I got this e-mail for where I work regarding Blocking of Freerepublic: From: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Sent: Monday, June 27, 2011 8:14 AM To: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Subject: Freerepublic.com
XX. XXXXXXX:
As per our telephone conversation, I cannot provide access to Freerepublic.com. One of analysis tools we utilize to perform checks of sites indicated FR had been or is currently hosting malicious software or serving as an intermediary to domains hosting malicious software. As I stated on the telephone, this does not mean the site is currently hosting anything malicious or serving as an intermediary for malicious sites; rather, it has done so in the past.
Thank you,
Lunch at my desk is MY time to do with as I please.
Greetings US Navy Vet:
In 2005, while TAD at an USAF facility, I was surprised to find FR was blocked when using USAF browsers. So was DU. USCG, on the other hand, did not block either FR or DU.
Cheers,

It is an effort to control the flow of classified materials.
Yeah, we had a term for this kind of crap in the Navy: FUBAR. (FReeped up beyond all repair).
An apt term. That’s for sure.
