Virtual Fence Yields Result

Douglas, Arizona (ROTO REUTERS) There has been a recent controversy of the effectiveness of the Boeing Company erecting a "virtual fence" along 6,000 miles of the U.S. border. Critics have said that surveillance by the government's $2.5 billion Secure Border Initiative Network or SBInet leaves a lot of holes and will do little to reduce illegal immigration.  

Boeing proposes to construct a necklace of 1,800 towers equipped with cameras, sensors and links to sophisticated computers along the nation's vast frontiers with Mexico and Canada.  Boeing proposes to construct a necklace of 1,800 towers equipped with cameras, sensors and links to sophisticated computers along the nation's vast frontiers with Mexico and Canada.

News came today though of a surprising capture that was the result of the new virtual fence technology.  It can be now revealed that a previously unknown terror cell headed by Afghani Bhati Al-Boya has been broken up and their leader detained.

Virtual terrorist Bhati Al-Boya  was detected by the new virtual fence and was prevented from entering the country.  Initial reports are that Bhati Al-Boya is a half-life character that was intent on entering the country illegally and then going to a computer cafe or library to enter the Second Life virtual world and commit acts of terrorism.  

Second Life a huge virtual universe where real world dollars are spent by individuals and organizations  and disruption  to normal play operations can do real monetary damage.  Virtual characters can easily assume false identities known as Avatars that can make finding and arresting virtual characters difficult.

To hold suspected virtual terrorist Bhati Al-Boya a special virtual cell is being made at the Guantanamo Bay detention camp where currently a firewall is being put into place.  These plans are being protested by the Virtual Character Liberties Union (VCLU) who reject the power to detain suspected virtual terrorists indefinitely, without charge, trial or a right to counsel.  Virtual enemy combatants should have access to the courts and the the Bush administration does not have statutory power to detain these virtual individuals.
