Ah, so it turns out that it was World of Warcraft and not City of Heroes that has gone to the Americans.... Does this mean that the NSA is full of jerk hackers?

I bet some agent at some point used the excuse of tracking terrorists for him playing WoW during work hours and it kind of snowballed from there.

....uhhh.....whuh??

Really, I doubt seriously that Al-Qaida members would go *near* some decadent American game. It's *possible*, I suppose, as a medium that could be used for communication, but really? Don't see it. XD

I'd have to agree with enya_lightworke and some agent used it as an excuse so as not to get in trouble for playing a video game at work.

Giving members of the intelligence community virtually unlimited funding and effectively no oversight? What could possibly go wrong?
