The End Of Free Internet: DHS Seizes Websites for Merely LINKING to Copyrighted Material

Eric Blair
Activist Post

Apparently the Department of Homeland Security is now authorized to rewrite and enforce copyright infringement laws.  In a stunning precedent, the recent round of domain seizures to shut down websites that allowed illegal streaming of the Super Bowl also included a few other websites that were seized simply for linking to infringing content.

‘Stuxnet’ worm could cause ‘Chernobyl-like disaster’ in Iran, intel assessment warns

A recent Russian intelligence assessment warned that the "Stuxnet" computer worm that's embedded itself into Iran's Russian-built Bushehr nuclear plant could cause a "Chernobyl-like disaster" should the site be switched on.

The document was obtained exclusively by the Associated Press, which cited Dmitry Rogozin, Russia's envoy to NATO, as worrying that the Bushehr facility could end up like the Ukrainian nuclear site that experienced a nuclear disaster in 1986, rendering the city virtually uninhabitable.

The "Stuxnet" worm is malicious software code that makes nuclear centrifuges spin out of control. It targets computer control systems made by German industrial giant Siemens, commonly used to manage water supplies, oil rigs, power plants and other facilities.

Stuxnet is able to recognize a specific facility's control network and then destroy it, according to German computer security researcher Ralph Langner, who has been analyzing Stuxnet since it was discovered in June.

Were a device such as a nuclear reactor ever switched on and the operators were unable to turn it off, it could produce the fallout equivalent to a "small nuclear bomb," the Russian assessment warned, according to the AP.

ISRAEL MANIPULATES INTERNET CONTENT; a case of WIKIPEDIA

"WIKIPEDIA COMPROMISED, a Threat to the security of the USA"

by Editorial Staff VETERANS TODAY

The government of Israel, part of a well organized and funded intelligence operation, has designated millions of dollars to undermine the integrity of Wikileaks and to systematically attack, through hacking, spam, server overloads and “pressure” on journalists, all internet content that isn’t biased in favor of Israel.
Evidence is now clear.  Wikipedia, the vast online encyclopedia used as a reference source by amateur and professional scholars, journalists and researchers of all kinds is now proven to be subject to a massive assault by the government of Israel.  Hundreds of Wikipedia editors are being recruited and trained each week, tasked by the Israeli government with instilling open “Zionist” bias in even the most innocent areas, not just news, but personal biographies and, especially history.
The greatest danger is to children, who have grown up using Wikipedia as a wonderful resource.  Now our children need protection from propaganda, bias and lies from a source that has, for so many years, enriched their lives.





This systematic assault on free speech and destruction of a world wide resource of unmeasured value is, perhaps, one of the most serious acts of intellectual terrorism imaginable.
Veterans Today strongly urges all responsible web editors to enforce similar policies and warn their readers and staff.  We further warn all site moderators of suspicious comments that parrot common pro-Israel talking points.  We have tracked common IP addresses to dozens of non-existent readers of late.  We have also noted that proxy servers (in) Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere, are being used to “launder” these internet terror attacks.
Veterans Today, with great sadness and reluctance, is now forced to ban all Wikipedia content from the site, under the assumption that such content is adversarial to the security of the United States and its military forces.
