Interesting. The University of AL, and Cambridge University, participated in this investigation. 🤔 Peter Levashov, Russian National Who Operated Kelihos Botnet Pleads Guilty to Fraud, Conspiracy, Computer Crime and Identity Theft Offenses justice.gov/opa/pr/russian…
Curiouser. Cambridge Analytica and University of Ole Miss (MS):
What if they were using Southen universities in the US - like they did at Cambridge University in UK - to fool around with people's data?

Recall, Nigel Farage's Russia conspiracy buddy, is a director at Eldon Insurance in UK - they used the insurance firm to get their hands on people's data ; )
"A case involving the British data firm Cambridge Analytica is before a county judge in the state of MS, where reps of a British insurance co and University of MS have testified under oath that no private data of British citizens was ever transferred to the American university."

"The entity in question is an Eldon subsidiary, Big Data Dolphins Ltd., which the company says aims to use data for the legitimate purpose of improving insurance sales."

"It was MS Republican Gov. Phil Bryant who ultimately connected Eldon w/the university after cultivating relationships w/Banks, pro-Brexit campaigner Nigel Farage and others...." 🚩
"The lease, filed publicly for the first time Tues, shows the state economic development agency controlled by Bryant [HE WAS THERE WHEN FARAGE MET TRUMP. SO WAS SESSIONS] agreed to give Eldon and the university $100,000 to help complete office space for Big Data Dolphins."

@WendySiegelman did you already know that Gov Bryant directed economic development $$$ to the Big Data Dolphins project at University of MS? 🧐
@WendySiegelman Then in 7/18, the lawsuit was dismissed:

@WendySiegelman “The order reflects the truth,” Kidd said. “No personal data has been transferred to Mississippi. The companies’ intent was to work with students about insurance. We have a politically motivated and factually-meritless lawsuit.”
Smells bad, bad, bad.
Smells bad, bad, bad.
@WendySiegelman Remember Lord Ashcroft - the pro-Trump British pollster, and Gov Phil Bryant pic'd above?
Sure, it was just about "insurance"...
