Slashdot Mirror
Thirty-Three States Contributed to the MATRIX
lexbaby writes "The Salt Lake Tribune has an article claiming that at least 33 states have released government and commercial records on residents to the controversial MATRIX (Multistate Anti-Terrorism Information Exchange) network instead of the originally claimed 13." Don't worry, there's plenty of RAM for all 50 and the territories too.
I was wondering why all the stories aimed at getting the tinfoil hat crowd in a frenzy where popping up, then I noticed Michael was at the helm
I can't believe they actually had the balls to call it that.
Always wear your foil hat underneath a real hat, otherwise they'll know you know.
Mod this post up. McCarthy would be spooging himself if he were alive today.
and the movie still sucked at the end?
People hate terrorists. Let's make a list.
People hate child molestors. Let's make a list.
People hate corrupt politicians. Shhhhhh.

Wouldn't that be MATIE?
No, because then they would be confused with the pirate non dairy creamer COFFEE MATIE.
Maybe once you're in Canada, the thought of killing yourself for a cause seems less attractive,
I suspect it's the universal healthcare, and very tasty bread.
What were you expecting?
I think this site needs badly to be slashdotted or DoS'd.
It needs to be "Google Bombed" too. We should all start providing links to it with the phrase "The MATRIX has you" everywhere we can.
Yes, I really said this and when the feds come to ask me about it I'll tell th... wait a minute, there's someone at the door.
My office has been taken over by iPod people.
Freemason Grand Master: ...and we will call it Multistate Anti-Terrorism Information Exchange!
Illuminatus Rex: Hm.. Mu.. Ant.. Te... Matie? MATIE? Didn't we decide to keep the Aussie division out this time?
Freemason Grand Master: No, no, they are not in. Purely a coincidence.
Paul W.: Well, it sounds a bit... dull.
Illuminatus Rex: I agree. MATIE just will not work. Think of USA PATRIOT - Uniting and Strengthening - now that is a classic. Even TIA is better, even thought it is just a TLA. How are we going to keep people on their toes with MATIE? People should think of strength and cunning, not Foster's and dingos. We are not playing shadow government here!
Alan G.: What if we change a few letters... uhm.. MATRIX?
Illuminatus Rex: Eeexcellent.
I shall go and tell the indestructible man that someone plans to murder him.
