THREAD: 1/ @wikileaks stated in its #Vault7 release that "the archive appears to have been circulated among former [USG] hackers and contractors". Lately I've been compiling a list of potential subjects including: Hal Martin, Michael Adams, "Carlo", and of course, Joshua Schulte.
2/ For all intents and purposes I believe that this Vault7 group at minimum has some overlap with the @shadowbrokerss (TSB) membership, given Wikileaks claimed to possess the NSA cyberweapons and that Adam Waldman was a US intermediary in both leaks.
3/ Furthermore, Assange was aware of people like Nghia Pho being under investigation for the TSB "theft", even though his role wasn't public until October 2017. Notice he was charged in 2015, but the "theft" was discovered in 2016. wsj.com/articles/russi…nytimes.com/2017/12/01/us/…
4/ Given, the presumed membership overlap, I started looking into Schulte's potential involvement with TSB. Apparently, his first "wikileaks" google was on 8/4/16, but of main interest and just days after the Hal Martin arrest, he started repeatedly searching "what is a mole"...
5/ Schulte also was a free man throughout the entire posting period of TSB and even used the internet against a court order after his September 2017 indictment. This doesn't mean that he was the TSB "mouthpiece", but one cannot rule it out. courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
6/ The Twitter account @LexingtonAl was widely considered to be a member of TSB, and I have surmised the name could be pay homage to FMC Lexington inmate and ShadowCrew member, Albert Gonzalez. Review Lex's Twitter history please 👇
7/ I initially ignored the possibility that Schulte could be Lex, because of his incarceration, but during Lex's brief Twitter career Schulte did have access to ≥3 cellphones, 2 of which were apparently confiscated by October 5, 2018. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
8/ Schulte was moved to a secure housing unit on October 2 to restrict his access to phones, but he was still able to post potentially using @buffer. What isn't clear is when he left the SHU. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
9/ What is clear is that the day Schulte was indicted for the third time, Lex reappeared, wished us a Happy Halloween, and then changed his profile pic to CCI.
10/ CCI refers to Center for Cyber Intelligence, where Schulte was an Operational Support officer coding Brutal Kangaroo. Now, there is no smoking gun that Schulte was involved with TSB, but there is a lot of ammo lying around...
11/ My instinct is that Wikileaks's "former U.S. government hackers and contractors" are Hal, Michael, Joshua, and potentially Maksym Popov, and one or more of them are TSB. Review my previous threads if it pleases thee...
Easter Egg: Schulte's Samsung phone had 2048 on it while he was in jail. This is 1 of the 24 "Fine Dining" potential decoy apps, was Schulte hacking while in prison? 🤭
EE2: Schulte having to wait until midnight to tweet because he was in prison is funny to me.
Big Tech - the invisible h& behind societal destruction Guest article by @LibsOwner
1/11 The internet & social media have become the main & almost only communication medium in our society. Even those who still get their information from TV inadvertently rely on the internet, since TV journalists use the internet & social media to garner their information. The internet, however, has fallen under the control of 7 companies: Google, Microsoft, Meta, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, & Twitter (until EM). These seven companies are heavily tied to the Democrat party collude among themselves, distorting communication & even manipulating our perception of reality.
2/11 The Obama administration hand-picked the companies that have now become #BigTech,(1) , in part by creating thousands of government accounts on $FB, YouTube, LinkedIn, & Twitter, thus endorsing them.
3/11 It also signed agreements with those companies on almost the same terms as ordinary users. (2) It did not do that with Murdoch-owned MySpace or politically balanced tech companies.
@CMstudmuffin and I hit some trees, which is very understandable at Watson. This tree hit was brought to you by my Team G Platinum HD Devilhawk. Greg counted up for a count down 🤔
