Way Creepy! Read the Wikipedia Article The Infragard website Infragard Member's Website The Progressive on Infragard Infragard is a program by the FBI and private business designed to guard infrastructure however it raises serious privacy issues, as refrenced in the Progressive article posted below...

disclaimer from the wikipedia article
Submitted by Rob Richards on Mon, 02/11/2008 - 3:09am.Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unverifiable material may be challenged and removed.
This article references two sources, the first is an article from The Progressive, the second, a post from some guy's blog titled "Tinfoil hat brigade generates fear about Infragard".
Yes
Submitted by security_six on Mon, 02/11/2008 - 3:18am.But how much longer are you going to focus on the Wikipedia article, instead of on the other pages? In case you didn't notice the Progressive raised some interesting and disturbing points. Plus you have the two official InfraGard websites to look at... Screw Wikipedia. I threw it out for completeness sake.
Are we going to talk Infragard here, or split hairs over Wikipedia?
It's about the sources dude.
Submitted by Rob Richards on Mon, 02/11/2008 - 12:00pm.Okay
Submitted by security_six on Mon, 02/11/2008 - 12:38pm.I guess we are going to split hairs.
Screw the wikipedia link. How about the link to the Progressive article? Intermediary? I doubt it. What about the two official Infragard sites? Do you have anything at all to say about the topic? I don't know a lot about it and felt the best way to open up discussion would be by posting links to available information sources about it.
But if you want to split hairs, that's fine too.

DHS programs...(beyond rhetoric)
Submitted by chad360 on Mon, 02/11/2008 - 1:47pm.Safecom is one of a myriad of programs that focus on "infrastructure"...
...my specialty is Telecommunications, and open-access spectrum(ISM & NUII).
On this thread, I appreciate your frustration S6. Anyways...
...I was under the impression that DHS-enabled operators have had the "right" to "fire first" ever since Congress gave Jr. the "war powers" after 9/11 (my opinion is that this has been FUBAR since inception).
