The U.S. Department of Homeland Security plans to announce details of a cyberalert system on Wednesday, two days after a virus called MyDoom spread rapidly across the Internet.


Now I'm a conservative so keep that in mind, but why in the world does the government have to screw with everything. I personally think this is a waste of money as the media does a good job making people aware. What are ya'lls thoughts?

Government intervention on the Internet == Bad Idea

The internet has, is, and should be self regulating by the private sector.
