Great timing

Anarchist website logs demanded by FBI

If I get abducted by the FBI and taken to a secret prison cell and interrogated and stacked in a nude pyramid with a bunch of unshaven black-wearing dreadlocked hippies, you'll know why.

Remember my post about anarchism? Well, among the places I'd "been reading a lot" about it was the excellent Anarchism FAQ, located at infoshop.org. Now, a week later, the FBI has requested the IP logs from a number of "dissident" webservers, including flag.blackened.net, which hosts infoshop.org and the FAQ. Over the course of a few days, I probably visited pages on that server fifty or sixty times. That might seem suspicious to some.

They requested the logs in connection to a person who was apparently involved in some terror-related government overthrow activity, or something like that. And the Anarchism FAQ probably gets many, many people visiting for a variety of reasons. But still, I thought you should know.
