What Is Perfect Citizen?

By , About.com Guide   July 12, 2010

Follow me on:

The U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) will apparently monitor computer networks hooked to critical systems such as those that control the nation's power and transportation grids. Most details of this project remain unknown to the general public, understandably. It's called Perfect Citizen - a name that suggests more than just searching for international terrorists is going on. Until some facts are available, though, I suggest there's nothing here to be alarmed over. Hopefully.
