TIA2: The MATRIX
From a message on PolitechBot (which seems to have been sent only to the list, not to the web page):

Subject: The MATRIX: TIA Reloaded
Declan,
Politech readers may be interested in an "issue brief" we've just released on "MATRIX, -- Total Information Awareness Reloaded." The Matirx is the state level data-mining program being funded by the Federal Government, which bears a striking similarity to the now defunct TIA. We've also filed "Freedom of Information Act" requests with five states and the Federal Government seeking the details about the program.
