Aliens.gov Opens Submissions, and Your Wallet Could Be the First Casualty
The newly launched aliens.gov portal is now accepting reports of unexplained aerial phenomena, but a hidden catch buried in the fine print could have you paying for the government's curiosity. According to consumer watchdogs, the site's terms allow the Department of Defense to collect your personal data and potentially sell it to third-party contractors without your consent. That means every time you upload a fuzzy video of a 'UFO,' you might be signing up for a spam flood or even identity theft. Worse still, experts warn that the rush to file reports could clog the system, leading to wasted taxpayer dollars on processing hoaxes instead of real threats. For the average American, this portal isn't a pathway to the truth—it's a direct line to a drained checking account.
