Perhaps Y2K isn't the job the government had in mind for this equipment. Much of the hype behind the Y2K crisis came from the government. Perhaps they just wanted to use the oportunity to buy as much computer equipment as possible. It has suddenly become much easier for any measure strengthening the governments role in the Internet to gain support with the public. We have $9 million of computing power, why not put it to use hunting down "hackers"... and anyone who has a copy of or literature regarding DeCSS.
That counter at the top of the page lets you see the/. effect in action... I reloaded the page after a second or two and there were about 15 new hits on the page. I'd like too see the look on all of those third graders faces when they find out how many hits their page received overnight.
I think there needs to be a page where one can go to get news on Linux games... what games are currently available for Linux users, and what development is being done. Does such a thing exist? If not, let's make one!
I heard Bill Gates and his goonies already have plans for a paperless bathroom. Did you know a single DVD-ROM drive can store more data than 3,924,492 rolls of toilet paper? That's enough TP to clean up the crap that M$ releases in an entire year, and almost enough to TP Bill's entire house!
If I were you, I would agree to do it. Then send a message to every single user explaining exactly what you have been asked to do, and warning everyone. Tell them you may be fired for this, but it would be wise for them to watch what they attach to their emails as thier superiors have the desire to get snoopy.
Oh yeah... The machine that is America is oiled with the blood of the working class.
