Ha! Well, what did we expect, that the +/- 50,000 people of those two agencies (FBI & CIA) never surfed the web for random info? Hell, I'm a WikiEditor and I've edited the information on pretty much every employer of mine, place I've lived and book I've read (Dune, especially-- I wrote pretty much the entire Golden Path entry). IT's fun. It would be ESPECIALLY fun if I were famous and could edit things about me. Is it so odd that the FBI and CIA would work on their own entries?

the thing is when these groups removed negative things about themselves and/or their history the wikicommunity quickly rectified the situtation

The CIA cannot even successfully penetrate Wikipedia without tripping the floodlights of the media? To what is the world cumming?
Griffith said he developed WikiScanner "to create minor public relations disasters for companies and organizations I dislike (and) to see what 'interesting organizations' (which I am neutral towards) are up to."
Awesome! Ain't technology wunnerful! :D
