nokilli writes "Sounding the alarmist tone many of us became used to in the early days of the web, The New York Times has a story that talks about "national security" concerns over the myriad ways in which two people (i.e., terrorists) can communicate using the Internet today [NYT=Kneel before Zod]. They're talking about monitoring chat rooms, email servers, etc. I'd like to see how they plan on monitoring my mage as it talks to your cleric in some obscure, nearly impossible to reach (unless you're level 50) corner of our favorite MUD."

You retarded?

Argh! Enough, you retards! After chuckling at length at the original comment about the level 50 corner of the MUD it was completely ruined by the dozen postings by you literalist, humorless, socially retarded jerks and the 'by a sniffer' comments. Get over yourselves and your technical prowess!
