The Marine Corps has banned social networking sites including, Twitter, Facebook and MySpace because they create a larger attack and exploitation window, expose unnecessary information to adversaries and provide an easy conduit for information leakage that puts security and personnel at extra risk. And yes, the DOD is considering a ban on social networks from all government computers.
A report from Veronis Suhler says that, for the first time since they started tracking media consumption, American consumers spent more time with purchased media than with ad-supported media. They don’t see this trend reversing, and they don’t see the advertising sector returning to growth until 2011.
