  2. Privacy Concerns • Data mining is inconsistent with the Fourth Amendment • Data mining is a threat to civil liberties

  3. Data Quality • The government collects data from sources without verifying its authenticity • Data warehouses contain missing or incomplete records, multiple fields enteredin one field, and incompatible programming languages • Data doesn't include information on multiple transmissions (from multiple sources) so they could be mistaken as multiple events and create a false pattern

  4. Terrorist Profiling/Algorithms • There is currently no completely accurate way to profile a terrorist • There is not enough data about terrorists to put together a good profile • It is possible that the algorithms and processes of data mining can be avoided by terrorists

  5. Mission Creep • Mission Creep: When data is used for purposes that are different than the one for which the data was originally collected • Mission creep can be a consequence of the desire to use all data, even when unnecessary • Used in this way, data can produce unintended or misleading results
