NSA Refuses To Release Secret Obama Directive On Cybersecurity

    This comes of no surprise, as was pointed out some time back that Obama wants control of the internet.

    No doubt his team is now working overtime to develop some kind of a false flag virus or cyber attack in order to justify and usher these new measures in promptly.

    We must also remember when Obama gets control of Google he will become that "all knowing God of this planet", having so much information on everyone and everything on the face of this planet right at his fingertips. Its also by no coincidence that this particular logo was chosen for him. :)

    "The National Security Agency has refused to release details of a secret presidential directive which experts believe could allow the military and intelligence agencies to operate on the networks of private companies, such as Google and Facebook.

    As we reported last week, an article in the Washington Post, cited several US officials saying that Obama signed off on the secret cybersecurity order, believed to widely expand NSA’s spying authorities, in mid-October.

    “The new directive is the most extensive White House effort to date to wrestle with what constitutes an “offensive” and a “defensive” action in the rapidly evolving world of cyberwar and cyberterrorism.” the report states.

    In response to the move, lawyers with the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request (PDF) demanding that the Obama administration make public the text of the directive".

    In order to battle cyber crime governments have to be pro-active in their approach i think ... Is it open to "abuse of rights" I think it is, that's the dilemma I'm having.

    What do you think should be the appropriate answer to the growing threats of cyber crime ? ... Not only done by individuals but other country's as well (China)

    Good point W - some countries actually do control the internet, but we don't hear about how evil they are...I'm tempted to suggest that, as I've said before, US conspiracy theories are the 'fast food' of the CT world. Easily available and easily digested. Turn off your brain and dive right in.

    RTDH, do you think that Obama will suffer his forthcoming serious head injury in this false-flag cyber attack? ;)
