Its Mid-2008. The Pentagon Finally Gets Around to Defining CyberSpace

May 20, 2008 by PatB | 2 comments

You can only imagine how long this meeting was.  After decades of wrangling, the big brains at the Department of Defense finally got around to defining exactly what is meant by the term “cyberspace.”  This was distributed in an official memorandum at the Pentagon. All I can say is “It’s about time!”

The definition:

I have a copy of the DoD Memorandum here.  It references Presidential directives for Homeland Security and National Security and helpfully clarifies the term for secretaries of the military departments.  And this is why contractors make the big bucks in Washington, DC.

This is why I have almost no faith in the government. The less these people have to do with my life the better.

Ditto; really nothing to add.
