Interesting, thanks for posting. Seeing as how I don't trust the US gov. much I can't help but wonder if this is some preemptive salvo for the ability to lock down the net. That and the wonderful commercials of how Lockheed Martin is looking out for safety on the net makes me wonder.

No need to wonder, just keep an eye out for legislation coming out of Congress.

For example, the first PATRIOT act was passed by the House 46 days after the towers fell.

But, that wasn't the scary part. It was the fact that no member of Congress was allowed to read the contents of the act prior to voting on it...
