Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

If I was the US government I would backdoor this website and revoke security clearances for everyone with an account.

I had a friend who was joining the Royal Air Force and he was asked during an interview if he was a Warthunder player.

(I wonder if this information on the interview process in itself is classified. Oops.)

Warthunder? Never heard of it. I'm more of a CornCob 3D guy.

who's to say dod hasn't done this already and is using it to spread false information and monitor spies.

From what I understand, almost everything that's been "leaked" on the forums is widely available elsewhere (like wiki leaks), even though it's still classified as confidential or secret by the respective government.
