Folks this really is the silliest story I have seen so far.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7274377.stmThe US government has begun a project to develop ways to spot terrorists who are using virtual worlds.
In the report, which talked about the data mining efforts undertaken by the ODNI, Reynard was described as: "a seedling effort to study the emerging phenomenon of social (particularly terrorist) dynamics in virtual worlds and large-scale online games and their implications for the intelligence community
Once these are identified, Reynard will "then apply the lessons learned to determine the feasibility of automatically detecting suspicious behavior and actions in the virtual world".
If the intelligence community want to play world of warcraft etc why dont they pay for it themselves instead of putting the bill on the taxpayers for their activities, even the most stupid of terrorists can send an email to plot events :roll:
