It's unclear exactly why, but the Department of Homeland has been operating
a "Social Networking/Media Capability" program to monitor the top blogs,
forums and social networks online for at least the past 18 months. Based on
a privacy compliance review from last November recently obtained by Reuters,
the purpose of the project is to "collect information used in providing
situational awareness and establishing a common operating picture." Whatever
that means. Either way, the list of sites reported by Reuters reveals in a
Wednesday afternoon exclusive is pretty intriguing:
Social Networks
* Facebook
* Twitter
* Myspace
Blogs
* The Drudge Report
* The Huffington Post
* The New York Times's Lede blog
* Wired's Threat Level
* Wired's Danger Room
* ABC News' investigative blog The Blotter
* "blogs that cover bird flu … news and activity along U.S. borders …
drug trafficking and cybercrime"
Multimedia
* Hulu
* YouTube
* Flickr
In conclusion, the Department of Homeland Security is just like you. We've
seen no reports of The Atlantic Wire being on the list. But if we are, hello
Department of Homeland Security employees -- thanks for reading! |
