American Idiocy at its finest...

Well well.. here we have a student using completely free and legal information, and being told to quash it because of the FREE and LEGAL information it provides.

The bigwigs worry about what a terrorist might do.. crippling the lines of communication.

So what do we do? Announce to the world that this information is available from free and legal sources on the internet, so that anyone wanting to be the next Osama can go lay a few sticks of dynamite at a few crucial junctures.

It never ceases to amaze me how idiotic some can be.. here the whole article talks about 'Don't let this get out', while at the same time telling us that this information is available in the public domain.

I actually hope someone bombs this shiat out.. teach us a lesson.. apparently 9/11 did not do that well enough.

Well if you got politicians with 5 grade intelligence, no wonder that this type of thing happens.
Anyone who is smart can get this information even if it was not public info.
But then again we got to watch out for this clumsy construction road people digging up the road and cutting up lines.
What they should do is secure the borders, cause damn they alot of illegal aliens roaming around lately.

Looks like politicians aren't the only ones with 5 grade intelligence...

I doubt that communication companies are hiring illegal aliens to work the chain gang of digging trenches to lay cable...

True. Just the contractors they use hire them. Construction (of any kind) is one of the biggest hires of illegals.

I know the telcos have their own construction groups, and I'm pretty sure they aren't hiring illegals either...

Sure communication companies have their own construction groups but they also make extensive use of contractors to do construction.
