“... they can get your IP and log you in their system”.
Thank you, Lucky9teen, for posting that comment. I was thinking the same thing but wondered if I had not become so suspicious and jaded that a tinfoil hat wasn’t right for me. The whole story just seems too weird for me with so many questions left unanswered. I think I will take my chances.
BTW, I "checked" my PC and it is (apparently) fine. I did not use the FBI link. Too creepy.
Agree that it seems like a test run to take over the entire internet for "national security" reasons.
