Tried to post this earlier but the source is on our “Do not Post List” so I will sum it up here.
Top-secret Obama safe house leaked on LimeWire
July 30, 2009
Congressman Edolphus Towns (http://www.house.gov/towns/) wants to start regulating the file sharing industry because of all of the sensitive government info that has been leaked (although n mention is made of the NYT’s and their leaks during the Bush admin).
He is quoted as saying:
“As far as I am concerned, the days of self-regulation should be over for the file-sharing industry,”
“In the last administration, the Federal Trade Commission took a see-no-evil, hear-no-evil approach to the file sharing software industry. I hope the new administration is revisiting that approach.”
“For our sensitive Government information, the risk is simply too great to ignore,”
I have been busy this summer, so I did not know about the safe house leak. Of course I do not think any sensitive info should be leaked esp. when doing so could risk the safety of the President (regardless of who it is), citizens or our military.
I do have my doubts about it being the true reasn for this. I think it is about shutting down the free flow of information. They are approaching it on various fronts trying to shut down as many avenues of communication a possible. This one is wrapped in the American Flag. Maybe he thinks it will lessen the charges of trying to suppress the voice of the people. Not working for me.
All this will backfire BIGTIME in his face.
