Ever get the feeling you’re being watched?
Another interesting visitor turns up in our logs: 214.3.91.65, which resolves to the Department of Defense Network Information Center. Go to its homepage and you’ll learn that: “The Defense Information Systems Agency is a combat support agency responsible for planning, developing, fielding, operating, and supporting command, control, communications, and information systems that serve the needs of the President, Vice President, the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Combatant Commanders, and the other Department of Defense (DoD) Components under all conditions of peace and war.”
They will greet you with a cheery “Hello” and list your IP address at the top of the page, just to prove they know who you are. And they inform you that: “Use of this page and all DoD NIC services constitutes consent to monitoring.” See for yourself, if you don’t mind getting on their radar.
