From EPIC.org:
EPIC has filed comments with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) in response to a Federal Register notice and aproposed rulemaking to establish fourteen new databases. The DNI is seeking to exempt portions of these systems from key protections in the Privacy Act of 1974. EPIC said that this proposal undermines the Privacy Act, and urged the agency not to implement the exemptions. For more information, see EPIC: The Privacy Act of 1974.
