"NYU Not Delivering CLG Newsletter Since 3 June"
2014-06-09 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [http://www.legitgov.org/NYU-Not-Delivering-CLG-Newsletter-3-June]:
New York University has apparently decided not to deliver the CLG Newsletter any longer. Odd how this blockade was implemented shortly after CLG included some highly critical news summaries about John Sexton and his international slave labor construction ring [http://www.legitgov.org/Workers-NYUs-Abu-Dhabi-Site-Faced-Harsh-Conditions]. CLG will endeavor to rectify this problem. In the meantime, NYU subscribers have been bcc'd, so that they can receive the newsletter
"More NSAssociates: AT&T, Yahoo not delivering the CLG Newsletter"2014-06-05 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/ATT-Yahoo-not-delivering-CLG-Newsletter]: AT&T, and all of its email services including Yahoo, have stopped delivering the CLG Newsletter as of 1 June 2014. At least NSAssociate Google relegates them to the spam bin. Yahoo won't even deliver them.
"Facebook Impersonation of CLG's 'Lori Legitgov Price'" 2014-04-20 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [http://www.legitgov.org/Facebook-Impersonation-CLGs-Lori-Legitgov-Price]: Here is a screenshot taken 20 April 2014 of an 'imposter account' of my personal profile on Facebook. On Facebook, my personal profile is 'Lori Legitgov Price.' The phony profile (see below) refers to me as a 'smuggler' and 'crime master.' Ironically, Facebook forced to change my original Facebook name, 'Lori Price Legitgov,' for being 'illegitimate.' I then changed it to 'Lori Legitgov Price,' as I was forced to do that. Apparently, impersonation and libel is fine by FaCIAbook - just don't pick a political name that 'offends' Mark Zuckerberg's sensibilities.

[United States Fascism website moderator note: the following screenshots show what is described. Although the moderator's Gmail.com email account has registered emails from CLG as not-spam. Also, it is not unusual for any mainstream email service to relegate the messages sent more than once a day from the same email address to the spam folder, it is noticed by the moderator that CLG messages are, indeed, singled out for removal out of the in-box and placement in the spam folder, more so than the messages from the other subscriptions to news wires, examples of which are seen in the screen-grab of the in-box.]
"Technical proof: Hotmail blocking IP for CLG Newsletter delivery"
2013-12-12 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [http://www.legitgov.org/Technical-proof-Hotmail-blocking-IP-CLG-Newsletter-delivery]: Hotmail did not deliver the CLG Newsletter on Wednesday. To circumvent the problem, I bcc'd Hotmail, MSN, Live, and Outlook subscribers with the missing newsletter. I posted a ticket in the Support Forum of CLG's webhoster, MayFirst. I then learned that the email delivery problems were connected to a block imposed by Hotmail. Here is the technical response, in part:
"Jamie and I [Ross] just walked through the problem and found that Hotmail finally did start blocking the IP address we were using. While we try to get the IP removed, we changed to a different relay postfix-b on Rustin so that at least until they block the new IP address we will be able to send emails to Hotmail addresses."
"And, today's obstacle is: Hotmail did not deliver"
2013-12-11 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [http://www.legitgov.org/Hotmail-did-not-deliver-11-Dec-2013-CLG-Newsletter]: Hotmail -- and Live, MSN, and Outlook -- did not deliver today's CLG Newsletter.

"CLG seeks lawyer to fight Google's censorship"
2013-12-03 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [http://www.legitgov.org/CLG-seeks-lawyer-fight-Googles-censorship]:
Attention CLGers: Any lawyers in the house? *Once again,* NSAssociate Google relegated today's CLG Newsletter to the spam bin, even though every POSSIBLE 'spam' trip-word was REMOVED or edited with asterisks, and I shortened the newsletter so that it would reach everyone! Also, Google has denied, repeatedly, CLG's requests to set up a page on Google+. Odd, every other news group has a page - why can't the CLG? It's tiring to spend hours compiling a newsletter -- only to have Google decide their clients should not read it!
See also: Google adding 'X-Spam-Combo' to CLG Newsletters, so they are considered spam 24 Nov 2013 [https://support.mayfirst.org/ticket/8113].
I have numerous emails from people who have asserted that despite establishing 'whitelist' filters, Google still relegated the CLG Newsletter to their spam bins. Some folks have sent screen shots as evidence, attesting to same. Note: If you do use Gmail, please take these steps to set up a 'whitelist' filter - which might help [https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6579]. Thank you. Contact: lori @ legitgov.org.
Addendum: Here is an email I received from CLG reader Davin on Wednesday:
I too have consistently tried to keep your newsletter from going into the spam folder, I added your address to my address book, set up a filter that would star your letter & set it up so that it wouldn't go into the spam folder BUT IT STILL DOES!!! I would testify for you if some trial needs witnesses, thank you for doing what you're doing. Regards, Davin

"Google adding 'X-Spam-Combo' to CLG Newsletters, so they are considered spam"
[https://support.mayfirst.org/ticket/8113]:
Hi, folks.
Below are examples of Google and Spamhaus teaming up to mark CLG Newsletters as 'spam,' despite diligent efforts to include NO mention of anything to do with drugs, mortgages, and other such terms that trip the activation of possible spam filters.
Please note that I have also amassed numerous screen shots sent to me by folks depicting the CLG Newsletter in their Google spam bins, despite having marked them on previous occasions as NOT spam.
Can anything be done, regarding this censorship?
Thank you,
Lori Price

2013-11-12 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [http://www.legitgov.org/Twitter-deems-CLG-link-Fukushima-story-spammy-and-unsafe]:
On Tuesday, I posted a short summary and link to an item regarding the Fukushima/TEPCO disaster on the CLG website. ($30bn for Fukushima 'clean-up' [http://www.legitgov.org/30bn-Fukushima-clean].) I wanted to share it with my Twitter followers. I accessed, 'Share a link with your followers' via the 'ShareThis' feature. I received the following message: 'Oops!

If you are a CLG subscriber who uses Gmail, please check your spam bins for recent CLG Newsletters. I have amassed a number of emails from CLG readers -- including numerous enclosed webscreen images as proof - who have informed me that they found their CLG Newsletter in their Gmail spam bin. Most of these people have already added clg_news at legitgov.org to their contacts list, and marked the newsletters as email that is 'not spam.' However, NSAssociate Google has a different agenda.

CLG readers, if you want to read the HUGE three-day news compilation sent early Saturday morning, you'll have to reach into your spam bins and move the newsletters to your inboxes.
NSAssociate Google has taken upon itself to continue to censor CLG Newsletters by relegating them to the spam bins, despite REPEATED REQUESTS by readers to mark them as NOT spam. (Also note that Google+ will not permit CLG to have a page.)
If you did not receive this important compilation, please let me know at lori @ legitgov.org and I will forward it to you.

Note that Mark has clg_news @ legitgov.org classified as a 'Friend,' but Google *overrides* that designation and marks the CLG Newsletter as spam. Mark passed this image along, as he has told me that Google continually routes the CLG Newsletter to the spam bin instead of to his inbox.

"Yahoo egroups relegate CLG Newsletter with Bradley Manning verdict to spam bins"
2013-07-30 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/Yahoo-egroups-relegate-CLG-Newsletter-Bradley-Manning-verdict-spam-bins]:
Another day, another obstacle. Yahoo -- aka Yahell -- relegated Tuesday's CLG Newsletter to the spam bins of numerous Yahoo egroups -- even in Yahoo egroups I moderate. Apparently, NSAssociate Yahell doesn't like various topics covered in Tuesday's CLG Newsletter, including: Sandy Hook Officer: 'There were probably two shooters'; Michael Hastings's assassination; Mers virus, and a snippy comment regarding Fort Detrick; 9/11 graffiti in Connecticut; indignities that await Edward Snowden; New Zealand military and US spy agencies collected data on McClatchy reporter; US drones slaughtering more Pakistanis, sub-linked, of course, as I'm not 'allowed' to include the direct link to Press TV or Columbia University will reject the CLG Newsletter outright; genetically engineered sugar beets [fortunately] destroyed in southern Oregon; more BP and Exxon Mobil environmental terrorism; and, of course, the Bradley Manning verdict. Hmm. I wonder what Yahoo found cringe-worthy?
"NSA buddy Google again claims CLG News violates Google's 'names policy'"
2013-07-18 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/Google-Denies-CLGs-Appeal-be-Google]:
Once again, NSAssociate Google has denied CLG's appeal to be on Google+. Every other news organization is permitted to have a Google+ page, under the title of that news organization, such as The New York Times and the Washington Post. I want to know why CLG News cannot have a page on Google+. See also: Google: CLG News 'does not comply with Names Policy' 02 Jul 2013 [www.legitgov.org/Google-CLG-News-does-not-comply-Names-Policy], which includes additional details regarding CLG's first appeal. Is there a lawyer who could donate his/her time to help with this issue? If so, please write: lori @ legitgov.org. Thank you.
"Google: CLG News 'does not comply with Names Policy'"
2013-07-02 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/Google-CLG-News-does-not-comply-Names-Policy]:
NSA buddy Google will not allow CLG News on Google+. After receiving countless promos at from Google to set up a 'Google+' account, I clicked to 'upgrade' to Google+. Google requested I select a different name, even though my Gmail address -- established years ago -- is clgnews at gmail dot com. When I declined to select another name, Google presented the option to 'click to appeal' to use CLG News as the owner for CLG News on Google+. On 28 June, I received an email from Google, which included the following comments.
"After reviewing your appeal, we have determined that your name does not comply with the Google+ Names Policy. We want users to be able to find each other using the name they already use with their friends, family, and coworkers. For most people this is their legal name, or some variant of it, but we recognize that this isn't always the case, and we allow for other common names in Google+ -- specifically, those that represent an individual with an established online identity with a meaningful following."CLG News, in fact, has a HUGE and 'established online identity with a meaningful following,' although NSA buddy Google doesn't 'see' that. Or, maybe they do, and that's the problem...

"AT&T-Yahoo blocking the CLG Newsletter again"
2013-04-14 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/ATT-Yahoo-blocking-CLG-Newsletter-again]:
AT&T/Yahoo is blocking the CLG Newsletter again. This may be connected to the fix of the EarthLink block. The following AT&T-controlled domains did NOT receive today's CLG Newsletter, because AT&T is blocking the mail server of CLG's webhoster, MayFirst: yahoo.com, att.net, ameritech.net, pacbell.net, swbell.net, bellsouth.net, flash.net, prodigy.net, wans.net, sbcglobal.net, nvbell.net, snet.net. This was the subject line: 'Billions of US tax dollars potentially funding Afghan terrorism -report.' [Addendum: Yahoo.com allowed delivery of the newsletter, but on an eight-hour delay.]

Citizens for Legitimate Government has received a response from EarthLink's Executive Relations, regarding our request to remove the block of delivery of the CLG Newsletter that had been imposed in December 2012. See, for example, 'EarthLink blocking CLG Newsletter since 24 December 2012.'
EarthLink's Level A support has informed CLG that the problem has been addressed. "We want to reassure you, we do not block emails based upon political content. We have removed the block on [redacted] (assata.mayfirst.org) and we have also whitelisted this IP address to keep it from being blocked again."
"Hotmail, MSN and Live will no longer deliver the CLG Newsletter"
2013-01-19 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/Hotmail-MSN-and-Live-will-no-longer-deliver-CLG-Newsletter]:
Hotmail, MSN and Live will no longer allow the CLG Newsletter to pass, when sent through CLG's mail server. Hence, I have to bcc all senders after I send the original email, which it time-consuming. Also, this means the thousands of Hotmail, MSN, and Live subscribers receive their news on a delayed basis. CLG's webhoster, MayFirst, has made attempts to remedy the problem.

CLGers, if you are subscribed to the CLG Newsletter roster with an EarthLink.net domain, you likely have not received a recent CLG Newsletter, once again. CLG's webhoster, MayFirst, has posted the following details regarding the block:
"DHS Trolling Web for Sandy Hook Rifle 'Oddities' - CLG Website Logs"
2012-01-07 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/DHS-Trolling-Web-Sandy-Hook-Rifle-Oddities-CLG-Website-Logs]:
CLG website logs frequently reveal fascinating .gov and .mil visitors, such as the CIA, Pentagon, FBI, DIA, and NASA. On Monday, the DHS accessed CLG's news summary, 'Bushmaster rifle used in CT shootings was same weapon used in Washington, D.C. sniper killings in 2002,' posted 16 December 2012. Apparently, the agency is trolling the web with the following keywords/parameters: [http://www.bing.com/search?q=was+a+rifle+used+in+the+conneticut+shootings%3F&src=IE-SearchBox&FORM=IE8SRC].
Here we learn two facts. One, Homeland Security has trouble spelling 'Connecticut.' Two, the DHS also has questions on the Sandy Hook shootings -- as does Citizens for Legitimate Government. Website log entries and IP info are posted below.

"EarthLink blocking CLG Newsletter since 24 December 2012 --Hotmail, AT&T block update"
2013-01-04 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/EarthLink-blocking-CLG-Newsletter-24-December-2012]:
CLGers, if you are subscribed to the CLG Newsletter roster with an EarthLink.net domain, you have not received the CLG Newsletter since -- and possibly before -- 24 December 2012.
CLG's webhoster, MayFirst, has received notification from EarthLink that their block has been removed.
We'll see if that is the case.
Meanwhile, please feel free to contact lori at legitgov.org, if you want the blocked/missed editions forwarded.
On another front, MayFirst was taken steps to circumvent the blocks imposed by Hotmail.com, Live.com, and MSN.com.
Previously, switching the mail server's IP triggered a larger block by AT&T and its domains, including Yahoo.com.
"NSA buddy Google wants me to change my name, declaring 'CLG News' is 'too long' for people to remember"
2012-12-09 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/NSA-buddy-Google-wants-me-change-my-name-declaring-CLG-News-too-long-people-remember]:
On Sunday morning, I went to access a video on YouTube, regarding a DHS antiterror exercise, rehearsing to mow down civilians during a 'zombie apocalypse.' (Yes, that is actually where US tax dollars go.) Prior to hitting 'play,' a screen popped up. Google would not let me access the video unless I changed my Google name - because they asserted that 'CLG News' was too 'long' for people to remember! They want me to use my actual name instead of 'CLG News,' because, they said, 'Lori Price CLG' is shorter than 'CLG News.' Apparently, Google is mathematically-challenged. When I declined the Google 'offer,' I was forced to give a 'reason' for not wishing to change my name. Ok, here it is. NSAciopaths: I'm going to keep 'CLG News.' Go f*ck your surveillance selves, and the microchipped horse you rode in on.

Apparently, Microsoft does not like the CLG. Hotmail.com, Live.com, and MSN.com subscribers did not receive recent editions of the CLG Newsletter. CLG's webhoster, MayFirst, has submitted paperwork to remove the block of CLG's IP. If you use Hotmail, Live, or MSN, please feel free to let me know if you receive your CLG Newsletter again.

2012-11-08 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/ATT-blocking-CLG-Newsletter-again-after-IP-switch-was-made-avoid-RR-block]:
AT&T is blocking the CLG Newsletter after an IP switch was made by CLG's webhoster to avoid the Time Warner Cable (rr.com, roadrunner.com, and adelphia.net) block. AT&T did not deliver the CLG Newsletter early this morning to its domains. If any techie wishes to help me with these ongoing obstacles, which keep me from updating the CLG website with actual news items, please write lori at legitgov dot org. Thank you.
"AT&T Blocking CLG Newsletters, Again"

2012-10-18 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/ATT-Stops-Holding-CLG-Newsletters-Hostage-Releases-Quarantined-Editions]:
AT&T -- including Yahoo.com, att.net, ameritech.net, bellsouth.net, flash.net, nvbell.net, pacbell.net, prodigy.net, sbcglobal.net, snet.net, swbell.net, and wans.net -- was incontrovertibly blocking the server used to disseminate the CLG Newsletter. And so, some back issues may (finally) be released.
Note: This issue has absorbed much of my time and energy over the last few days, which explains why I was unable to respond to email, and/or thank the folks who have donated to CLG. I apologize for that.
Note: If your CLG Newsletter suddenly 'stops' arriving in your inbox, please don't hesitate to let us know about the problem, by writing signup at legitgov.org.
"Gary McKinnon saved from extradition to US on hacking charges; Drone"
2012-10-16 email resend, from "CLG News (@legitgov.org)":
AT&T (and their domains) did not deliver today's newsletter, so here is a resend. I think it was the Brig. Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair story - I forgot to add asterisks in certain words in the summary. Anyway, here is today's newsletter with an update on the Gary McKinnon story. Sorry for the extra email, for those who did actually receive it. --LRP
Gary McKinnon saved from extradition to US on hacking charges 16 Oct 2012 Gary McKinnon, the computer hacker who has been facing extradition to the US for the past decade, has been given a dramatic reprieve by the Home Secretary. The Home Secretary told MPs that medical reports warning the computer hacker would kill himself if sent to the US were sufficient grounds to keep him in the UK. She also announced plans to change extradition rules to allow courts to block extradition attempts if it is in the interests of justice.
"Facebook blocks Press TV advertisements"
2012-09-18 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/Facebook-blocks-Press-TV-advertisements]:
Facebook has blocked Press TV’s advertisements on the social networking website, saying that the Iranian news network is located in a region which is "not eligible to use this feature." Facebook’s risk management department informed Press TV in an email that the social networking website’s security systems had shut down the payments functionality on Press TV’s account. [Note: CLG cannot include direct links to Press TV's news items because filters then block the delivery of the CLG Newsletter when such links are included.]

"Facebook issues 'mental health' warning to CLG editor over posts; 'You're receiving this message because a friend is concerned about something you posted on Facebook'"
2012-09-11 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/Facebook-issues-mental-health-warning-CLG-editor-over-posts-0]:
On Monday, I received a 'substance abuse' warning email from Facebook. The CLG Facebook page has over 4,200 'likes' and frequently includes '9/11 inside job' commentary. A trace of the email header indicates that the email was actually from Facebook. The email is posted below. [Hey, Zuckerberg: I don't need 'Psychology Today.' I need a real investigation into the pre-9/11 put options, why Building 7 fell after the BBC reported its collapse following the command given by 'Lucky' Larry Silverstein to 'pull' it.]
This is not my first tango with Facebook. In February, I was forced to change my profile name [http://www.legitgov.org/Facebook-Disables-CLG-Editors-Account-Name-Claiming-It-Illegitimate].
Facebook has decided that 'Lori Price Legitgov,' the personal Facebook account title of the Editor-in-Chief of Citizens for Legitimate Government, is (suddenly) not 'legitimate' and therefore disabled. Price's Facebook account was established in September 2007 as 'Lori Price Legitgov,' and she never received any notifications or warnings from Facebook regarding the account. The official page for Citizens for Legitimate Government was not affected.
Update: On September 11, Facebook would *not allow me access* until I checked a box on a pop-up to acknowledge their 'substance abuse warning,' purportedly issued due to the 'nature' of my posts. The message was identical to the email I received from Facebook below, with this additional wording: 'I have read the message above,' and a box which had to be checked in order to access my account.

"Facebook Disables CLG Editor's Account Name, Claiming It Is 'Illegitimate'"
2012-02-16 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/Facebook-Disables-CLG-Editors-Account-Name-Claiming-It-Illegitimate]:
'The name you entered was not approved by our system.'
Facebook has decided that 'Lori Price Legitgov,' the personal Facebook account title of the Editor-in-Chief of Citizens for Legitimate Government, is (suddenly) not 'legitimate' and therefore disabled. Price's Facebook account was established in September 2007 as 'Lori Price Legitgov,' and she never received any notifications or warnings from Facebook regarding the account. The official page for Citizens for Legitimate Government [http://www.facebook.com/pages/Citizens-For-Legitimate-Government/93486533659] was not affected.
On 16 February, Lori Price attempted to log on to Facebook and received the following message from Facebook, preventing her from logging in:
[begin excerpt]
Your account has been temporarily suspended because it appears that you have not listed your
real name. As a reminder, Facebook requires all members to provide their real first and last
names. Don't worry -- you'll be able to update your profile with your full, real name or verify
your name in the following steps. [Untrue.] And when you successfully complete this process, your account
will be accessible again. Please also note that Facebook profiles are for individual use only
and cannot be shared or used to represent other entities...
[end excerpt]
Price then re-entered her account name First Name, Lori; Middle Name, Price; last name, Legitgov. Facebook rejected that combination, then one Lori Price had for nearly four and one-half years. Facebook continued to block access for Price, stating:
[begin excerpt]
Inauthentic name -- temporary block
Unfortunately, the name you entered was not approved by our system. Please wait 10 minutes and
then try again.
Make sure you enter your name correctly and that it complies with our formatting guidelines.
Please note that if your next attempt is also unsuccessful, your account may be disabled.
[end excerpt]
Due to Facebook's threat to disable the account entirely, Price entered the following information: First name, Lori; Middle name, Legitgov; Last name, Price - 'Lori Legitgov Price.'
Although this data has been accepted, Facebook has succeeded in forcing Price to change her profile name.
On Thursday, Price attempted to edit her profile in an effort to revert to the original name.
Facebook precluded that change, claiming that Price had changed her name 'too many times.' [!?!]
"NSA Buddy Google Relegating CLG Newsletters to the Spam Bin" 2012-06-12 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/NSA-Buddy-Google-Relegating-CLG-Newsletters-Spam-Bin]:
If you are wondering why you do not receive your CLG Newsletters, and you (unfortunately) have Gmail as your mail client, check your spam bin. Often, CLG subscribers send emails similar to one received Monday from CLG reader Kerry B., which read in part:
[begin excerpt]
I assume this is common, but for the record... First I'd like to thank you for the excellent information you share! I'm writing to report a problem I've had with Gmail and your newsletter ever since I first subscribed. Even though I have marked countless newsletters as "not spam" and added CLG to my contacts multiple times, "random" newsletters will still slip quietly into my spam folder without fail. I'm now in the habit of rummaging through my spam with the sole purpose of catching and rescuing CLG's emails.
Again today after realizing that I haven't seen anything lately from you, I went digging. Sure enough, the update sent earlier today entitled "3,000 U.S. soldiers to serve in Africa next year 11 Jun 2012" had been marked as spam, again, with absolutely no legitimate reason. I'm not sure if these types of occurrences are common or if you are aware of such an issue, but I want you to know that this is happening to me, and it happens often...
[end excerpt]
And so, if you did NOT receive the CLG Newsletter titled, '3,000 U.S. soldiers to serve in Africa next year 11 Jun 2012,' please write [signup (@ legitgov.org] and I will pass it along.
"FBI Agents Approach CLG's Webhoster in Bomb Threat Investigation"
2012-04-12 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/FBI-Agents-Approach-CLGs-Webhoster-Bomb-Threat-Investigation]:
Emphasizing: CLG's webhoster, MayFirst, was approached by two FBI agents, not CLG itself. MayFirst responded, "We will not cooperate with any investigation into the identities, activities or perspectives of any of our members or any of the users of our systems." [Well, I guess that explains the norfolk.gov visit in the CLG logs on Thursday!]
I received the following email Thursday evening, as a member of MayFirst's Support Team [support.mayfirst.org/ticket/5583]:
[begin email]
Reported by [https://id.mayfirst.org/jamie]
Today, at about noon, two agents of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation came to the May First/People Link offices as part of what they said was an investigation of emailed bomb threats being sent to accounts at the University of Pittsburgh.
MFPL Director Jamie McClelland met them at the door and the two agents showed Jamie copies of three such emails. It appears that the emails were being relayed from a server that May First houses. The FBI identified the IP address assigned to the server with the ECN, a progressive Internet provider in Italy. Among its activities, ECN runs an anonymous email server: a server you can use to send email that isn't logged or stored.
The agents asked Jamie questions about these emails. He couldn't answer their questions and still can't. We have no control over that server and no access to it and since it is an anonymous email server there is no record of who is using it. We simply cannot cooperate because we have no information to share.
But there are underlying issues here that transcend the limitations in this situation. Because even if we could cooperate, we wouldn't.
May First considers the use of our Internet resources to make violent threats or carry on campaigns that threaten or facilitate violence to be unacceptable and unworthy of support. Not only does most of our membership oppose that type of activity but its propagation over our servers puts our organization and each of its members in severe jeopardy. This is not the purpose of the Internet.
At the same time, it's the Internet's purpose that drives our unwavering and consistent position on this type of investigation. The Internet was created for free and unfettered communications and any infringement on the privacy, activities or free speech of anyone is in complete contradiction to that.
We will not cooperate with any investigation into the identities, activities or perspectives of any of our members or any of the users of our systems.
At the moment, we have no reason to believe that this investigation will continue in a way that impacts MFPL members. We're sending this to you because we are committed to transparency and full communication with our members and we will continue, the best of our ability, to keep you informed as the case progresses.
We believe that the future of the world and the survival of the human race depend on the open, uninterrupted and unfettered communication among the people of the world. We will strongly resist any attempt by anyone, including governments, to mitigate that kind of communication or to use the systems of communication as an investigative or repressive tool.

"Secret Service visits CLG member, asks about Seize DC"
2011-07-03 by Lori Price from "legitgov.org" [www.legitgov.org/Secret-Service-visits-CLG-member-asks-about-SeizeDC]:
In two-hour session, Secret Service agents ask, 'What do you know about Seize DC?'
Citizens for Legitimate Government readers are aware of the numerous .govs and .mils in the CLG website logs. See "CLG Sunshine Project" [http://www.legitgov.org/CLG-Under-Surveillance]. The US Senate, Secret Service, CIA, Naval Research Laboratory, DHS, DIA, etc., troll the CLG website on a regular basis. Now, apparently, the Feds have started to troll the people in addition to the site. On Friday, a CLG Newsletter subscriber and CLG Facebook friend/Twitter 'follower,' informed CLG that he received a visit from two Secret Service agents at his home.
The Feds' inquiry target, Chad Smith*, sent CLG an email that included the following information.

After receiving a visit from two Secret Service agents and a two-hour interview about "my credible threats against President Obama" the police state is here! I never advocated violence against Bush or Obama so I believe that we have Facebook moles or that Facebook and Twitter are just letting the government have access to any information they wish (without warrants). 4th Amendment? Not anymore! Just keep this in mind going forward.

CLG sought additional details from Chad, who explained that on 01 July, two Secret Service agents arrived at his home, in a suburb** of Connecticut. They asked him about the intentions of CLG's September 10, 2011, protest, Seize DC.
The agents arrived in an unmarked, Chevy Cruze sedan. Chad, a runner, informed me that he had "seen the car before" on other occasions in his neighborhood.
Chad expressed the following.

They did mention 'Seize DC' and FB friend Justin J.* not CLG, you or Dr. [Michael] Rectenwald [legitgov.org/mikerectenwald_writings_101501.html] but obviously they have good background on your organization since they are on the mailing list no doubt...lol. They gave their names and were extremely polite. They were in an unmarked, blue, Chevy Cruze sedan. Nothing like you see on crime shows. (Budget cuts where we need them. Ha ha ha ha!) ...If they come back I'll request business cards. As long as they don't request a formal sit-down in the New Haven office we should be cool.

"They [the Secret Service agents] seemed to know a lot about your Facebook page," Chad told the CLG. Chad said that the agents inquired, "What do you know about Seize DC?"
The Secret Service also asked Chad to provide details of his involvement in the group. Chad replied that "he intended to go to the protest, to seek redress from the government." He added, "As to the name -- Seize DC -- which is great -- violence is not our intent." Chad amplified, "We have no intentions for violence... We're not going there with tanks and grenades."
Additional details were provided of the visit, via email.

Hey Lori-
All the questions were general in nature and just peppering me to see if I knew of anyone that was thinking about protesting with violent acts or who planned on using vandalism as a resource.
I assured them that everyone I knew was planning on PEACEFUL protest and nothing more. They couldn't tell me what I supposedly said about the president to prompt a visit. As I recall I said the same or worse regarding Bush. Just know that the fishing net has been cast and that old Rockwell song 'Somebody's Watching Me' seems a fitting. If they spend all this time watching us, then who the hell is watching Al-CIADUH and the Tea Party? LOL...
[end email]
I asked how the two-hour questioning session ended. Chad said that they "thanked me for my time."
Albeit "polite," Chad hopes that the two-hour questioning session by the Secret Service would be the last.
