – – like the border screening program called U.S.-VISIT and the passenger threat rating system known as CAPPS II – would be greatly limited in their effectiveness.”

BeSpacific: “No one better has her finger on the pulse of the legal information world than Sabrina Pacifici, law librarian and author of the blog BeSpacific,” writes blogger Robert Ambrogi. “Launched in 2002, BeSpacific is one of the longest-running legal blogs and, remarkably, Sabrina seems more prolific today than ever. She posts multiple items every day, covering the gamut of law, technology and knowledge discovery and topics ranging from cybersecurity to legal research to government regulation to civil liberties to IP and more. For me, BeSpacific is one of my daily must-reads and has been for 14 years straight.”
