My only concern is that the DoD may be silencing blogs that don't really need to be. And some commnaders have ordered their men to stop altogether. That's just plain wrong and stupid.

I understand the importance of OPSEC, but in a day when you can go to google maps and get detailed, and accurate pictures of every military installation in Afghanistan, and you can get phenomonal intel for free from places like Global Security, I don't really think milblogs are the threat. Monitoring for OPSEC is fine, but I think the avergage service member who is savy enough to be a blogger, is smart enough to know what they should and should not post.

My fear comes from the idea that they may begin to silence people for not agreeing with the administration, and that would be seriously fucked up.
