T. I. A. is NOT Original
5 March 2014
After one episode I probably won't bother watching more, watching all these people acting with all their might makes me tired.

However, one thing really puzzles me: the idea that the concept or even the exact NAME is original. As a matter of historical fact the US was developing an actual comprehensive DB on all citizens in the 1990s literally called "T.I.A.", except the "A" stood for "Access" instead of "Awareness", if memory serves.

The actual program was abandoned as being "too intrusive" but there is a lot of information that the program was simply adjusted and renamed.

It's weird to watch a show that presents something that existed 20 years ago as fanciful or futuristic. TIA was old even BEFORE Snowden.
