* Not everyone thought this was a good idea. The American Bankers'

* used only by the FDIC in deposit insurance coverage functions."

* Even though the FDIC argued against it, FinCEN then proposed in

* System" (DTS) that would also track deposits to, or withdrawals

# Al Bayse, Assistant Director of the FBI, said the FBI has developed an
# artificial intelligence system, called Big Floyd, that can analyze
# thousands of disparate financial transactions and establish links
# between seemingly unconnected suspects.
#
# The same artificial intelligence methodology will be used to establish
# links in terrorism, white-collar crime, intelligence breaches, and
violent
# crimes with common clues or techniques.
Cybernetic control of society.
Everything on-line and monitored in real-time.
