The Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) seeks documents about the “Analytical Framework for Intelligence” which incorporates personal information from government agencies, commercial data brokers, and the Internet. The agency then uses secret, analytic tools to assign “risk assessments” to travelers, including U.S. citizens traveling solely within the United States.
In other words stakeholders and DHS are profiting from these analytical programs.
“The Automated Targeting System (ATS) compares traveler, cargo, and conveyance information against law enforcement, intelligence, and other enforcement data using risk-based targeting scenarios and assessments.”What do they mean by “other enforcement data”? Could it be your pizza delivery phone calls or yourTweets?
Just last week I reported that police are giving American addresses color coded threat ratings!
Police are using more than TWENTY EIGHT automated “risk assessment” programs on EVERYONE travelling inside the US!
ATS “risk assessment” programs:
ATS accesses and uses additional databases including, but not limited to:
“CBP Border Patrol Enforcement Tracking System (BPETS), Department of State Consular Consolidated Database (CCD), commercial data aggregators, CBP’s Enterprise Geospatial Information Services (eGIS), DHS Automated Biometric Identification System (IDENT), WebIDENT, Nlets (not an acronym), DOJ’s National Crime Information Center (NCIC), the results of queries in the FBI’s Interstate Identification Index (III), and the National Insurance Crime Bureau’s (NICB’s) private database of stolen vehicles.”
See Appendix D (pages 39, 40) to find out more.
FYI, EVERYONE is also being given a bioterror risk assessment, click here to find out more! That brings the total to 29 known risk assessments!
Law enforcement keeps records of everyone travelling in America and calls it ‘ Passenger Name Record ‘ (PNR).
PNR provides advanced information about cargo and related persons and entities for risk assessment and targeting purposes; for results of Cargo Enforcement Exams; for the combination of license plate, Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) registration data and biographical dataassociated with a border crossing; for certain law enforcement and/or intelligence data, reports, and projects developed by CBP analysts that may include public source information.
DHS/Police just admitted they’re using your driver’s license, license plate, biographical data and any public source (social media) information to give everyone a risk assessment!
American’s can request a copy of their PNR but won’t be told what information law enforcement has on them according to Section 7.1:
Click here to see how you can request your PNR.
What they’re really saying is, we’ll tell you what your ‘risk assessment’ figure is and that’s it!
Law enforcement claims the Privacy Act of 1974 allows then to keep all the other information a secret:
Our government is using an officer’s experience and at least 29 automated programs to determine whether you’re SUSPICOUS and will be placed on a PNR list? What could possibly go wrong?
In 2010 a B.S. review of “DHS’s Approach to Security Analysis” was conducted by people with close ties to DHS. Unsurprisingly they found DHS’s “risk assessment” program to be a useful tool, however what they really thought about it is kept confidential, to protect the integrity of the deliberative process!
Does that sound like an objective “risk assessment” review to you?
A cursory web search reveals many if not all of the “committee members” have close ties to DHS.
– A woman VP at BAE systems which has close ties to DHS, click here, here & here to find out more.
– A man from Ramboll Environ which has close ties to DHS, click here, here & here to find out more.

– The owner of Countermeasures Assessment & Security Experts who was AMTRAK’s chief of police. Click here, here & here to see how AMTRAK is part of DHS. AMTRAK requires ANYONEtravelling in the U.S. to provide a picture ID!
The American police state is giving individuals and your home risk assessments! Is this the America you want?

The next time you hear someone say “if you’re not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about”, hold their head underwater until the bubbles stop.
“Police are using more than TWENTY EIGHT automated “risk assessment” programs on EVERYONE travelling inside the US!”
The only ‘risk assessment’ not done was their own.
Immaterial I suppose, since it would come up fatal for them, once people stop cowering and start shooting.
Soon they will have everyone properly or improperly categorized according to their multi-agency screening. So be careful people. They may elevate your risk assessment if they catch you jaywalking on camera! Automated license plate readers, facial recognition technology, and laws designed to make most everyone a criminal, one can only strive to stay under their radar.
The commies who run the country want to make America more like the Soviet Union, where slaves had to get permission to leave their town, even to travel to another town to visit relatives or go to a wedding.
Resist and you get arrested, fined, possibly imprisoned or shot on the spot. As on the Bundy Ranch, the only effective way to resist is to use the threat of deadly force.
“In order to facilitate legitimate trade and travel while managing the risk of people or cargo entering or exiting the United States who may pose a threat, DHS CBP has designed and continues to operate the ATS.”
Translation: Protect the drug cartels and their trade shipments entering and being transported in the country. Arrest and target those people who try to stop them.
