#1 There is and will always be a method for communicating around government sanctioned ways.

And also (especially for the NSA cock splashes watching this) fuck you tyrants.

#2 A few years back, the White House had a brilliant idea: Why not create a single, secure online ID that Americans could use to verify their identity across multiple websites

Actually the idea of a flat-network and single log-on originated back in the 1990's at the US Army Intelligence and Security Command [INSCOM], Fort Belvoir, VA. Former NSA director General Keith Alexander and his able sidekick, Dr. Jim Heath were the architects. It was called JIOC at the time. Unfortunately, their concept was quickly hijacked by the Army's amazingly unsuccessful and costly Distributed Common Ground System [DCGS] program.

#3 Ref #2 above, upon reflection, my date of late 1990's is a bit off. Alexander didn't arrive at INSCOM until a bit later. Apologies.

#10 Credit where due, the Russers are damn good at music, chess and bizarre math. But watch out the black bread and lard.

#12 Huge privacy issue first of all. But the glaring hypocrisy that they would impose an ID requirement on the Internet and continue to omit an ID requirement for voting is just stunning.

#18 Re:#11. 93 per cent of the media are liberals. And they want to regulate the 7% that are conservative. Should be the other way around in a massive way. But they will not be happy until there is no right. Marxists.

#19 Why now? Because the libs have the mass media controlled, but not the internet. Liberty and conservatism are doing quite well online.
