is this like prohibition era liquor licenses where you have to have a “license” but the government never issue licenses.

IOW only ACORN style browshirts are allowed to have this “employment license”.

This is like the USSR mandating every office have a political officers.

USSR in the USA.

Translation: If your company is deemed "critical," a new set of regulations kick in involving who you can hire, what information you must disclose, and when the government would exercise control over your computers or network.

>>I’ve got a nice 15 dBi grid dish hooked up to my wrt54g, ready to go peer-to-peer using custom firmware if the need arises.<<

Can you please decode that for me?
My DH is an IT person and installed phones before this.
He is pretty bright.

If we lose the internet, I want to keep in touch with the rebels. ;-)

When it looked like Iran was ready to have a revolution, I suggested that what was needed was a way to deploy wireless routers that could communicate with each other to form a self-organizing peer-to-peer network outside of the Mullah's control. Little did I know that we would need one too.

Sounds like you should get started on that plan.

It’s like Glenn Beck has said - if the right hand is in the news, check what the left hand is doing! Except in this case it’s more like a Medusa (or hydra? whatever).
