Neither of which are in use with the US gov't! If you fools haven't figured it out, the US gov't is not a futuristic entity with all gadgets 10 years before they come out. Leading up to and shortly after 9/11 you couldn't search for multi word strings on FBI computers, and you think they have nano bots? HAH!
