What Does DHS Know About You?
Philosecurity.org has posted a real copy of an American citizen’s DHS Travel Record retrieved from the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol’s Automated Targeting System (ATS). This was obtained through a FOIA/Privacy Act request and sent in by an anonymous reader. The document reveals that the DHS is storing the reader’s:
- Full credit card number and expiration
- IP address used to make web travel reservations
- Hotel information and itinerary
- Full Name, birth date and passport number
- Full airline itinerary, including flight numbers and seat numbers
- Cruise ship itinerary
