The White House has been under fire since it posted a blog on Tuesday that asked supporters to e-mail any "fishy" information seen on the Web or received electronically to flag@whitehouse.gov.

Also from the article.
Quote:
Napolitano was referring to the Privacy Act of 1974, which was passed after the Nixon administration used federal agencies to illegally investigate individuals for political purposes. Enacted after Richard Nixon's resignation in the Watergate scandal, the statute generally prohibits any federal agency from maintaining records on individuals exercising their right to free speech.

If you're disagreeing with the government bill, its called free speech. And the government cannot store that information according to the Privacy Act. But they are also required by law to store the name of any person that emails the Whitehouse for security purposes.
