Avoid July 9 'Internet Doomsday'

The problem began when international hackers ran an online

The FBI also recommends visiting DCWG http://www.dcwg.org/ (http://www.dcwg.org/) ,

If all our computers are going to shut down July 9,
one would think CNN & FOX & the WH would be
hawking this crisis day and night.   Have you heard
about this doomsday event?

I heard about it but it is unclear who is directly affected and how IMO.  Seemed like a April Fools Day thing on steroids.

I wouldn't be in the least surprised if it was a .gov false-flag operation.  They want an excuse to shut down the web, perhaps they invented a way that they hope won't be tracked back to them.

I think that coincides with the date that Stymie's "tough sanctions" against Iran kick in .  ::exitstageleft::
