Anonymity


The Internet is an odd thing. On the one hand, it appears to provide the perfect refuge to write anonymously about any and all subjects.  On the other hand, it allows one’s information to roam freely in an uncontrollable electronic space.  Both of these qualities seems to be fueling the ire of my government handlers.

I must admit I am confused.  I am aware they were not initially in favor of this blog posting my musings on living amongst earthlings.  However,  I have convinced them in the past that this blog would be a useful “red herring” to get people to doubt its validity.  For the most part, that strategy seems to have worked, but something seems to have changed.  They are very nervous about my “lack of anonymity.”

I have been getting more hits on the blog recently, but they seem of more amused interest than a risk to security, if that is what they are worried about.  They have not asked me to remove the blog yet. Still, they have strongly hinted that my posts should be less frequent and less revealing of the other aliens’ lives.

I suppose they will not be too happy with this post, either, but we shall see what happens.  Something must have changed that I am not aware of.  I am sure to find out soon.
