Quiet Skies

Boston Globe: Welcome to the quiet skies:

Federal air marshals have begun following ordinary US citizens not suspected of a crime or on any terrorist watch list and collecting extensive information about their movements and behavior under a new domestic surveillance program that is drawing criticism from within the agency.

Oddly, I'd thought that programs like this were running 15 years ago, though not at the "they deploy a squad of air marshalls on the next flight" level. Seems like this is probably not a great use of resources.
