۳ You've probably seen all of the articles lately on both Mainstream and  ��

۳ Alternative news sites. "NSA Recruits Hackers" "FBI Enlists Hackers help��

۳ in digital sting", etc...etc...And if you've happen to notice, this type��

۳ of activity and newsprint is becoming much more common place today.     ��

۳ Could this be because the NSA & FBI (Along with several other agencies) ��

۳ doesn't have the technical skillz necessary to combat Cyber-Crime, and/ ��

۳ or Cyber-Terrorism? Even with all there vast funding and expertise, do  ��

۳ they really need the help of hackers? HARDLY! These agencies recruit    ��

۳ degreed Computer Professionals from within corporate private sectors    ��

۳ and Universities, not some high school midnight Hackers! It's not the   ��

۳ Technical aspect of the Feds troubles that is the problem there facing. ��

۳ There Problems are in the sheer numbers of net citizens and Hackers that��

۳ are not willing to submit to there control and intrusions. You see, it's��

۳ not about recruiting hackers to aid the battle on cyber-crime. It's all ��

۳ about control. Hackers are being used by government agencies all right, ��

۳ but is it for the purpose that is being claimed? Or is it possible that ��

۳ this is only the beginning of a governmental plan that runs much deeper ��

۳ then what is only visible at the surface level. And the Hackers that are��

۳ involved - "all pawns in the game". The game of "Divide & Conquer"...   ��   

۳                                                                         ��

۳       Divide and Conquer (or The Price of Maintaining Status Quo)       ��

۳                                                                         �� 

۳ Human technology is outevolving human nature. As technological advances ��

۳ are becoming more prevalent at an alarmingly fast pace, many of us fall ��

۳ by the wayside trying to understand and keep up with those advances.    ��

۳ Those with a natural aptitude are far fewer than those of us who have to��

۳ struggle through the implications of the technology which has become a  ��

۳ part of the lives of so many. A new world order is evolving right before��

۳ us and many panic from the implications of that, especially governments ��

۳ who see their lack of control over this new order as a threat to their  ��

۳ own powers.                                                             �� 

۳                                                                         �� 

۳ One way governments can try to maintain control is to gain the knowledge��

۳ for themselves and compete for supremacy. One way to gain such knowledge��

۳ is to recruit from among the very people they villify as dissidents,    ��

۳ namely script kiddies and hackers. Those who can be bought are bought   ��

۳ while the rest are labeled as anti-government and criminals. Okay, so a ��

۳ hacker can find security holes in Os's and applications that most of us ��

۳ use on a daily basis. So what... If their purpose was to snoop into     ��

۳ systems why tell about the security breaches that are found? Would you  ��

۳ rather not know who's snooping or could be snooping around in your      ��

۳ system? Invasion of privacy? What privacy? There is none and never has  ��

۳ been. That's an illusion that most of us prefer to live with. Your next ��

۳ door neighbor probably knows as much about you as you do yourself. And I��

۳ bet he didn't have to find a security hole in your applications to know ��

۳ it, either. People tend to forget that if you don't want something to be��

۳ known about yourself, then the subject matter is best left unsaid to    ��

۳ begin with... because regardless of the medium used to say it, someone  ��

۳ will always know.                                                       �� 

۳                                                                         �� 

۳ Humans are social animals and cannot survive well in isolation. The     ��

۳ script kiddies of today are no different from the young adolescents who ��

۳ used to peep into girls' windows in the middle of the night, or write   ��

۳ graffitti on walls making a statement of their own, usually to bring    ��

۳ notice to themselves in a world that doesn't spend much time thinking of��

۳ kids as people, too. "All the world's a stage".. William Shakespeare. In��

۳ truth today, all the world is a stage as technology has delivered it    ��

۳ into the hands of the masses.                                           �� 

۳                                                                         �� 

۳ So, why the governmental interference and the ongoing fight for free    ��

۳ speech and the advancement of knowledge? Because the government wants   ��

۳ and must maintain control in order to survive itself. Freedom of speech ��

۳ itself is an illusion that most journalists have been trying to make a  ��

۳ reality for centuries. As an example, Kennedy vs. Clinton. What's the   ��

۳ difference? (okay, so Monica Lewinski isn't a Marilyn Monroe). The point��

۳ is one made media headlines while the other did very little except raise��

۳ a few eyebrows from time to time, neither of which incident would have  ��

۳ any bearing on whether either was capable of leading a nation, but in   ��

۳ the most recent case it did accomplish something: a division within the ��

۳ ranks of a political party. The story was 'allowed' to become public    ��

۳ knowledge and fanned flames of outrage throughout the nation within some��

۳ parts of society, while other parts did little more than raise an       ��

۳ eyebrow from time to time. But the division gave another political      ��

۳ faction more power.                                                     �� 

۳                                                                         �� 

۳ The word hacker according to the dictionary basically means a tinkerer  ��

۳ or someone who tinkers. The dictionary doesn't specify a certain thing  ��

۳ a hacker tinkers with. By that definition, many of us in the general    ��

۳ population could be called hackers. The word has become a negative label��

۳ for a group of tinkerers who happen to be very good at tinkering with   ��

۳ something the general population has little or no knowledge about...    ��

۳ : computers. The word hacker engenders in most people's minds with the  ��

۳ picture of someone sitting in a darkened room nosying around on the net,��

۳ writing out code to breach the security of countless computers for      ��

۳ nefarious purposes, be it corporate espionage, snooping in someone's    ��

۳ email or whatever. Granted, hackers can do that and more.... but as in  ��

۳ one of my opening statements, so what? Just because you can do something��

۳ doesn't mean you will or should. It's a matter of choice. Hackers are as��

۳ much a part of society as any other culture. They have the knowledge    ��

۳ that government wants, to preserve a way of life that is dying. The     ��

۳ governments want control and have none. The media has become little more��

۳ than a governmental ragbag to cut off the very people who could advance ��

۳ that knowledge. Very seldom do you see an article about what the culture��

۳ has done that has advanced knowledge and when there is such an article  ��

۳ it is placed in such a way that it receives very little notice from the ��

۳ general population.                                                     �� 

۳                                                                         �� 

۳ Such is the way of politics.... divide and conquer. The divisions within��

۳ the culture itself are a threat as differences in philosophies among the��

۳ leaders create gaps in the sharing of knowledge while garnering power to��

۳ each faction for an intercultural war. The only thing left for the      ��

۳ governments to do will be to monitor the war from the outside and woo   ��

۳ contenders with promises of wealth and power, while those who don't     ��

۳ "sell out" are labeled dissidents and criminals. The dissidents and     ��

۳ criminals (usually the notorious script kiddies) are used to fan public ��

۳ outrage and fear. As public outrage and fear escalates, lines are drawn ��

۳ in the proverbial sand as factions form to compete with each other for  ��

۳ supremacy.                                                              �� 

۳                                                                         �� 

۳ Remember your history lessons... Lincoln once stated that a divided     ��

۳ nation cannot stand. How so can anything stand divided against itself?  ��

۳ A culture divided becomes a dead culture. There will always be hackers  ��

۳ in one form or another, hiding out in the darkened rooms for fear of    ��

۳ discovery, but will the culture itself survive? If so, how will it      ��

۳ survive?                                                                �� 

۳                                                                         ��
