Pentagon to fight Leaks with ‘Fog of Disinformation’

Fog Computing, the Pentagon’s new strategy, baits would-be leakers with decoy documents that outs them when leaked.

5 Ways US National Security Policies Will Erode Civil Liberties in 2012

‘By now, you’d think we’d be entering the end of the 9/11 era. One war over in the Greater Middle East, another hurtling disastrously to its end, and the threat of al-Qaeda so diminished that it should hardly move the needle on the national worry meter. You might think, in fact, that the moment had arrived to turn the American gaze back to first principles: the Constitution and its protections of rights and liberties.’

As President Obama himself said, after the near-doubling of military spending during the Bush era, the Guidance will slow the growth of military spending, “but…it will still grow:, in fact by 4% in the coming year.”’
