Does it sound like something off of Star Wars? Well, it’s not! I hate to bust the bubble of the trekkies reading this, but it’s actually something that the US government is forming in order to gain more control online.

As if they didn’t have enough control already! Well, I guess we do need to protect ourselves online, but let’s just hope that this doesn’t end up being an opportunity for the government to overstep their boundaries.

These Cyberspace Officers now have wings that they can earn.

Well, they have always had a badge to wear, but the US Air Force just released a new version of this. In order to earn these Cyberspace wings, they have to be officers and successfully complete the “X-Course.”

One thing that we know is that earning these wings isn’t the easiest badge of honor that a soldier can earn. In fact, it’s just as difficult to earn as some of the most prestigous honors ever passed out to the men and women who server our country.

Have you had a year of Cyberspace experience as a soldier?

Well, then you have the opportunity to move up a rank in the Air Force. That is of course if you can fulfill all of the requirements that our government has set forth for what is known as Cyberspace Officers.

How this could go bad…

Well, it’s really not too hard to figure out since the government has been showing how bad they want to control the internet. Whether it’s strict advertising laws set forth for internet marketers or if it’s new requirements set forth for IT companies.

The government could simply attempt to take over what we once looked at as a way to get away from all of the bureaucracy that we are forced to live with each and every single day.

To top it off, they will have a small city of CyberSpace officers.

Around 3,000 if you want to get into number. They will be infiltrating the internet as we know it, and we probably won’t even know who they are. The militiary is sure good at going incognito on us.

Then again, it could be one of the bets thing to ever happen to us.

After all, more and more people are turning to the internet to get their dirty work done. Including terrorists and those who could seriously cripple our country. Well folks, having the militiary on our side in this case might just be a good thing after all.
