Matt-

If you're interested in having me do an op-ed this month, I happen to
have some info on the firm that created Trapwire - Abraxas - and it's
leading role in developing persona management for the U.S. and CENTCOM
(as noted on our wiki page for Cubic, which now owns Abraxas:
http://wiki.echelon2.org/wiki/Cubic_Corporation). I'd also like to say
a few things about how some of the media, particularly this Atlantic
editor (http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2012/02/stratfor-is-a-joke-and-so-is-wikileaks-for-taking-it-seriously/253681/),
counter-factually and incompetently attacked Wikileaks and the group
of Anons I work with who pulled off the Stratfor heist, for allegedly
making a big deal out of something that was unimportant (even though
the first of the 5.2 e-mails that Wikileaks had already released
already demonstrated several major scandals even at the time it was
written). Let me know if you're interested.
