Who says they have to be a fed at all?
A lot of electronic intelligence action happens at private contractors, I wager.
like Dunvegan Space Systems for example?

One friend of mine suggested that if they really wanted to infiltrate a group like that (largely male and geeky) the best thing to do would be to send in a young female.
The only female here that ever got my attention was the one that showed her vagina to everyone willing enough to send her bitcoins. if government agents were to run tactics like that, I'd consider them part of the movement rather than infiltrators.

... so we are playing spot the spook now?
I thought there were laws that public officials acting in official capacity have to make themselves known when asked ... or is it just a crypto-police state, not a real one?

The idea that an officer or other public official must identify themself if asked is a myth propagated by undercover cops.
At least here in the U.S. cops are allowed to lie to you. That's pretty well known.
As far as "spot the fed", a few years ago at PorcFest there was a guy that just didn't seem to fit in and a few of the folks decided he must be a fed. He got followed around and it seemed to me to be blown out of proportion. The next year there were people walking around with t-shirts that said "I'm a fed" on the front and "Don't you wish it was that easy?" on the back.

The only thing i would expect in this area is some sort of provocation to members who are investigated for any reason to reveal more personal information which could lead to a real identity.
There is no reason for any autorithy to give a statements or comment on anything in here, the only comment id expect is another fbi report on the current state of bitcoin as the last report.

The agency wont care about bitcoin until it becomes large enough to laundry all their cocaine income.
They dont call it the Cocaine Import Agency for nothing.

I was just wondering if you guys could register here at bitcoin and introduce yourselves and tell us why you are here. No need to lurk. We have a strong feeling you are reading these forums.
Moderators, please leave this thread up for a day or two. I just want to see if this thread gets any bites.

Hello, you are correct. We are reading these forums, and many of us have already been registered for quite some time. Many of us are here just to play around with some BTC personally, and a few to monitor the situation. Just kidding, the U.S gov anyway has very little interest in Bitcoins or your play money scams. The people who are saying OH NO! The $10,000 drug market is going to ruin BTC! Eh, no. Why chase people back and forth and waste the energy and resources, when we could just sit at the U.S boarders, and snag over $60 Million in drugs per day? I will say, a lot of Gov employees use Bitcoins, not to launder or anything, just because a large majority of them are techy, and bitcoins are interesting and useful for techy stuff.
Not entirely kidding,

I have a buddy that works for the NSA, but I think he like checks bags at the airport, I could get him to hop on here if you want.
My forum name is what my NSA sid used to be (was military but submitted reports reviewed by NSA personnel). Had TS SCI and worked in a SCIF. It's not that interesting and nobody should really care unless the person is a high level policy maker or can influence them and you won't hear from those people here.
What did you do with your TS SCI? What is SCIF? Feel free to explain the acronyms. TS SCI = Top Secret SCI???
A SCIF is a "Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility", in my case it was an underground compound where military intelligence of all branches went to work alongside contractors.
TS = Top Secret
SCI = Secret Compartmented Information - Been awhile but basically I remember this being explained as an access control system where the information is compartmentalized so that fewer people have access to the big picture. That way likely multiple sources would need to be compromised to get a full top down view of the project or whatever.
Here is a declassified description of my job title and duties: http://usmilitary.about.com/od/airforceenlistedjobs/a/afjob1n2x1.htm
I will say this... it wasn't as exciting as it sounded when I enlisted by a long shot.

Confirmed. This is why you always ask the guy selling you drugs if he is a cop three times, like in the movies.

In the unlikely event that an employee of one of these agencies decided it was time to stop lurking, register, and post in this thread, they wouldn't be able to until after they got out of the newbie area.
If you are really serious, you'll want to move this thread to the newbie forum.
