Slashdot Mirror

That's an easy question to answer. If you are an AC then c6gunner can't send your details to his megaphony pals.
What's the latest figures on holocaust survivors again? Isn't it over a million in Israel alone? Must be very hard for Jewish people to get life insurance as that little nugget throws the actuarial tables right out the window.
Now might be a good time to point out to your Christian Zionist friends where the Talmud says Jesus is right now? Sorry, I shouldn't have said Jesus. What's the Jewish name for him and what's it mean again? Enlighten us with your love.

Wonder if Dave would have had a problem if she was described as a nasty Muslim woman? Maybe he's a Megaphony

Isn't there already an organization out to hunt down every Iranian and Muslim on the Internet? Yep. It's called G.I.Y.U.S.:

I think it's a good idea for any political organization to do this.

Judging by results on Reddit, Barack Obama's campaign had a similar idea.

Perhaps it something more like what GIYUS uses. This software allows them to generate cyber-flashcrouds easily, which makes their agenda appear mainstream rather than minority. Using combinations of RSS, Instant-messagers and email, you can direct the actions of thousands or even millions effortlessly.

Dark smoke, light smoke, smoke screen. You can't respond so you mod down.

If you can't dispute the burning buildings, dispute the *colour* of the smoke, if you can't dispute the dead babies, dispute the *number* of dead babies.

You fucking lying murderers.

There are wierder online PR things. See the Megaphone Desktop Toolbar. This is a piece of software designed to pump up pro-Israel responses in online polls and blogs. The toolbar pops up "alerts" when some central site sends them out. Nothing new there. But when it tells the user about a poll, the options are to vote their way, automatically, or not to vote at all. Site-specific scripts do the voting for you. Cute.

It is supposedly distributed on behalf of the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs. That's a new development - government sponsored adware. But that may be a fake endorsement. The "gyius.org" site itself has a "cloaked domain", and the "standwithus.org" site with the endorsement has phony domain registration info. There's no real contact info for either. There's an EULA with no real company name, and mention of a remote update capability. So this may be some clever scheme to get people to install adware/spyware.

Somebody in the security business or the press really should chase this down. There's been an article in The Globe and Mail, but it's not about the technology.

As an Israeli, I'm more than a little surprised to read that on Slashdot, I thought the people here were more slightly savvy, even we Israelis, we do not believe the propaganda so completely. Am I against the invasion? No, of course not, this is the only home we have and if Israel is to survive we need to increase our size - yet I clearly recognize the reason for the invasion.

In Israel, it is well known that this war was planned for over one year already!

Seriously though, thank you. Without the USA, Israel would be in the real trouble so you sorts of people a very useful to us. You may wish to install the Megaphone application from http://www.giyus.org/ - this tool will alert you to polls and articles so you can skew the results in Israel's favour.
