Re: Is Big Brother Watching this Site


FYI, yeah the government does watch websites (especially public forums) and reads a lot of the content. I've seen it first hand where a guy got a visit from some gov't types in response to some things he had posted. From what I have heard they also have web crawling software that looks for keywords in site content so that they don't have to spend all day reading about some teenager's math teacher that hates him. What gets a reaction has to be pretty far out (usually an actual threat or specific action), and remember -you are on a public space unless the site requires a login and password type arrangement to get in, so what you write is fair game. A good lawyer might be able to fight that if push comes to shove, but who needs that?
