   Remember when the same creepy spies proposed 'Total Information Awareness' back in 2003 but the Internet got really angry and so they stopped and never did anything like that again? And then they also didn't outsource it to good ol American capitalism, and the Internet didn't cheer them right along. And so this didn't happen. I remember that.
