Sherri Davidoff writes "Here's a real copy of an American citizen's DHS Travel Record, retrieved from the US Customs and Border Patrol's Automated Targeting System and obtained through a FOIA/Privacy Act request. The document reveals that the DHS is storing: the traveler's credit card number and expiration; IP addresses used to make Web travel reservations; hotel information and itinerary; full airline itinerary including flight numbers and seat numbers; phone numbers including business, home, and cell; and every frequent flyer and hotel number associated with the traveler, even ones not used for the specific reservation."

    Yes... Because so many Third World Countries are known for being safe, secure places to live. Seriously, what about your comments made sense you to? Entering a "3rd world country was easy compared to the US" - no shit. Half the time those countries don't give a rat's ass about who's coming or going and their security is practically non-existent.
