ACLU has obtained agreement between Homeland Security and
Center for Disease Control to share airline passenger info. (Sorry if this has already been posted, I can't get to DU as often as I wish). Article at www.aclu.org/privacy/spying as well as a link to the Memorandum of Understanding.

1. More from above link. Your private info is no longer private!
WASHINGTON – The text of a secret agreement that the Department of Homeland Security executed with the Centers for Disease Control to share airline passenger data confirms what the American Civil Liberties Union had feared, which is that the U.S. government is distributing information that it explicitly promised it would not share. This is very troubling for several reasons.

This is another shredding of our civil liberties. Recommend, sadly.

Thanks, beingthere.

3. God bless the ACLU - people who actually CARE about the Constitution
As a card carrying member I may be prejudiced BUT I think anyone who can afford to should donate to the ACLU. They are fighting for us every day.
