It was slightly one month ago when I wrote about domestic spying perpetrated with the use of
drones by The Department of Homeland Security, now we have the issue of the military wanting
the ability to hack into others computers to do various things for their advantage. Take a look
at this article from RTTV.com and let me know what you think.
Air Force wants to be able to hack everything

The US Air Force is spending $10 million on an effort to hack into opponents’ computer
networks to “destroy, deny, degrade, disrupt, deceive, corrupt or usurp” their ability to use the
Internet to their advantage.
The ability to hack into networks is part of a list of the military’s “Cyberspace Warfare Operations
Capabilities” that it wishes to acquire, reports Wired.
Instead of giving the ability to conduct cyber strikes solely to the White House, the Air Force
wants its Trojans and worms to be available to its own officials, including top personnel and
operational commanders.
Last week, the Pentagon announced a new $110 million program to make cyber strikes a more
routine effort in wartime military operations. “Plan X,” as the Pentagon named it, will officially
begin on September 20, but Darpa has already invested $600,000 to cyber security firm
Invincea to begin its research immediately.
In early 2007, the Pentagon declared that it “had no plans to shift its cyber warfare focus from a
defensive mindset to an offensive one.” But later that year, the Air Force began developing
offensive cyber attack strategies, which have materialized into budgeted plans this year.
Other branches of the military are also discussing hacking as a war strategy.
“I can tell you that as a commander in Afghanistan in the year 2010, I was able to use my cyber
operations against my adversary with great impact,” said Lt. Gen. Richard Mills at a technology
conference last week. The lieutenant general also discussed a Marine company that will be
stationed at the National Security Agency to “increase the availability of intelligence analysts,
intelligence collectors and offensive cyber operations … so that forward deployed commander in
the heat of combat has full access to the cyber domain.”
Invincea, the company in charge of putting together the cyber security project, was contracted
one month after it contacted the government with its proposal. The firm has worked with the
government before, analyzing cyber attacks facing the US.
As malware becomes increasingly more common, the US has changed its cyber status from
defensive to offensive.
IfHacking IsIllegalWhyIt OkForThe
Government ToDoIt?
Maybe this is a rhetorical question, maybe I’m not seeing the big picture and recognizing that all
of the defensive (or should I say offensive) measures that this government takes is for the good.
I might be out of touch but I can’t help but think that there is a lot of distrust in the citizens of
this country so much so that most of the measures are taken and probably tested against us.
All I know is that if you or I was caught attempting to hack into someones systems especially the
governments, we would be under the cell with in days. Big brother is taking every step to
contain and maintain the people in its own country. Oh well, what to do, what to do? Keep living,
stay out of trouble and mind your own business…Be Smart, Think First.
