Orwell’s Back: Air Force Bans Personnel from Reading News Stories Reporting NSA Scandal
The Air Force’s 624th Operations Center sent an e-mail with a NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) that prohibits them from accessing and reading news stories related to the current National Security Agency snooping controversy on the Air Force’s NIPRNET (Non-Secure Internet Protocol Router Network) systems.

Wow! That is a big wakeup call!
When someone tells me not to do something, I have always asked why. If someone told me to not read something I would automatically read it, maybe twice. I was a service brat and was told not to question authority, which made me question it more. Hopefully this will backfire on this administration with a military that knows that they have been let down by their leaders. When I was in the army and got a bad sunburn I was fined for damaging government property and that was a big wakeup call. I realized I was a slave and they owned me and if I decided to leave I would go to jail. Lets just hope the military has not turned into mostly mindless drones following orders blindly like they have been brain washed into doing.
