- astrodust 11y agoTerrorists are by and large muppets, they operate on inadequate budgets, they plan badly, they execute inconsistently. The only reason they succeed is becomes on infrequent occasions law enforcement is even more incompetent. The 9/11 attacks had many, many red flag warnings before they went down that were largely ignored. What's so unusual about people training to fly planes, but not take off or land, right? The same patterns will be found here in hindsight. Deep, pervasive surveillance will only flood already saturated information channels. What they need is less information of a higher quality, not more noise in the system.
