I am posting this as a FYI, I did search for it but didnt find anything. If the Air Force has this then that means there is a very good chance other branched of Govt do as well.

The U.S. Air Force purchased software designed to create an army of fake, on line people.

What does all this mean to us? Well, for one that they have something to hide and that, as they say, they have a very pronounced interest in " manipulating public opinion on key information and news".

This comes on the heels of another such Air Force public deception venture: the creation of the Air Force counter blogging command...I kid you not. They even have flow charts for their counter blogging agents, with detailed instructions on how to approach internet postings that don't meet with the Air Force approval and how to change public perception of the subject matter:

I just found this through another source that linked to this Examiner site:

http://www.examiner.com/social-media-in-national/us-gov-software-creates-fake-people-on-social-networks-to-promote-propoganda#ixzz1ER3OSJMQ


The US government is offering private intelligence companies contracts to create software to manage "fake people" on social media sites and create the illusion of consensus on controversial issues.

The contract calls for the development of "Persona Management Software" which would help the user create and manage a variety of distinct fake profiles online. The job listing was discussed in recently leaked emails from the private security firm HBGary after an attack by internet activist last week.


Apparently the government is frightened of the growing liberty movement.

It has been mentioned before, and other sources have confirmed that the government is active online.
But any time it has been brought up, shouts of "Conspiracy Theory nuts" have drowned it out.

I am fully convinced that this site and others have government trolls , both monitoring and posting.

I am pretty certain we do. My hope is that they learn something. Some are obvious and some aren't.

If that's the best their money can buy, they're hopeless. No, I don't think dujac was one of them.

I post this only for tose who are on the fence about Ron Paul and what he stands for please beware hat there are professional people out there trying to make this decision for you. Go with your gut feeling on this and you wont be let down.

Caught: Legal Thugs for hire.

Several of the most prestigious internet security firms in DC; those RECOMMENDED by the Department of Justice.... have been caught.

They, on paper, were offering their 'services' to both Bank of America and US Chamber of Commerce to intimidate and put pressure on the careers, personal and family lives
of critics of both of these Corporations. Character assassinations for hire.
