Description
Adds some random subversive words in a widget in your sidebar that’s designed to create more work for our friends in illegal government domestic surveillance.
This plugin is inspired by the old M-X spook program that comes with Emacs.
Code is flagrantly borrowed from the original Hello Dolly plugin. I also borrowed a spook.lines file from http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~tom7/spook/ because it had a huge number of subversive words in it.
Installation
- Put the mpspook.php file in your wp-content/plugins/ directory.
- Activate the plugin in the Plugins menu in WordPress’s admin page.
- Go to Appearance, go to Widgets, you’ll see Meta-Press Spook in your widgets list. Add it to your sidebar and enjoy!
Frequently Asked Questions
Won’t this get me in trouble with three-letter agencies?
Maybe. They’re not telling.
Isn’t the NSA smart enough to filter out Meta-Press Spook’s keyword spamming with their data-mining systems?
Probably. But they’re not telling. Just smile and wave at the nice NSA agent!
