Thanks for the ping!
The speech to schools and Pledge video have rightfully received a lot of attention today.
This issue, personal data harvesting from networking sites is a huge issue that shouldn’t be ignored. Anyone have an update on this?

You know, my biggest concern is this administration legalizing the illegals before 2010 in order to neutralize the conservative vote.
Any bills to legalize illegals flying under the radar?
I wonder if they will have access to backend access to data or have to troll the same interface as us peons?
BTTT....
The solicitation says "The contractor shall provide the necessary services to capture, store, extract to approved formats, and transfer content published by EOP (aka the white house) on publicly-accessible web sites, along with information posted by non-EOP persons on publicly-accessible web sites where the EOP offices under PRA maintains a presence, throughout the term of the contract.
Read it for yourself https://www.fbo.gov/spg/EOP/OP/WashingtonDC/WHO-S-09-0003/listing.html Which by the way is a RFQ, Request for Quote. Typically those are ones slated for a specific company. Maybe I'll bid on this so I can remove data from 'friends' on FR. Payup guys this is the new world order.
5. Performance Objectives
(A) The scope is to capture, store, extract to approved formats, and transfer to NARA all content posted by EOP components subject to the PRA on publicly-accessible websites during each calendar year.
(B) Capture and store content of any kind, including text, graphic, audio, and video, in any existing file format.
(C) Demonstrate an ability to adapt to and archive new file formats that are created after the initiation of this contract.
(D) Capture and store content regardless of whether it is uploaded from the EOP network to the site or created directly on the site.
(E) Capture all created content at regular intervals daily, ensuring the retention of any deltas introduced between captures per day(it is preferable, but not necessary, for vendor to capture content that was added to a site and subsequently removed in the interval between captures). Vendor must capture content at least twice a day, and preferably would have a process to initiate a re-crawling of the content on demand.
(F) Capture (and later display) content in context, as it appeared on a given web page.
(G) Capture of comments and publicly-visible tags posted by users on publicly-accessible websites on which an EOP component subject to the PRA maintains a presence. Vendor must be able to either:
(i) Capture all comments posted to a list of websites provided to vendor; or
(ii) Capture a sample of comments posted to a list of websites provided to vendor, according to a sampling methodology that will be provided to vendor and approved by EOP.
(H) Provide the ability to search and/or organize collections by website, keyword, date and/or filter by file type.
(I) Store and transfer data in a manner that preserves both the record content, associated with comments, and related objects, as they were created and with the relationships they exhibited on the web page at the time of capture creation.
(J) Ability for government employees to tag captures from publicly-accessible websites by arbitrary fields or tags such as office or issue (i.e. OVP or health care).
(K) Provide a web-based tool for government employees to administer and manage this record-keeping. (i.e. add new publicly-accessible websites to the crawl or adjust the crawl frequency). Provide a minimum of 10 simultaneous login accounts.
(L) Extract the data at capture and store in formats approved by NARA prior to the transfer of data to NARA, preferably at the time of capture. Formats must allow NARA to ingest the records into their Electronic Record Achieve, with preference given to open-source or common industry formats independent of proprietary software or hardware to maintain and access.
(M) Develop process to transfer extracted data in NARA approved formats at set intervals (at least quarterly) and at the end of the contract.
(N) Provide sufficient disaster recovery backup.
(O) Provide process verification which confirms all required data was collected, stored, extracted to NARA format, and transferred to NARA successfully.
(P) Provide either web-based or on-site training for government employees who access and/or administer the proposed solution.
(Q) Provide sufficient user guides and online help documentation.
(R) Provide a maximum of 24 hour turnaround for questions and/or support by either email or telephone during business working hours.
Amen Candor7....Amen!
Remember how they had a hissy fit over Bush’s National Security effort to track terrorists, how they said it was spying on American citizens? Just another example of when they complain about something it is a sure fire signal that they intend to do even worse.
Amen! I have been saying that for years but the Communists and their hand maidens in the media have so vilified any who use the term so as to silence them. I have said this to Rush and to Hannity via email. These folks are Communists, pure and simple.
