Harmful books are forbidden for reading in planes



It seems like the control, established over the passengers in the USA, has not been enough - now special services carefully study, what books their tourists are read during the flight. The data on travelers are being stored for 15 years, and arriving to America expose estimations which define safety and reliability degree.
Just after the act of terrorism on September, 11th, 2003, the American special services have taken under control over all passengers and citizens.
In particular, Americans collect the diversified data about all tourists - at which company this or that person and where he/she has stopped, etc. But it wasn’t enough - the control of what traveling citizens read in road is being entered now.
The monitoring system for passengers has been put into operation in the middle of 90th. Since 2002, it has been automated. By the way, special automated program (Automated Targeting System), which secretly gives to passengers arriving to the USA the certain index defining a degree of their possible participation in terrorists, has been put into operation.
According to newspaper Christian Science Monitor, now the White House pushes disputable bill “Protect America Act” - to the document, created on the wave of struggle against terrorism. According to it, special services can have an opportunity to listen to telephone conversations without the public prosecutor’s sanction.
The law can already come in force since February, 1st, 2008. Legal experts resolutely object it. Addressing to the US Congress, US National Safety Agency has declared, that public debate about prolongation of the law cost many human lives as it makes measures under the control and supervision transparent for all enemies of the nation.
