Homeland Security: "Bloggers are dangerous!"

[photopress:blogger.jpg,full,center]

The US Governemnt is staging a terrorist-like War Game, called “Cyber Storm”, to simulate an attack against our country’s infrastructure, ala Die Hard 4. Attacks would be carried out against transportation and utilities, using hijackers, hackers, and bloggers.

Wait, what?

Apparently Homeland Security is worried that us troublesome bloggers will reveal vital gas lines or something in the case of an attack, so we’re a threat. Watch out for bloggers!

We can spout all kinds of stuff that the Terrorists can use to blow you up. We’re dangerous!

This is such crap.
