Has this hit the MSM yet?

Thoughts?

"The US Air Force has released its new mission statement, which reads
'The mission of the United States Air Force is to deliver sovereign
options for the defense of the United States of America and its global
interests -- to fly and fight in Air, Space, and Cyberspace.' With the
recent rows over US Internet governance, what do you think is the impact
of a US government overtly practicing cyberspace warfare? And what are
the US's legal limitations?"
