The preliminary hearing for this case was today and police never presented the so-called deepfake to the court.
Because, as I exclusively revealed in April, the cops never even had the video. The lawyer for the alleged deepfake mom has told me that the vaping video was real.
The district attorney in the case against the Pennsylvania mom accused of making deepfakes has now said that the videos in the case many not be deepfakes at all.
Prosecutors, who backtracked on their claims Friday that a Pennsylvania mom created deepfakes to harass her daughter's cheerleading rivals, are still taking the case to trial.
While there is an unconfirmed report of Parler being hacked, the screenshot circulating of a Parler database password is old.
I looked into the database leak in July and confirmed thanks to @WhiskeyNeon that it was for a site not held on the same infrastructure as the main site.
Thread: The debunked claim that servers run by Dominion Voting Systems were seized in Germany is making the rounds again.
So I'm going to explain where this claim originated from and how it devolved into its current incarnation. dailydot.com/debug/us-army-…
The claim appears to have originated in the form of a garbled German screenshot posted to Twitter that claimed the U.S. Army had raided Scytl, a Spanish election technology company, at their offices in Frankfurt.
(Translation on the right)
The screenshot made its way to Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Tx.) several days later, who referenced the tweet during a Zoom call and during an interview on Newsmax.
Gohmert admitted that he didn't actually know whether the tweet was true.
An interesting point brought up by @ZTPetrizzo - The account that tweeted out photos of the Burkman raid was created last month and had zero previous tweets.
Given Burkman and Wohl's tracks record, I'd be a bit skeptical until the FBI confirms the raid. dailydot.com/debug/jack-bur…
A password reset attempt for the Twitter account that first tweeted out the photos of the alleged FBI raid on Jack Burkman shows that the account was created with the email ja*******@g****.***
A Virginia man tells the Daily Beast that he participated in the 'raid' after responding to a Craigslist ad seeking actors to play FBI agents for a television pilot.
In other words, the raid was staged by Burkman and Wohl.
I was able to confirm that some users were seeing his last tweet as being from 2017, while others could see his actual latest tweet from May of this year.
Conspiracy theorists also alleged that the picture of a shoe on Hanks' account was evidence of child trafficking.
I reached out to Twitter multiple times to ask why some users were not seeing 3 years' worth of his tweets while others were.
Twitter is looking into the matter but has yet to reply. It's unclear if this issue was present with any other accounts as well.
Did Anonymous hack the Chicago Police Department's radio to play N.W.A.'s "Fuck Tha Police?"
I looked into the viral claim. There is no evidence anyone claiming affiliation with Anonymous was involved. dailydot.com/debug/anonymou… via @dailydot
