I often look at open forums like this and wonder if an intelligence organisation is attached or do they have a link to one.
Such forums establish themselves with "some" description of who they are and what they hope to achieve... but I can never find any real deep reason for their existance.
Names and e-mail addresses constantly flow through these sites and many personal attitudes and affiliations get viewed by who knows who.
What do you think?
Is the Forum clean?
Is the boss brave enough to permit such a question?

Hi Gibo
Forums always have been useful for intelligence rganisations and usually an intelligence organisation has few registered members in a forum at the same time.

You think they would pay someone to read this?

Well, the boss had the courage. I like that. I looked at Wikianswers and it worried me. Once in New York, it moved to Jerusalem with Mossad just down the road somewhere. If the right questions were put on their site, just maybe, some of the right answers might come back to much wanted questions. It could also be a notice board for communications one agent to another. Everybody wants knowledge these days and after the National Security Agency's echelon satellite system...anything is possible.
Thanks for your bit of information P_Dox. I dont know if ASIO is fully connected to do much observation but they may. Ive grown up seeing them as a bit backward, poorly funded, distracted with diplomats, etc.
They might freedriver. They have to be seen doing things at least to themselves.
I wonder what the CIA is doing on Australian soil and how much ASIO helps them to spy on us.

I imagine that somebody would be reading all this. Try putting any profanity onto your post and see what happens.

It's also a good way of 'staying in touch' with what people are thinking. Especially on social and political issues.

And isn't this what this Forum is all about - Social and political issues?

I just hope that Noel Pearson is invited so as to bring some common sense and authentic concern for the indigenous issue.
