NSA Officers Sometimes Spy On Love Interests 384
Jah-Wren Ryel writes "The latest twist in the NSA coverage sounds like something out of a dime-store romance novel — NSA agents eavesdropping on their current and former girlfriends. Official categories of spying have included SIGINT (signals intelligence) and HUMINT (human intelligence) and now the NSA has added a new category to the lexicon — LOVEINT — which is surely destined to be a popular hashtag now."

No need to worry. US presidents don't lie. Especially not the Nobel Peace prize winning ones. So it's Ok. Because if you can't trust the government... Well then we really are really screwed.

I have never needed to use such drastic measures. Usually a SIGTSTP has been enough.
Hans Rieser found that SIGKILL was the only way to work things out with his wife... Did I go too far? No seriously, sometimes SIGSTOP isn't enough and they try to continue to lurk as zombie processes.

Eh, I was trying to figure out a SIGABRT joke, so I don't think you went too far.
