The program doesn’t work in that manner

As a programmer, I can see where many innocent people will be "tricked" into going to these sites. DNS hijacking and a host of redirection methods can easily bring innocents under the thumb of zealous prosecutors. This approach by the FBI should offend anyone who cherishes Liberty. It is astounding how many people believe the government is fill with people with good intentions. Our Founders rightfully warned us of the evils of government. Government is a necessary evil.

this idea by the FBI is as stupid as the SC ruling that CO2 is a pollutant. Our Liberty is constantly under assault by government busy bodies.

Yeah, pretty cool, eh? As programmers, with spoofing tactics and javascripts, we can arbitrarily send "innocent" people to prison with the click of a mouse.

Well FW88, I notice you conveniently jumped right over this assertion from someone who knows how to trap people. What say you?
