US plans to "Fight the Net" revealed

When it describes plans for electronic warfare, or EW, the document takes on an extraordinary tone. It seems to see the internet as being equivalent to an enemy weapons system

An interesting read on the governments plans on using and fighting the internet. The psyops messages being broadcast are particularly interesting.

Another note from the article

"In this day and age it is impossible to prevent stories that are fed abroad as part of psychological operations propaganda from blowing back into the United States - even though they were directed abroad," says Kristin Adair of the National Security Archive."

It really seems like if / when this plan gets put in motion, sites like ATS will have some serious confusion. It will be even harder to tell what is true and what is propaganda. Since this was written in 2003, we could be in the midst of it now.

I'd say it's always a possibility that the things discussed on this and other sites may or may not be true. That's why when it's on the Internet, you need to take most things with several grains of salt. It's also why it's vital for important topics to be corroborated through multiple, unrelated sources.

Good post, though. I've heard a little bit on this stuff over the past few days, but I think the article to which you've linked is one of the best so far.

Because somebody's gotta say it...

Perhaps this gives credence to the frequently suggested notion that ATS is a psyop. This place started off focusing on shadow government stuff after all. And it's pretty obvious that real or not, alien UFOs are a CIA/DoD/NSA's disinformation wet dream.

Then again, if this were a psyop, my very suggestion would probably set off a buzzer in a room somewhere.

*BZZZZZZ* "What? Another one? We'd better call it in."
