... the FBI's Next Generation Identification system, and the agency said it became fully operational Monday. The government expects the system's database to house 51 million photographs by next year -- and keep growing.

But it's not just for the FBI. Police everywhere will be able to tap into the system. They'll quickly ID fingerprints during a routine traffic stop -- or look up a face while investigating a crime.

Hawaii, Maryland and Michigan took part in the NGI system's pilot program, documents show. A dozen others including California, Florida and New York have discussed participation in the program as well, according to the Electronic Frontier Foundation.

There's no secret. Just know what you're talking about before you open your mouth.

a) It's not what you do, it's what you get caught doing.

b) I don't have anything to hide, who cares if [they] are listening to my conversations and finding my face in a crowd.

c) America, goodbye and we'll miss you dearly old lady!
