Feds consider going undercover on social networks

[TC]

I only posted this because it effects all forums on the internet.

The Obama administration has considered sending federal police undercover on social-networking sites, including Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter.

A confidential U.S. Department of Justice presentation (PDF) on social-networking sites made public Tuesday said online undercover work can help agents "communicate with suspects," "gain access to nonpublic info," and "map social relationships."

It only becomes public IF you have your settings to be public OR you're dumb enough to accept people you don't know when you have something to hide.
