"The Guardian and The Telegraph are reporting that US based Ntrepid Corporation has been awarded a $2.76 million contract to develop software aimed at manipulating social media. The project aims to enable military personnel to control multiple 'sock puppets' located at a range of geographically diverse IP addresses, with the aim of spreading pro-US propaganda. The project will not target English speaking web sites (yet) but will be limited to foreign languages, including Arabic, Farsi, Urdu and Pashto. The project will be funded as part of the $200 million Operation Earnest Voice program run by US Central Command."

evidently veterans benefits aren't as important as intardnet propaganda...i wonder what that mos classification is?

Financial Facts of the Day:

Did you know? It’s estimated that nearly 50% of US Treasury Securities are held in the Federal Reserve and Intra-governmental Holdings.

In other words, of the outstanding debt, the government actually owns half of its own debt.
