Quote from: oldspice on Oct 20, 2010, 03:37 AMI am a recent college graduate who has applied for entry level positions with the CIA, NSA, and other organizations.  I have no criminal background and I have not recently used illegal drugs.

I have, however, maintained subscriptions to several pornographic websites for the past several years.  The content of these sites is not illegal.

I will mention that I have been in a monogamous relationship for about two years, and that my sexual history, aside from the above, would not raise any red flags.

Will my use of pornography become known to the agencies to which I have applied, and might it lead to my exclusion from employment in government intelligence?

My old PO would say you belong in Sex Offender treatment for objectifying those women in such a way. (i.e. looking at them naked on the internet).

LOL...well, if you're worried about something as "minor" as this, I'm sure you don't have anything to worry about as far as being denied for a clearance.  Usually the people who haven't done anything really bad, worry about minor, minute, things that will have no bearing on their security clearance unless they lie about it.

The issue might not even come up.  And I doubt they would somehow find out anyway.

Almost all men use porn or have viewed it.  If you say you haven't that's a bigger red flag.  Just tell the truth.  The recruiter and investigators have viewed computer porn too.  As long as children aren't involved it's no big deal.  Don't lie, it just makes you anxious and prone to making mistakes.
