mLine 169:
Line 169: − − ==Conservapedia FBI Incident== − On July 13, 2007, Conservapedian admnistrators claimed that a user named 'Stevecarson' edited Conservapedia using an automatic 'bot' software package. The next day Conservapedia's owner, Andy Schlafly, claimed that this vandal had been reported to the Cincinnati office of the FBI and was being prosecuted, he discussed his conversation with the FBI officer on the Conservapedia sysop-only forum, and the group continued to discuss the involvement of the FBI as time passed and how they should handle the situation. Even senior sysops wondered how the FBI investigation was going. Shortly thereafter, Schlafly claimed that another user with the name ' Jayjay' had been reported to the FBI for very similar editing. The materials supposedly submitted in both cases were the IP address of the user and the changelogs of Conservapedia. − A Freedom of Information Act submission made to the FBI, however, revealed that no complaint was ever made. As a result, Conservapedia has been mocked by liberal groups and the subject of the incident has been unofficially forbidded from discussion on Conservapedia.
