This story has me outraged! I can’t believe that a web site would put a “cookie” on my computer!

The National Security Agency’s Internet site has been placing files on visitors’ computers that can track their Web surfing activity despite strict federal rules banning most of them. These files, known as “cookies,” disappeared after a privacy activist complained and The Associated Press made inquiries this week, and agency officials acknowledged Wednesday they had made a mistake. Nonetheless, the issue raises questions about privacy at a spy agency already on the defensive amid reports of a secretive eavesdropping program in the United States.

This is so stupid I don’t even know where to begin. It’s your computer. If you don’t want “cookies” from “big brother” or anyone else, don’t allow them! You control your computer not the NSA.

I hope they don’t log what IP address I’m coming from! What’s next, knowing what pages I visited on their server? This could be bad!

This is an attempt to make a mountain out of a molehill and would not be “news” at all if the media wasn’t trying to pile on the Bush administration.
