Gravitymaster 0 #1 February 20, 2011 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. According to the contract, the software would "protect the identity of government agencies" by employing a number of false signals to convince users that the poster is in fact a real person. A single user could manage unique background information and status updates for up to 10 fake people from a single computer. The software enables the government to shield its identity through a number of different methods including the ability to assign unique IP addresses to each persona and the ability to make it appear as though the user is posting from other locations around the world.

I can think of a few suspects. Here's the contract. http://www.seankerrigan.com/docs/PersonaManagementSoftware.pdf] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How dare you make such a suggestion! Me? This is just one more indication of how OUR gooberment is screwing us. Just one more....there will be others. One more reason why we need Wikileaks and others. IF the gooberment wants your opinion they will give it or force feed it to you. One of these days, people will wake up and say, "No More!". nah....sheeple never stand up.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

It freaked me out to find validation and confirmation to my fantasy trip in post #17. Personally I think this kind of thing needs to stay under wraps. Its just another tactic in a very long war using new technologies and tactics. I guess there are those who don't really support our troops and their efforts to keep the US safe as they try to blather on about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Critical Thinking Alert-- What is the legitimacy of the story? Can it be corroborated by other sources? Who/what stands to gain by publishing this? False Flag (id est, publishing the story in an effort to discredit the source)? I'm not buying any of it because it too easy to pick apart. mh ."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Question is, do you trust that the government won't use it to manipulate public opinion in the U.S and our allies? Sorry if I seem cynical but I don't trust our government enough to be unconcerned.
