Traffic from Uncle

June 16th, 2008 by admin

You say you’re bored and want to bug the piss out of everybody’s favorite “Uncle.”

You say you’ve been told you can up your readership by getting Spook Central to look at your site and you want to give it a try.

-Ok. But be aware that if you do get their attention they are not going to go away -ever.

They will stick your site along with your email address and anything else they can find on you in their database along side about a bazillion other sites and automatically monitor for any interesting traffic.

That’s right. Your personalized monitoring will be done by a massive computer network armed with customized data filtering and collection software and unless you do something really weird, your site will remain untouched by human hands. –That kinda takes the fun out of it.

Here’s some starting points:
This site has a list of words they call “spook words,” posted back in ‘98 that purportedly will get the NSA to look at your site.

The Register posted a short list back in 2001.

Here is a site that claims that the original was a joke.
There is a good link list at the bottom of the page although there are a few broken links.

Here is a DOD acronym list.

Here is the DOJ contact list for guidance on the FOIA (freedom of information act).

Here is Loyola University’s links to military and government intel. sites. (with this disclaimer: You should be aware that the government interprets your viewing of DoD web sites as tacit agreement to monitoring while connected to those sites.)

Here is Loyola’s link site for Strategic Intelligence.

Here is Australia’s Inspector-General of Intelligence and Security (IGIS)

Referring to DOD acronyms like AA&E (arms, ammunition, and explosives ) or R&S (reconnaissance and surveillance) in a message to someone in the Middle East or in the former Soviet block will likely get you noticed.

Another way to get the attention of those folks the rest of us would like to avoid is to send encrypted messages to foreign governments or “persons of interest.”

–This last suggestion alone will probably get my site looked at. — I hope they don’t bore easily.
