Background Text: The Grapes of Wrath
Content The site proceeds to a page with links to several stories of people of the world of Year Zero, and in a propagandistic way uses them to illustrate the site's main thesis: that there are dire consequences to those who attempt to rebel against the authority in place in the world of Year Zero, in this case, the American government.
Connections:
Neil Czerno
One of the linked stories, entitled "The Slow Slide Into Treason", tells the story of one Neil Czerno who was ultimately executed. In the story, it is mentioned that he started a website named Open Source Resistance, which led to the discovery of this currently active website at www.OpenSourceResistance.net.
Interestingly enough, in the story it mentions that Czerno's wife was diagnosed with cancer, forcing him to turn to the French government for help. The auto-reply to email sent to the address found on the Secure Broadcast Informatics website contains an anonymous e-mail to Francisco about his lack of cooperation with the USBM and mentions his wife having breast cancer. (See the Secure Broadcast Informatics page for the full text of this email.) Add to this the fact that Czerno is a webmaster, and the email from Francisco indicates he is an IT Specialist who handles internet bandwidth for clients, and that they both have a definite advocacy of free speech; while there is no hard evidence at this point they are the same person, the parallels are interesting to note.
