People who do this should realize that if NSA is actually running such a filter, they are also probably keeping a list of the articles and all of the responses to it. Thus people who reply to such articles may end up on a list that could be used against them. The list of junk keywords is cute, but when it jeopardizes people's professional or personal lives (as such things inevitably do) or the continued existence of open networks people should think carefully before engaging in this sort of baiting. Attitudes at NSA may well need changing, but this is not the appropriate way to do it.
