   How the Central Intelligence Agency did not think about how identities could be revealed and covers blown by using a tool most people access regularly is extremely worrisome. Like, I'm worried our tax dollars are going to waste. Evidently, we should be paying reporters to locate Osama bin Laden.

   T'would make the most sense Wolfger.

   I mean seriously he may have ood ratings, but with the satellite technology at our disposal in this day and age and the massive computer networks that can be used to focus these things and search for heat sgnatures that match certain heat signatures. Nah only people who are highly skilled professionals that never let any info out as they aren't allowed to even work in the U.S. if they work for the C.I.A. How does the info ever get back here then? The C.I.A. has it's purpose. and anyone can be turned over.
   
   
   The question would be what did they do that caused someone to feel malicious enough to let that happen. If you're in the C. I. A. you have a security clearance. You have access to intel that others do not. The media would attack for that purpose and that purpose only. If they felt something was being covered up. Which with this administration be sure to know that they know there are cover-ups.
   
   
   Especially the media who went an entire year not mentioning the fact the person who is supposed to uphold our constitution decided to throw the fourth ammendment out the window without asking the people first who he has to ask. The media is worldwide. You cannot expect them to leave the United States alone if the rest of the world is placed under scrutiny.
   
   
   The other side to that is what does our Govt. do in this aspect as a cover-up and have you ever even thought of which dept. is in charge of this affair. If so why would they be covering things up that should be open knowledge and working on covering the things up that should not be public knowledge instead.

   I have just read your ramble and I don't want to unnecessarily criticise it but do you think you could rewrite it so that it makes sense and I can understand the point you're trying to make?

   Online Stalking

   The fact is, you can take a cover story, a name, an email, etc. and look it up online. You can take a person's name and birthday and pull everything about them from some American based websites for $39. I won't publish the URL because I think it is a terrible statement about how bad the U.S. government is doing these days. Andrew's post is just incorrect (and hard to understand) where he says any blown cover is because an insider wanted it to be blown. If you think the CIA has an airtight methodology for creating covers in the modern computer age, you've been watching too many movies. Government beaurocracies always lag behind technology because of the red tape it takes to implement changes. But the problem in America is the ruling party (Republicans) are slimebags and usually don't give a damn about privacy, or spam, or anything else important unless they are filling their wallets with a poor person's food money or a third world countries babyfood money. And I'm an American saying that.

   If bio information can be obtained online, then false bio information can be inserted and then used as a cover.

   You can look up anything online these days...
   
   ...I, recently, had a court date for a trespassing charge but I forgot what date I had to go to court. So I went to some site, typed in my name, city and state - and VOILA!! "Trespassing - pending judgement on March 9, 2006."
   
   Thank God I didn't miss my court date.
