CIA/DoD/DHS Connections 

There has been some talk and speculation about the connectiosn of GNN with US government organizations, I just want to add, as someone who is VERY familiar with such programs, that there is a great deal of validity to this. The GNN was (possibly still is) a monitoring point for the US government. If you are not aware of what DARPA means i suggest you look it up. The government was, and does, keep a running list of ISPs that visit GNN via the Information Awarness Office (now called the Terrorism Information Awarness Program); The NSA wiretaping and so forth was part of that program. the lists of watched individuals is divided between DoD and NSA (more specifically department of intelligence) sources so that no one group can claim jurisdictionwhen DoD wants a list they say it is part of national intell, when intell comes they say it is DoD eyes only. Basically, there is a well maintained database of who visits and if you do anything else bad, well they have  a compelling case against you in the DARPA/DHS files. Use software that hides your IP if you must. You can put this in the article if you want. This post is true, although i cannot link you to a 'source' so to say, you will have to take my word for it. Pleas believe me, i do know what i am talking about.
