Hcberkowitz (talk · contribs) 18:45, 19 October 2007 (UTC). See current SIGINT and MASINT main pages and related subpages. Interested in creating an article that pulls together the "overarching" concept of intelligence, going beyond Intelligence cycle and bringing in additional management and information technologies, considering CCIRM, etc.[reply]

Wnt (talk · contribs) - this project is presently marked as inactive, yet there's considerable interest in WP:Surveillance awareness day. I'm exploring whether this project can be revived to focus in part on issues of mass surveillance and its impact on personal privacy and freedom of speech.^[1] Wnt (talk) 05:36, 21 January 2014 (UTC) It looks like most of the people from recent conversations have opted in favor of the new and definitely active WP:WikiProject Mass Surveillance, and since my interest is also in that direction, it makes more sense for me to go that way.
