The biggest digital forensics investigation by a data protection authority ever undertaken, analyzing many terabytes of US electoral and OCEAN data on servers seized under criminal warrant for violations of the UK Data Protection Act of 1998…appears to have been abandoned.
Last year, the ICO claimed to @CommonsDCMS that analysis of the seized CA/SCL servers was forthcoming. @EmmaLBriant confirms that this effort has been abandoned at the discretion of the Information Commissioner, Elizabeth Denham, without explanation. #TheGreatHack
At great personal risk, we obtained this document by UK court order as instructed by @RaviNa1k. It indicates how ICO struggled to get passwords for seized servers with pressure applied to the administrators of CA/SCL. We believe my lawsuit helped pry open these locked servers.

"Dan Jones said 'Steele did ask me to assist him in communicating with some parties.' When asked who, Jones replied "The Senate Intelligence Committee..." In referring to 'the Committee,' Jones meant the Minority Staff Director, with the consent of the Staff Director." Image
"Dr. Page emailed Reporter #1 while bcc'ing the Defendant, James Wolfe, on May 8, 2017. Each of those two other top SSCI staff addressees, Staff Director Christopher Joyner and Minority Staff Director Michael Casey, were the same people bcc'ed on his email a few days later on." Image

2+ years later Senate Intel points Kilimnik as intelligence agent. In 2018, 'Person A' was key to any collusion case. Report today confirms yes, Russia had its fingers in Trump campaign, & yes, Trump campaign was an incompetent mess. Win-Win for Russia nytimes.com/2018/04/03/opi…
"The problem for the president is that ignorance is not immunity. The problem for America is that ignorance of Russian interference is vulnerability." Russia, Trump, 2016
#ssci Russia report in sum. Yes there was collusion, President Trump probably didn't know (incompetence), probably didn't care (neglect) & he would have if he knew how to (Ukraine Impeachment Hearing up to today)

Senate Intelligence Committee #SSCI report undercuts #RonJohnson investigation.

Broadly, it shows how Russian agents spread disinformation re Ukraine interference in 2016 election, which Johnson-Grassley have lapped up and relied on.

One specific example stands out…
2.

Bipartisan Senate Intelligence report highlights Russian intelligence officer behind scenes of a Financial Times article alleging Ukraine interference.

Johnson-Grassley letter to Barr specifically relied on that Financial Times article.

3. For more on Johnson and Grassley's receiving and using Russian disinformation, @AshaRangappa_ (former FBI counterintelligence agent) and I recently wrote:

#FINCEN Natalie Mayflower Sours-Edwards pleaded guilty. Sentencing sched for 6/9 w/max 5 yrs.

#SSCI #Manafort #Cohen et al

"CC-1"? Know we narrowed down in an old tweet thread somewhere w/ @chiIIum.

Barr's daughter is an atty @ FINCEN now & Jessie Liu is heading there soon.
@chiIIum I also know I've been in/around several threads on her almost 2 yrs ago. She also leaked RU CHI & Iran info as I recall.

Kicks self for not archiving.

Sheryl Sandberg and @jack have just gotten started at #SSCi but a few opening thoughts:
1) important to remember that right now, taking things down is what defines success for social media platforms. that is not a sustainable business model. 2/
2) criticisms of the platforms have been extensive and warranted, but the fact is, not many people left. 3/

Sam Patten's name or backer may not resonate but dig into his work and his employers desire to elect the unelectable "So anyway, the irony was, because it was SCL I assumed it was the bad guys." and the need to create a false enemy like "migrants" parliament.uk/business/commi…
SCL client Andy Wigmore of Leave.eu: "The propaganda machine of the Nazis, for instance – you take away all the hideous horror and that kind of stuff – it was very clever, the way they managed to do what they did." theguardian.com/politics/short…
Cambridge Analytica /SCL CEO Alexander Nix smack talking future client Trump back when they were getting paid $5.8m to pimp Ted Cruz against @realDonaldTrump . In other words, they don't care who they elect or what negative impact they cause. #PayUpSucker

THREAD - What does #HPSCI release of GOP classified memo mean?

In a partisan vote led by Chairman @DevinNunes, the HPSI voted to release a four page classified memo that details alleged surveillance abuses by @FBI & @TheJusticeDept.

washingtonpost.com/world/national…
HPSCI, which along with Senate counterpart (#SSCI), was formed 40 years ago in wake of #ChurchCommittee, #PikeCommittee& #RockefellerCommission, which dealt with a variety of abuses by the Intelligence Community, acted in an unprecedented manner by invoking Rule X, clause 11(f)
(3) That provision actually talks abt preventing disclosure, without consent of each person concerned, of info in possession of HPSCI "that unduly infringes
on the privacy or that violates the constitutional rights of such person."
