Ken,
The monitoring does not neccessarily take place in any of the Bethel's. As you know the WTS has many JW lawyers working for them outside of WTS premises.

Has Anyone Got Any Proof That The Society Monitors Apostate Web Sites?

HS,

Absolutely, although it is interesting that in the two instances mentioned by WIS, the PC(s) that visited his site were clearly on WT's internal network.
Now, WT's IT guys are pretty good and would almost certainly have known that a visitor's trail of pages viewed is recorded in web logs. And the last thing they would probably want would be to hand a propoganda coup to 'apostate web sites' by letting them know that they have been visited by WT.
So it would make sense that any monitoring is done, either by Bethelites from PCs using a separate dial-up account, or (as you suggest) by monitors working outside of WT premises.
What would be even more interesting--albeit practically impossible--to learn was whether the visitor to WIS' site was authorised to do so, or was investigating out his own interest. In which case, I wonder what became of the poor guy...

In case the subhuman lowlife gristle that is the management and boards of directors of the Watchower corporations are monitoring this site, my message to them is: GO TO HELL! GO DIRECTLY TO HELL! DO NOT PASS GO! DO NOT COLLECT $200!

How do they know that the scriptures and references are given in full? Because they (monitor), thats how!
See (Kingdom Ministry/2002/page-8) which states, quote:

Internet Web Sites: We have an official Internet Web site: www.watchtower.org. This site is adequate to make information available to the public. There is no need for any individual, committee, or congregation to prepare a Web page about Jehovah?s Witnesses. Some have posted the contents of our publications with all scriptures and references given in full and have even offered copies of convention material on a donation basis. Whether profit is involved or not, the practice of reproducing and distributing publications of Jehovah?s Witnesses in an electronic document is a violation of copyright laws. While some may view this as a service to the brothers, it is not approved and should be discontinued. -

It seems there may be some evidence that some in the Watchtower structure have viewed apostate sites sporadically for specific reasons. But there has been no evidence, so far as I can see, that there is anything apporaching systematic monitoring of this and other apostate outlets.

Nothing whatsoever to do with proof of monitoring
but here is further "proof" of the very nice people at the Borg using wtbts.org to access the not very nice people on satans web;

Sorry, don't have a scanned letter with identifiable paw-prints and dna to substantiate this, but you can't have everything.

Slim:
"anything apporaching systematic monitoring of this and other apostate outlets."
So now we've gone from proving the WT "monitors" apostate sites, to a systematic surveillance program??? Has anyone on this board actually claimed this type of surveillance ?
It sounds like a "Straw man" defense.

And here we have an example of official use of wtbts.org having arranged for local radio transmitting licenses for the conventions. Damn, more use of satans system.
