I think they need to scrub Facebook for ISIS or Jihadi related sites, one in particular, myself and other Veterans pages have reported, FB will not ban https://www.facebook.com/groups/JIHADUSA/

I just saw one named Mahedi Hasan trolling the US Navy Life facebook page. The claimed they were FBI and were asking how many jets the Navy operated. It was cute.

What gets me is this is "memo" is, allegedly, ONLY an internal bulletin for law enforcement. It was leaked to the public, and there weren't any plans to actually inform military units for dissemination via chain of command. If that allegation is true, thanks a lot blue falcons.

I think some in the special ops arena were already quietly looking at their social media sites a couple of months ago. You can only tamp these sorts of warnings down for so long before they begin leaking out.

Yes, because some military personnel profiles in social media isn't private.

Maj Stephen Parsons, PhD, SGM (Join to see) Gentlemen, I think PO1 (Join to see) put it well. We know how what to do, it's just about reminding ourselves and each other to do the things we know we should. I made a few comments on the topic in this discussion:

What measures are you taking in reaction to the recent ISIL threats, and the FBI bulletin (FOUO)? http://abcnews.go.com/International/isis-threat-home-fbi-warns-us-military-social/story?id=27270662 Things to consider: 1. Be informed: Read news, read the FBI Bulletin (if you look for it on official sites you can find it). 2. Remember what you learned on Deployment: head on a swivel, external focus, treat public places like you did in country:...

I wouldn't be surprised if they were already scanning Facebook for key phrases. Intelligence gathering has gotten very sophisticated.

Yes, in time, eventually your Google searches will show up as Amazon ads in your sidebar...
Oh wait, that's Facebook again.
It's disconcerting how much monitoring we consent to for the sake of communicating electronically. Just saying.

Keep your head on a swivel, grease your guns, practice, keep your head down, don't draw fire, and shoot and scoot.

I've scrubbed my FB profile of military info, but still have a lot of pics that I'm not willing to part with. If I suddenly disappear from RP, inquire please.
