	Information Awareness Office - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Information Awareness Office ("IAO") was established by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency ("DARPA"), the research and development agency of the United States Department of Defense, in January 2002 to bring together several DARPA projects focused on applying information technology to counter transnational threats to national security.
		The IAO mission was to "imagine, develop, apply, integrate, demonstrate and transition information technologies, components and prototype, closed-loop, information systems that will counter asymmetric threats by achieving total information awareness".
		The IAO was established by DARPA after the events of 9/11 to bring several related DARPA projects together under the leadership of one technical office director in order to focus the development of advanced information technology to counter terrorist threats.

		The Information Awareness Office was a project of the United States Department of Defense's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency focused on developing mass surveillance and related technologies to counter transnational threats to national security.
		The integrity of Poindexter as head of the IAO also came under scrutiny, given his conviction on five felony charges for lying to Congress and deliberately altering and destroying documents pertaining to the Iran-Contra Affair, although those convictions were later overturned.
		The IAO's Illuminati-esque logo features the all-seeing eye of God from the Great Seal of the United States replaced with the all-seeing eye of the Information Awareness Office gazing at the Earth, and the Latin motto "scientia est potentia," meaning "knowledge is power".

		Information on these specific RandD efforts may not be available until DARPA submits the specifics of its budget in April 2003.

		The US Information Awareness Office's goal is to turn all personal records in cyberspace —tax, travel, shopping, credit card, medical, security video tapes, and all the email that's ever been sent—into a huge database that electronic robots will mine for patterns suggestive of terrorist activity.
		The avowed goal of Total Information Awareness is to survail "financial, education, travel, medical, veterinary, country entry, transportation, housing, government, critical resources and communications".
		The Information Awareness Office is working on some really cool stuff that will eventually turn up at Brookstone and the Sharper Image, like a Palm Pilot-size PDA that does instantaneous English-Arabic and English-Chinese translations.

		Some consider the John Poindexter Awareness Office just desserts, that government officials and contractors like Poindexter should be prepared to accept the consequences of their unpopular actions.

		Recently, it was exposed that the Denver police had developed dossiers on 3,200 individuals and 208 organizations that they believed needed to be monitored, including a 74-year-old nun who supported the Zapatistas and an 82-year-old great-grandmother whose only apparent crime was attending a rally with a Free Leonard Peltier bumper sticker on her car.
