Military Creating an Army of Fake People on the Internet

From Revolutionary Politics


Software will allow 10 personas per user, replete with background , history, supporting details, and cyber presences that are technically, culturally and geographacilly consistent. Individual applications will enable an operator to exercise a number of different online persons from the same workstation and without fear of being discovered by sophisticated adversaries. Personas must be able to appear to originate in nearly any part of the world and can interact through conventional online services and social media platforms.

The request was for 50 licenses, which means the Air Force hoped to create up to 500 fake Internet people. The request was filled in June, which means these fake people could be roaming the 'net right now...

Are the Cyber Battles with the Enemies of WikiLeaks the New Civil Disobedience?

From Alternet.


Are distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks a legitimate and effective form of protest?

December 13, 2010 |


The WikiLeaks controversy has opened up one of the most complicated intersections of politics and the Internet that we’ve seen in a while. One particularly interesting development has been the launch of attacks against companies and politicians perceived to be foes of WikiLeaks, by a loose group of online activists called Anonymous.

At the Personal Democracy Forum’s symposium on Wikileaks over the weekend, organizer and blogger Noel Hidalgo put forth an idea that divided the room pretty quickly: that the distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks are a legitimate form of civil disobedience...

Lieberman: Shut Down The Net Like China; Iceland: Freedom of Communication!


Iceland is passing resolutions to protect freedom of expression on the Internet. Obama and Lieberman would like to have a "kill switch."

It's not hard to see who is on the right side of this one. One more reason to leave the land of the morons. I've heard the flights to Iceland are cheap. Tempting.

The online freedom law passed in Iceland as you can read here. The vote was 50 in favor and zero against. Can you imagine how that vote would go down in our corrupt country?

Eventually every smart person will just leave the U.S. and only the brain dead will remain to eat burgers and watch football, kill civilians in wars or sit in prison.

Run, Run, The Dangerous Conspiracy Theorists Are Coming.


Well, of course, if you have something to hide, then the last person you want around is someone investigating it. Investigating the truth in the face of blatant lies from the mainstream news and governmental propaganda machine is what the 'conspiracy theorists' in many cases actually do. So what do you do if you are part of the establishment which doesn't want its secrets out? You start a smear campaign full of propaganda and patsies, something like what is going on right now, and scare people with articles like this one on Fox News about "Terrorists Targeting Children." The article goes on to describe how "the Internet often acts as the incubator and validator of dangerous conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 and organ theft."

Dangerous conspiracies indeed! If people are stealing organs, or if elements within your own government conspire to aid terrorists or at the very least to cover-up the truth about 9/11, that is very dangerous indeed. It is even more dangerous if you know nothing about it and blindly eat up every fabricated morsel of propaganda dished out to you.

Maybe you have been following the fantastic stories of the new 'blond Al-Qaeda.' Apparently the newest development in the War on Terror is the use of blond women by the normally darker skinned male Islamofascists in their endeavors. They have names like Jihad Jane, and Jihad Jamie. What will they think of next? Maybe a wave of trained Al-Qaeda puppies?

Anyway, in one glorious hodge-podge of an article on the ABC News website, the writers manage to combine a story on Jihad Jamie and the blond Al-Qaeda wave with a reference to the role of the internet in providing forums for those with a "grudge against the government."

Expect more of this mixing of 'conspiracy theorists' with terrorists, blond Al-Qaeda, Nazis or flying dragons for that matter. The internet with its conspiracy theorists, investigators and generally unrestricted communication is a threat to the agendas of the establishment, and they don't tolerate threats. They frame them.

In another article we learn about Jihad Jamie's son, Christian. As it turns out Jamie renamed her son "Wahid." Wow, that must really play well in the Mid-West. Can you imagine?

His name was Christian! And they renamed him Wahid!

I can't wait for the Al-Qaeda puppy wave. Spot will be renamed Saeed.
