"Obama creates post to oversee cyber security; Cites growing attacks on US networks" by Lolita C. Baldor, Associated Press | May 30, 2009
WASHINGTON - A new White House office of cyber security, and that person will report to the National Security Council and the National Economic Council - a nod to Obama's contention that the country's economic prosperity depends on cyber security.
As the blogs have pointed out, this is nothing more than an attempt to crush free speech under the guise of "security."
And we will SEE WHOSE PROSPERITY they are refering to in just a moment!
"It's now clear this cyber threat is one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation," Obama said, adding, "We're not as prepared as we should be, as a government or as a country."
Obama's announcement came as the Pentagon is poised to create a new cyber command to improve protection of military networks and coordinate its offensive and defensive cyber missions.
OFFENSIVE MISSIONS, huh?

Government officials have grown increasingly alarmed as US computer networks are repeatedly assailed by attacks and scams, ranging from nuisance hacking to more nefarious probes and attacks, including suspicions of cyber espionage by other nations, such as China....
Except WE KNOW WHOM THAT is, and it is not China!
And if we need this for "defense" why the OFFENSIVE CAPABILITY?
To SHUT DOWN BLOGS, isn't it?
Laying out a broad five-point plan, the president said the United States must provide the education required to keep pace with technology and attract and retain a cyber-savvy work force. He called for a new education campaign to raise public awareness of the challenges and threats related to cyber security.
The newly interconnected world offers great promise, but it also presents significant peril, the president said, declaring: "Cyberspace is real, and so are the risks that comes with it."
Wow, VISIBLE was RIGHT:
"The truth is, we are winning the information war and they are looking like the lying sacks of shit that they are. They thought they had the situation sewn up. They never imagined that the internet would launch millions of dissident voices that would expose them ‘on the ground’; uncover the inconsistencies in their make believe reports, open the eyes of their hamster clientele, make news out of what they ignore and generally do everything they were supposed to do and didn’t have the honor or the integrity to attempt to do."
He assured the business community, however, that the government will not dictate how private industry should tighten digital defenses. He made it clear that the new cyber security effort will not involve any monitoring of private networks or individual e-mail accounts. The Internet, he said, should remain open and free.
First of all, you see who is importnat to him, right? Not you and me.
As for the monitoring, the GOVERNMENT ALREADY DOES that, so why should we believe him about the "open and free" part -- especially when they are pushing their thought crime laws?
Overall, computer company executives and members of Congress hailed Obama's announcement as a good first step, while warning that there is much hard work still to be done.
You will see why in the next article.
"Because the private sector owns and operates the vast majority of our nation's critical infrastructure, government and business have a shared responsibility to defend our networks," said Ann Beauchesne, vice president of national security at the US Chamber of Commerce....
It's called COLLABORATION or -- gasp -- CONSPIRACY!

"US rallies hackers to defend networks; In recession, firms can recruit top computer talent" by Christopher Drew and John Markoff, New York Times | May 31, 2009
Great, another "benefit" of the "recession."
And WHY AREN'T these "hackers" being ARRESTED, huh?
On the GOVERNMENT PAYROLL?!!!!!
Oh, and the REAL REASON for "cyber-security": $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
MELBOURNE, Fla. - The government's urgent push into cyberwarfare has set off a rush among the biggest military companies for billions of dollars in new defense contracts.
Oh, NOW it is CYBERWARFARE!!!!!!!!!
The exotic nature of the work, coupled with the deep recession, is enabling the companies to attract top young talent that once would have gone to Silicon Valley. Nearly all of the largest military firms - including Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, and
These guys got PHAT for 50 YEARS on the Commie bogeyman, and now.... ??
The companies have been moving quickly to lock up the relatively small number of specialists with the training and creativity to block the attacks and design countermeasures. They have been buying smaller firms, financing academic research, and running advertisements for "cyberninjas" as other industries are shedding workers.
It TRULY is becoming a SIG HEIL SOCIETY! ALL WAR, ALL the TIME!!!!!
The changes are manifesting themselves in highly classified laboratories, where computer geeks in their 20s like to joke that they are hackers with security clearances.
Yeah, real funny, ha, ha.
At a Raytheon facility here south of the Kennedy Space Center, a hub of innovation in an earlier era, rock music blares and empty cans of Mountain Dew pile up as engineers develop tools to protect the Pentagon's computers and crack into the networks of countries that could become adversaries. Prizes like cappuccino machines and stacks of cash spur them on, and a gong sounds for each major breakthrough.
And you wonder why we are despised, hated, and mistrusted in this world, 'murkn?!!
We TALK OUT of BOTH SIDES of our mouth and LIE out of BOTH SIDES and OTHER PEOPLE KNOW IT!
The only ones who don't are my s***-chomping fellow citizens!
The young engineers represent the new face of a war that President Obama described Friday as "one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation."
Computer specialists say the government is behind the curve in sealing off its networks from threats that are growing more persistent and sophisticated, with thousands of intrusions each day by organized criminals and legions of hackers for nations including Russia and China.
And WE KNOW WHOM IT IS and WHOM the JEWISH MEDIA is covering!!!!
The military contractors are now in the enviable position of turning what they learned out of necessity - protecting the sensitive Pentagon data that sit on their own computers - into a lucrative business that could replace some of the revenue lost by cancellation of conventional weapons systems.
So, DON'T WORRY, Americams!
YOUR WORLD may be TURNING to SHIT -- but the WAR CONTRACTORS are going to be JUST FINE RAISING HELL and shutting down blogs!!!!!!!!
Executives at Lockheed Martin, which has long been the government's largest information-technology contractor, also see the demand for greater computer security spreading to energy and healthcare agencies and the rest of the nation's critical infrastructure.
Yup, there is a WHOLE PILE of dough to be made!!
You can START by INVESTIGATING ISRAEL!!!!
But for now, most companies remain focused on national security, especially in anticipating how an enemy might attack and developing the resources to strike back. Though even the existence of research on cyberweapons was once highly classified, the Air Force plans this year to award the first publicly announced contract for developing tools to break into enemy computers.
Like the MISSILE 'DEFENSE,' this is an OFFENSIVE WEAPON!
The companies are also teaming up to build a model of the Internet for testing advanced techniques.
Like I said: SHUTTING DOWN BLOGS!!!
I mean, if the U.S. really was on the up-and-up, why the SNAFUS on a TREATY?
"US, Russia disagree on cyberspace treaty; Nations to address handling growing threat of attacks" by John Markoff and Andrew E. Kramer, New York Times | June 28, 2009
NEW YORK - The United States and Russia are locked in a fundamental dispute over how to counter the growing threat of cyberwar attacks that could wreak havoc on computer systems and the Internet.
Both nations agree that cyberspace is an emerging battleground. The two sides are expected to address the subject when President Obama visits Russia next week and at the General Assembly of the United Nations in November, according to a senior State Department official....
No doubt the Russians are well aware of the problem.
Russia favors an international treaty along the lines of those negotiated for chemical weapons and has pushed for that approach at a series of meetings this year and in public statements by a high-ranking official. The United States argues that a treaty is unnecessary.
Amazing how the U.S. wants a treaty on fart-misting, 'er, global-warming for political reasons, cites this treaty or that treaty on Iran, blah, blah, blah -- but DON'T WANT ONE HERE (nor in Pakistan)!!!
Oh, STENCH!!!!
It instead advocates improved cooperation among international law-enforcement groups. If these groups cooperate to make cyberspace more secure against criminal intrusions, their work will also make cyberspace more secure against military campaigns, American officials say.
Translation: we want to work OUTSIDE the LAW -- again!
Have been SPYING ON ITS OWN for YEARS!
“We really believe it’s defense, defense, defense,’’ said the State Department official, who asked not to be identified because authorization had not been given to speak on the record.
Except for the OFFENSIVE CAPABILITIES, 'eh?
NO WONDER the Russians want treaty!
They don't want us going behind their backs!
Any agreement on cyberspace presents special difficulties because the matter touches on issues like censorship of the Internet, sovereignty, and rogue actors who might not be subject to a treaty.
We KNOW WHOM the ROGUE ACTORS are: the RUSSIAN-JEWISH MAFIA and their AmeriKan agents!
US officials say the disagreement over approach has hindered international law-enforcement cooperation, particularly given that a significant proportion of the attacks against American government targets are coming from China and Russia.
That's why I linked a post at the start of this entry!
And from the Russian perspective, the absence of a treaty is permitting a kind of arms race with potentially dangerous consequences.
But NOT for U.S. 'defense' firms!!!!
Officials around the world recognize the need to deal with the growing threat of cyberwar. Many countries, including the United States, are developing weapons for it, like “logic bombs’’ that can be hidden in computers to halt them at crucial times or damage circuitry, “botnets’’ that can disable or spy on websites and networks, or microwave radiation devices that can burn out computer circuits miles away.
But WE are ALL ABOUT PEACE, right?
If I were another nation, I wouldn't trust the U.S. as far as I could throw it.
I wouldn't trust them at all, and I don't.
The Pentagon is planning to create a military command to prepare for both defense and offensive computer warfare.
Need I type it?
And last month, Obama released his cybersecurity strategy and said he would appoint a “cybersecurity coordinator’’ to lead efforts to protect government computers, the air traffic control system and other essential systems. The administration also emphasizes the benefits of building international cooperation.
You here a cash register?
The Russian and American approaches - a treaty and a law-enforcement agreement - are not necessarily incompatible. But they represent different philosophical approaches.
In a speech on March 18, Vladislav P. Sherstyuk, a deputy secretary of the Russian Security Council, a powerful body advising that country’s president on national security, laid out what he described as Russia’s bedrock positions on disarmament in cyberspace. Russia’s proposed treaty would ban a country from secretly embedding malicious codes or circuitry that could be later activated from afar in the event of war.
And I CAN SEE WHY!!!! This WHOLE THING is about SHUTTING DOWN OTHER PEOPLE'S COMPUTERS!!!!!
And what the Russians are worried about is what surely qualifies as an ACT of WAR!!!
Other Russian proposals include the application of humanitarian laws banning attacks on noncombatants and a ban on deception in operations in cyberspace - an attempt to deal with the challenge of anonymous attacks. The Russians have also called for broader international government oversight of the Internet.
That's because the Russians are battling the Ziomafia subversives on a daily basis and from within their borders.
But American officials are particularly resistant to agreements that would allow governments to censor the Internet, saying they would provide cover for totalitarian regimes.
This from a regime that is passingn hate laws to restrict discussion of the truth!
These officials also worry that a treaty would be ineffective because it can be almost impossible to determine if an Internet attack originated from a government, a hacker loyal to that government, or a rogue acting independently.
Oh, WE KNOW WHOM -- if not WHO -- is BEHIND IT ALL and why the U.S. doesn't want a treaty.
It is PROTECTING that s***ty little Middle Eastern stink-state again!
Yeah, CAN'T FIND the HACKERS, sure!
The unique challenge of cyberspace is that governments can carry out deceptive attacks to which they cannot be linked, said Herbert Lin, director of a study by the National Research Council, a private, nonprofit organization, on the development of cyberweapons.
And THERE YOU HAVE IT!!!!!
