[net.politics] Jamming the NSA

mck@ratex.UUCP (Daniel Kian Mc Kiernan) (04/18/85)

     Someone pointed out (in his keywords line) that the NSA is probably
looking in on netnews; he included a keyword to get their attention (and
waste their time).
     In *The Prisoner*, there were people who did this sort of thing as a
matter of routine; I believe that they were called 'Jammers'.
     I suggest that we all become Jammers!  Some where in your keywords
list, include a word like 'overthrow', 'assassination', &c.

                               TNX,

Interesting idea, but I suspect that the NSA is a bit smarter than
that.  Remember, just because you don't like someone doesn't mean
they aren't as smart as you are.  I suspect that the process is
automated far beyond just looking for keywords...
