Ah Geeze...now I need help again...remember when they were going to create an office

[LaydeeBug]

for data mining? They even had a symbol for it...an all seeing eye.

This was back in the Bush years and I'd google it if I could remember what they called it.

Does anyone remember?

1. Total Information Awareness Office

And this was their proposed official symbol, believe it or not:


The DARPA Total Information Awareness logo clearly represents some kind of hierarchical overseeing global power. After much controversy the project was rebranded as Terrorist Information Awareness.

I find it ironic that you sought it fit to waste time and bandwidth. Google's bandwidth notwithstanding
