FBI Gives Up On Accuracy
From Yahoo News: "The Justice Department lifted a requirement Monday that the FBI ensure the accuracy and timeliness of information about criminals and crime victims before adding it to the country's most comprehensive law enforcement database."
Well, that's just great. Hypothetically, some asshat gives his name as "Johnny Two-Cents" to the Effa Bee Eye, and suddenly I'm a criminal. Way to go, DoJ. Would you like a crack at those pesky habeas corpus laws next? Oh, wait...
[update: from the world's tiniest violin department] I should point out that, according to the story, the accuracy rule has been lifted due to FBI claims that they can no longer manage the massive flow of information they now have coming in. Oh, forgive me if I'm not overly sympathetic.
