right now going through screening is like everyone going through a net, or filter.
focusing more on domestic intelligence i would think ties in with the privacy issue.
i agree with the sentiment towards bulking up their capabilities, but it seems like some of the points brought up conflict in that regard.
same with border/customs. that means someone asking you questions, or putting you under scrutiny.
i take it from the previous thread that not many would be for any of these. i may be wrong though.
