Mia Farrow fears that spies are targeting her blog

According to the following news report, Mia Farrow fears that spies are targeting her blog and are tipping off the British government about her actions. Reportedly, someone has been faxing the contents of Ms Farrow's site to members of the House of Commons in England, the Daily Star quoted the American actress as saying in her latest updates. I find such a reaction strange. So what if someone faxed the contents of any site to anyone.

From Thaindian News 12 July 2009:
Mia Farrow warns online spies trying to derail her efforts to help Sudan refugees
London, July 12 (ANI): Actress and activist Mia Farrow has revealed that an online spy is threatening to overturn her efforts to help refugees in Sudan, and has claimed that this won’t budge her from standing for the cause.

The ‘Rosemary’s Baby’ star has been working hard to highlight the plight of those effected by civil war in the country’s Darfur region, and encourage governments to do more to help them.

In fact, the actress had recently fasted to raise awareness of the cause and even runs a daily blog showing pictures as well as up-to-date news on the situation in the Sudan.

And now Mia fears that spies are targeting her blog and are tipping off the British government about her actions.

“I have been notified today that someone has been faxing the contents of this site to members of the House of Commons in England.” the Daily Star quoted the American actress as saying in her latest updates.

She added: “I hope whoever is doing this will cease as this sort of harassment is counterproductive to all we are hoping to accomplish for the people of Darfur… Shame on you.” (ANI)
I wonder why Ms Farrow construes the faxing of contents of websites as being a sort of harassment. Here is a copy of some notes at miafarrow.org
PLEASE STOP

Once again I implore whoever is repeatedly faxing the entire contents of this site to the Members of Parliament in England to cease immediately. The harassment and alienation of persons in positions of leadership is counterproductive to our efforts to alleviate the very real suffering of the people of Darfur. In addition, British taxpayers are being burdened with the cost of the extraordinary amounts of wasted paper and ink.

Please don't fax

I have been notified today that someone has been faxing the contents of this site to members of the House of Commons in England. I hope whoever is doing this will cease as this sort of harassment is counterproductive to all we are hoping to accomplish for the people of Darfur.
