Dept. Of Homeland Security Chooses Groove, P2P

Ryan Barrett writes "Groove Networks has announced that their P2P infrastructure will power the Homeland Security Information Network, an initiative to increase information sharing between federal, state, and local intelligence agencies. (The initiative doesn't give the govt. more information, it just helps agencies better share the information they already have.) Groove Workspace has also been certified with two govt. security standards, FIPS 140-2 level 1 and NIAP CCITSE. In related news, Groove's developers have been diagnosed with acronym whiplash."

    As I set here, underemployed, and sucking down a beer, to be able to sleep tonight, im getting so tired of this goverment..

    Wastefull spending, out every seam it has. Stabbing the workers of america so often that they look like that goatese guy.

    And you know what, all of you are helping them.. makes me sick. I feel sometimes, that the development of the internet is sort of like the guys working on nuclar power, thinking "thought it would be used for good things!"

    Well boys, the internet, and all the developement has just helped them monitor us so closely, they dont need any cameras. Because they know every dollar you spend and where.

    They can share your information between agency's, kewl, and some stupid luser, will get some stupid infection from some porn site, and spill the guts of this system. They will just blame redmond, and go on, in fact, im sure nobody would ever know. You know their so good about telling us about their "Misshaps"...

    blah..
