I am in the US Air Force and I have recieved so such message. The only thing we have been restricted from viewing was wiki-leaks. [/quote] Don't forget the memo last year about the book that ol' what's-his-name from Seal Team 6 wrote. Remember that one? Where they told us "Hey, you can read it, we don't give a shit, but if you read anything in there that's classified you cannot tell anyone about it" LOL WTF are they that stupid? Also, to the guy posting about giving up rights or whatever- Look. IF this story is true at all, here's what it boils down to. Say I am in the Air Force, I use one of the Air Force's computers- it is not a personal computer, and its use is monitored and there are rules on what you may or may not view on it. Let's assume this story is true- no one is telling the airmen they can't read about this. They are telling the airmen they cannot read about it using government computers. BIG difference. Most deployed guys have a personal computer in the sandbox. Even still, it's pretty stupid if it's true. I doubt anyone is getting the whole story though, I'm sure it really was no big deal and just got blown out of proportion like the whole "Obammy is taking the hot meals!" bullshit. [/quote]

Military told not to read Obama-scandal news

President Obama has said the outrage over the federal government’s decision to monitor citizens’ phone activity is all “hype.”
He might want to share his opinion with the
U.S. Air Force, which is ordering members of the service not to look at news stories about it.
WND has received an unclassified NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) that warns airmen not to look at news stories related to the data-mining scandal.
The notice applies to users of the Air Force NIPRNET (Non-classified Internet Protocol Router Network), which is the only way that many troops stationed overseas and on bases in the U.S. are able to access the Internet.
The last line of the executive summary states:
“Users are not to use AF NIPRNET systems to access the Verizon phone records collection and other related news stories because the action could constitute a Classified Message Incident.”
Cindy McGee, the mother of an airman stationed in the UAE, spoke with WND.
“The fact that our government is attempting to censor our service members from the truth of what is happening here at home is truly frightening and disheartening,” said McGee.
