  • Wyden is intent on putting an end to the Admiral John Poindexter’s infamous Total Information Awareness Program (TIA), which works hand-in-hand with DARPA…”to integrate technologies developed by DARPA (and elsewhere as appropriate) into a series of increasingly powerful prototype systems that can be stress-tested in operationally relevant environments, using real-time feedback to refine concepts of operation and performance requirements down to the component level.”
