One-Click-Submission to German terror watchlist-> 5

Submitted by Anonymous Coward on Sunday September 30 2007, @05:03PM

An anonymous reader writes "As the German daily Der Tagesspiegel reported today, the German federal criminal agency has a new strategy to catch terrorists: they put up an informational web page about the terrorist group "militante Gruppe" ("militant group") and now look at their web logs. If someone clicks on that link, his IP address will be investigated and he will be put on the terror watchlist. It would be utter madness of us to ask you to click on THIS LINK to put a billion people on their list so we are not even going to mention the URL. In case you find it, do not click on it! Thank you."

Does a word processing program have a picture of a typewriter that you have to click on in order to type characters? So why the fuck does an MP3 player have to look like a stereo deck?

No, but you do have a keyboard, and the word processor does display everything as though they were physical pages having been typed up on a typewriter.
