There are more than plenty of people from United who monitor (note spelling) of Untied.com.
The TSA cherishes its PR department (it's the only thing that holds them up). I am extremely confident that they look at this and other (TSA Screener) sites as well, whether in an official or unofficial capacity.

But the issue came up in the context of whether Flyertalk has DHS "minders". I think the fact that Flyertalk may be subject to (hypothetical) data mining by government contractors (or others) doesn't rise to the level of "minders", because actually doing something with the data being mined here strikes me as ridiculously difficult.
And, self-importance aside, how many people on Flyertalk arise to the level of someone on Hoover's "enemies" list?
