It looks pretty darn real (although I’m not an EE so I can’t tell). It smells
legit as a page... although there are a couple of mysterious things. One, it’s
on a German domain (.de) and second, there are no other pages on the site. In
fact, going to the root gives you a 403 Forbidden warning.
The thing is, I can totally see the US government being involved in logging PC
keystrokes behind its citizens’ backs. And I can also see that putting something
like this on a non-US-based server would be the only “safe” thing. But the trail
there is mysterious... the domain is registered to somebody in Germany, through
a German registrar, through a German ISP whose home page reads “it’s gone!” The
page was originally supposedly copied from http://www.roflcaeks.biz/lol.html
but there’s nothing there, apparently. That domain was registered 6 days ago in
California.
Where did you find this link? The source might also provide clues to its
legitimacy. Despite the runaround, I think it could be legit. Either that, or
it’s disinformation, but Al Qaeda isn’t usually that subtle.
