WTF?

It's a glossary to some other document. There are also entries for "wifi", "chatting" and "cloud computing"

Child pornography: when regular slander just isn't enough to get the job done.

Still though that's how they describe bitcoins?!?!?

It's not innacurate. They could also have described US dollars the same way, but everyone knows what a USD is. It's a GLOSSARY, it's meant to explain to the reader of the document the meaning of words the reader may not recognise, in the context of the document itself. This isn't how the US Government describes Bitcoin, this is how Bitcoin applies in the narrow context of one report on child pornography.

I haven't read the document - but of course - if you want to stop something, and you can't put it on terrorism, then put it on child porn. It's starting to become completely ridiculous and so easy to easy to predict.

I guess child porn or abuse of children did not exist pre-internet, or pre-air-travel or pre-boat or pre-railway travel. Not that it's good in any way whatsoever, but don't blame the technology....

Edit: Well, this was just to explain terminology in regards to child abuse cases, it wasn't an attack on bitcoin as far as I could see.

[Gabi]

It seems now they no more laugh at bitcoin but moved to attack it.

WTF?

Those guys called "governments" doesn't stop to amuse me, every day they release some shit that make me think... WTF! This is a desperate action, from a dying System.

Just /ignore Them. They do not have any future.

A world without Banks and with "the end of state-controlled money" is right on our horizon.

They do not have any means to face us. Because we are a legion... We do not forgive, we do not forget. heheheh...   :-P

Let Them die.

You should burn all your paper dollars immediately as they support criminal activity.  True story.

BTW, that list have good projects!      

Freenet, closed P2P projects...

But, Cloud Computing (storage)  So, now, Amazon EC2, Rackspace, etc, are some kind of bad? Didn't get it...

This is hilarious... They don't have any shame.
