I really wish I'd checked this site out better before I posted it. Apologies!
Whose site is nerdr anyway? I cannot find a name, or even nickname anywhere.
It's pretty much full of anonymous flak for bitcoin.
Maybe he was bitten by a bitcoin when he was young, or something

it's a bullshit article, nicely walking the line between innuendo and bias.
it ends thusly:
i think they're full of shit.

I don't really care for the http://nerdr.com's tone. Everyone affiliated with Bitcoin is "driven by greed" according to the post. But that's true of any business venture.
As others have mentioned, the search for anything 'bitcoin' related on the site referenced by the 'article' turns up nothing. I agree, the nerdr articles relating to bitcoin are just trollbait. I replied in my usual tone, just so people would realize he's talking out of his ass.

I'm not in the US and use a VPN so good fucking luck
someone from the uscourts.gov domain visited my blog on Jun 8 arriving from http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2632671

nyc.gov
usbr.gov
nasa.gov
state.gov
fcc.gov

Nerdr seems to be consistently posting anti-bitcoin articles.
Let me guess, I should sell all my bitcooin at any price. 
The closest thing that'll ever happen would be MPAA / RIAA sueing someone for selling bootlegs for BTC.
At this stage, a violent attack from a big government like that would put bitcoin in all mainstream TV shows.
It's possible that the more abiding of governments subjects start to run away from the technology, but such publicity would attract those who are not that abiding. I'm talking about this: http://falkvinge.net/2011/06/16/bitcoins-four-drivers-part-one-unlawful-trade/
So that would be shooting on their own feet.
And about the blogger of OP, I think he just wants to provoke bitcoin enthusiasts to see their reactions.

Well wow, it was reported on nerdr with no evidence, TOTALLY TRUE.

Look at the other guy's articles on Bitcoin - there's an obvious bias. You'd think someone with a hatred for Bitcoin and news as juicy as the US court service ramping up it's research efforts about Bitcoin would cite some kind of proof. Absent that proof, the logical conclusion is simply someone who hates the idea of Bitcoin and is making shit up.
On the off-chance the author reads this: post some proof. I don't believe in the libertarian, tax-dodging, protect-my-assets-from-the-gubmint bullshit, so show real proof they're moving to functionally outlaw it and you'll have instantly succeeded in getting at least one Bitcoiner to drop it.

I wonder how this could actually work. Would legislation that affects Bitcoin also affect Facebook's game currency or the Linden Dollar?
I can't imagine that they could rush something through like this
Yeah exactly anyway I dont trade currency I trade 'unique number over internet' how they plan to ban numbers ?? some peopel can call it currency but what is bitcoin from legal point of view??, from technical its only unique number nothing more. ONE BIG CAN OF WORM from legal point of view.I can't imagine that they could rush something through like this

Who said anything about courts? I think the OP was referring to the legislative branch.
The OP says that it's the courts service looking at them. Jump to:
