According to connected.staff these FBI agents are looking for "hackers phreaks" and people having copywritten programs. I am pretty peaved about this, we don't know how long thev'e been here, what rights they have on the system, or much else. Just that they are here. Watching us. Of course, I never use my account for illegal activities. Shit, I don't even do much illegal (except smoke a bit of pot) But I do not like the idea of giving up my rights against undue searches. This seems a reflection on the state of America today. This used to be a free country, but now there is a pig or FBI agent watching EVERYTHING you do. This is NOT the America described in the constitution. It's not a society of free, independent people. It is a dictatorship that must spy on it's own people in order to survive. I am anxious to here what others that read these groups think about this. Have A Nice Day turmoil@hebron.connected.com The FBI have infiltrated this site, I am activly searching for a new site
