It is not my reponsibility to educate you. I have given you what you need to do the research for yourself, if you "don't have the time" that's your problem. Maybe you should use your eyes/ears more and your mouth/fingers less until you get the time?
Your "scrutiny of motives" means nothing when it's based on ignorance you are unwilling, too lazy or unmotivated enough to correct. Especially when I have illuminated exactly what you are asking in this very thread.
This forum certainly DOES NOT need you directing its members on what or where to post or whether this thread is appropriate. You have been a member for TWO DAYS mate, maybe ATS is a little beyond you right now.
Why don't you go educate yourself and come back OR read and LEARN from the Memberhsip here.

No you don't have a responsibility to educate me, I never indicated you did, I asked you to provide an explanation to your assertion that intel agencies could remove the info to a degree that it would never surface again and do it without arousing severe suspicion.
So far you have given your professional opinion that they can, because they have with ATS over someone's phone number, and told me to go and research this myself.

My main thought so far is that why would this hoax or whatever be linked to terrorism? The hoaxers or whoever wouldn't seem to have anything to gain personally or as a group by posting a complete hoax of this proportion on the internet.

I didn't know people hate springer and ats.
I'd expect that the ones whos egos were shot down by him would hate him though. He doesn't owe us any kindness or tolerance, especially to those who may try to twist his words abit.
As he said, he's only presented his information as he's recieved it. I dont see anything wrong with that.
I've only seen him as a factual, up front guy who has no patience for bs.
I think he was only making clear what he did say and didn't say.
All we ask in return is that our members try to post good stuff, and be polite to each other.

I will find out how much I can tell you and report back here by Monday then. There is no way I am going to risk this source's ire.
I truly don't want or intend to sound "cryptic" but these things are "delicate" in an ongoing investigation as I am sure you can appreciate.

That, in and of itself, doesn't mean ANYTHING relative the validity, or lack there of, of this particular "tale" (CARET) at all. My only assertion has been that with this level of scrutiny upon this particular tale there would be more action if it were genuine "TOP SECRET MATERIAL", that is MY OPINION.
Does that clear it up any?

Well, until you become civilized, why not crawl back under your rock?

What if terrorists, spies, non friendly intelligence agencies, etc... have historically used these topics and forums that cater to it for communication and raw data mining operations? Which they have, and your job was to monitor ALL "chatter" on the web?
You'd be interested at a completely different level wouldn't you? My last several posts have tried (apparently without success) get this point accross.
That's the "connection".

As Springer mentioned, if it was deemed top secret by the government it would have been gone by now, and as you all know it is still very much still running. Therefore it is either an elaborate hoax as many here have said, or it is real.
