Firstly, I apologize for the way that I am going to be posting this time around. I understand it reads more like a grocery list as opposed to a
typical well-written forum post. I just wanted to throw this out there as soon as I could before I lose any of my files. My interests usually lay more
in the future technologies arena but these things seemed safe enough to toss out there as opposed to other things I wish I could share.
In the meantime, I'm posting this to see whether there is interest in these topics.
All the best to you.

www.cio.gov...
What to Expect in 2012

– Future First
• Release Federal Mobility Strategy
(government's "direction" over mobile services to "improve citizen's service") - see "Cyber surveillence"

------------------------
Planned Anonymous "attacks" - .gov websites shutdown on purpose?
note: Speculative*
Attacks on .gov network arrive on time around scheduled system upgrades - false flag/intended upgrades completed while using media to increase fear /
garner political support
After first Anon hack, PR firm failed to update other .gov websites
arstechnica.com...
Fleishman-Hilliard was responsible for the administration and security of the servers, including operating system updates, software installations and
backups, and had set up the servers—but "had chosen not to update their applications," Brubeck said.
Update: a Fleishman-Hilliard spokesperson contacted Ars on February 19, and said the company could not comment on the attack due to a strict
non-disclosure agreement with the FTC, and referred further questions to the agency.

federal web strategy
Federal Mobility Strategy - modern trend studies have shown usage of PCs for a growing number of tasks has drastically dropped.
iPads, Android, iPhone systems are becoming preffered operation systems. Changes must be made to exercise a greater Federal presence
within these systems. "The End of the PC Era" - Source: Asymco

"hovercraft" designs popularized on various Youtube videos)

through cloud cover])
