it would be "America's Army".......
Users have breached Army-funded game's security holes; they're told, "We can track you down." Producers of the America's Army game have warned hackers, "The Army is angry, and we're coming for you".
America's Army, funded by the US Army (and, ultimately, taxpayer dollars), features realistic and deadly combat in a variety of military settings. While it's free for public use, some players have taken advantage of security holes in the software; specific hacks have not been disclosed. The game has some 4.5 million registered users.
Executive producer Phil DeLuca said cheaters were "breaking the End-User License Agreement and misusing Army property and US Army computer programs and equipment."
DeLuca threatened hackers, saying, "We know who you are, and can track down where you play from," according to Information Week. "The Army has partners that deal with cyber crime as a matter of course. These include not just various Army IT departments, but also the Department of Justice, the Secret Service, and the Federal Bureau of Investigations
*Wether or not these people are actually able to access any "sensetive' information, it still would be the last place I would want to try out my hacking skillz.
