Jacobsen's book on the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Is fascinating and frightening. The only reason I haven't gone completely conspiracy theory mad over the whole situation is that I can't imagine who would care what I've done 24/7 for the last half decade. There's facial recognition software, too, used in large crowds, also developed under DARPA auspices, and that technology became urgent after 9/11. I've had an iPhone with a GPS (global positioning system) since 2010, and GPS is DARPA originated technology.
