Top Tech News : Pentagon Bans Removable Drives on Classified Network

"To avoid more documents going to WikiLeaks, the Pentagon has banned the use of removable drives on its classified SIPRNet. The Pentagon said data transfers "routinely occur," but didn't disable removable media due to logistics problems. The Pentagon previously banned removable drives in 2008, but lifted that order early this year." ~ Barry Levine

Well now, what do we actually say to this. In my mind I would have to state that I feel this should have stayed that way before. As a security student and computer user, I understand the need for removable media. But we are in the technological age and most people are relatively unintelligent. I am not saying most people are stupid, that is something different in my mind.
I am mainly of the opinion that in many cases, when bad things happen in a struggle ( I am using a light word here), I do not want to know about the civilian casualties. I remember reading about the world wars, and how much different the media was back then. In my opinion, if you feel that your 5 year old child should not be seeing it, it should not be broadcast. And I know there are some parents that feel that everything they watch their children should be able to as well. To you I say, shame on you.
If we really are a society of people who think that the video games and music are what make us violent, then we must also hold our news media accountable for it as well. There are many violent images there, in many cases more. I am a gamer also, and like many addicted to WoW ( if you don't know, you aren't one). In this game what do you do, you run around doing errands for NPCs ( Non-Player Characters, for those that may not actually know). That's about it. But do I feel that this causes me to be violent, no, I think it is more of a way for me to vent. Some of us need to find good ways to vent our anger, or at least better. Some have their FPS (first-person shooter), and some have puzzle games, both can be helpful.
I am going to end here, as I didn't really want to get into political stuff here.
