I can’t wait to hear what Bruce Schneier has to say about the FBI’s new “system to assess risk.” (A German report here, which quotes Schneier as saying something like, “These programs are based on the dangerous myth that terrorists fit a particular profile, and we can pick them out of a crowd if we only put all people into it.” ) It would be great to see an internationally-prominent body adopting the principle that you can’t out-anticipate terrorists, but you can uphold an open, respectful, resilient civil order.
