- baltcode 15y agowhy the downvote? I thought some people might be concerned about clicking on a cryptome link and I thought this was a safer-looking link.
- mkr-hn 15y agoIt looks like this is a modified form of this: http://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/privacy/privacy_pia_ops_publiclyavailablesocialmedia.pdf http://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/privacy/privacy_pia_ops_p... (from http://www.dhs.gov/files/publications/gc_1281732303362.shtm http://www.dhs.gov/files/publications/gc_1281732303362.shtm) My best guess is that the submitted PDF is an update to the original, so the author didn't see the need to have all that text. I couldn't find it on the DHS website though.
- rd108 15y agoFascinating. Thank you for the link. Excerpt: 3.1 What information is retained? The NOC will retain only user-generated information posted to publicly available online social media sites. Information posted in the public sphere that the Department uses to provide situational awareness or establish a common operating picture becomes a federal record and the Department is required to maintain a copy. However, the Department is working with the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) on a retention schedule to immediately delete PII, upon the approval of this schedule by NARA, as well as to maintain records necessary for further use by the Department.
- wensing 15y agoStormpulse feelin' the love. (We made the list).
- jaylevitt 15y agoToday I learned that Homeland Security thinks it's important to stay current on MySpace Videos, but not Bruce Schneier.
- silentOpen 15y agoThis isn't a list of everything they monitor. Just because Schneier isn't on this list does not mean that he isn't monitored.
- niels_olson 15y agoWhat I find really funny is that most military networks seem to block Schneier's website but allow access to the Hannity show.
- hippich 15y agoPlease, add commenting and voting features so we could vote for top 30 sites HS should watch :))
- latchkey 15y agoOh, I was certain that Kink.com (NSFW) was going to be on there. Back when I worked there, it was always fun to look at how many .gov email addresses had accounts on their system. I guess they didn't mean that kind of monitoring. ;-)
- itmag 15y agoWhat was it like working for a pr0n site? Do a mini-AMA plz :)
- beambot 15y agoPopular Science? Seems out of place. I'd love to hear the rationale behind that one.
- dhughes 15y agoIt's popular.
- tristan_louis 15y ago.. and scienec-y (sorry, couldn't help :) )
- mkr-hn 15y agoThe other PDFs on DHS' page tell me this is for disaster monitoring, and Popular Science has informative post-disaster articles. https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=japan+tsunami+site%3Awww.popsci.com https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=japan+tsunami+site...
- area51mafia 15y agoWhy Hulu? It's not like it accepts user generated content besides comments.
- cstuder 15y agoWouldn't you want to watch Hulu on your job? (Provided that you're bored on your job...)
- anons2011 15y agoNo *chan sites on the list?
- chris123 15y agoI guess the NSA is monitoring a lot more than what's on this little list :) Between the Patriot Act, SOPA, and NDAA we are another step closer to Dystopia. Ironic that, in his inaugural address, President Obama called on us to “reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals.”
- brmj 15y agoWell, in all fairness the claim that we can't have either would also be consistent with his statement, sort of.
