i haven’t visited cryptome in several months and so, intrigued by this post itself, i moseyed on over there to see what’s new. i read several htm pages and then came to this related one:

“A few days ago I tried to post an interesting story to Slashdot called “The Gentleperson’s Guide To Forum Spies”. The article was written by an ex-COINTELPRO spy, and describes in explicit detail how agents control and manipulate Internet forums. So, I tried to post this story and discovered that each time I posted it some Slashdot editor would quickly (within 3 minutes) delete the story before it came to the atention of other editors or readers. Someone on the Slashdot editorial board does NOT want Slashdot readership to learn the techniques used to control an internet forum. Note that these techniques only work so long as the readership remains IGNORANT of how they work. A little forensic investigation by someone with DB access will even show which editor(s) repeatedly deleted this story on 18 July 2012. Honest editors are smart enough to figure out what to about COINTELPRO infiltrator editors. Given that I have a natural dislike of censorship, I’m trying a different tactic to expose my fellow Slashdot readers to this censored content.”
hm. well, slashdot has never really hooked me, not even just on an visceral entertainment level.
feh.
