WP:WikiProject Mass surveillance

More work needs to be done on Consent search, Terry stop, and a page needs to be created for Pretextual stop, which redirects currently. In addition, Traffic stop should outline all the ways the government is using traffic enforcement to fight the war on drugs and terrorism. People who are interested should start posting suggestions on the talk pages in those respective topics. Thanks.

:::Feel free to expand this list!

Timely items may be candidates for WP:ITN - in any case, deserve coverage.
