Tracking the Terrorists Online

Anti-Globalism points out a story at the German magazine Spiegel profiling two small US companies that monitor terrorist networks online — IntelCenter and SITE Intelgroup.

Well, I am not reading Slashdot anymore. Fascists took the thing over and are threatening to choke people and make them die a thousand deaths. Slashdot was the last democratic forum/site on the Internet, now it is dead, ruled by some Psychotic Bush followers.

Give Them an Official Title
