Typical

Using a horrific incident to target the internet.




The US president told reporters at the White House following a meeting of security officials that Omar Mateen, the American-born gunman who brought terror to Pulse gay club, had been “inspired by various extremist information that was disseminated over the internet”.

[...]

Comey added that he was “highly confident” that Mateen had been radicalized at least in part online. In chorus with Obama he emphasized that there continued to be no evidence, however, of any direct plot, or direction of the shooter, by any foreign group or network.

“There is no clear evidence that he was directed externally,” Obama said.

[...]

“If we have self-radicalized individuals in this country, then they are going to be very difficult to find ahead of time, and, how easy it is for them to find weapons is, in some cases, going to make a difference as to whether they are going to be able to carry out attacks like this,” he said.

There's no evidence for what we're saying, but we want you to believe it anyway. And we need to have more access to your internet activity.
