a: Database searches ~
b: anthropological artifact

What: "This information represents, in aggregate form, a place holder for the intentions of humankind - a massive database of desires, needs, wants, and likes that can be discovered, supoenaed, archived, tracked, and exploited to all sorts of ends." This kind of exploration has been done before, but the amount of information currently available is much higher.
