New government entity to take control over military and civilian networks

This is pretty scary stuff. The Federal government is ready to seize control of private company networks in order to "protect" us in the event of a hacker attack.

The govt. keeps taking more and more of our liberties, and we aren't doing anything to stop it.

My congressman & Senator are worthless.

Reichert (rino) voted FOR cap & tax. He just wants to get along, doncha know.

Murray is a lost cause. Totally liberal and dumber than dirt.

Sure, I can call or write to complain as I've done before, but I'll be ignored just as I was before.

Our “elected” representatives don't give a flying bleep what WE want or don't want. They won the election they ran for, so we are just annoyances to them now.

Yes, the list was originally uploaded that way, but into a dispersed system so that it would be almost impossible to find or kill.

See 2.4 GHz 100 mW to 3 W Amps or 3W to 25W amps

A 25W wireless router? The fact that I get a -90dB signal in the back bedroom won't matter at all anymore!

Ah, OK. I’m actually rereading EFAD at the moment, but haven’t had time to pick it up in a couple weeks. If I’d had the time to get farther, I would have known that! ;-)

Probably more. If they've never posted, and maybe never intended to, a lot of them may not even have accounts, and we couldn't even count those.

It looks too long to be legitimate. Like someone is trying to oversell the idea.

Did you SNOPES it?

No. I don’t think enough of Snopes to bother.

Might be worthwhile, however.

Please let me know, if you do.

My google search has plenty of links to others who are repeating the story. I’d bet money it’s just another story to enthuse folks.

That's stories written to 'use' folks, like in:

AB-use

CONF-use

AM-use

etc.

Plausible.

However, there is this pesky little matter of . . .

it fits OThuga’s style, M.O. preferences and inclinations

P’haps. . . tho I doubt if obammy really had the guts to promulgate such a stupid memo in view of the general discontent among the populace. Wouldn’t take a helluva lot to tip the scales.
