The Usual Suspects. The use of Eric Banoun's hacking suite Circles is not as widely publicized but is also used to hunt down dissidents. 2020 report from @citizenlab is excellent. Needs updating/expanding with failed Eitanium play. citizenlab.ca/2020/12/runnin…
Banoun was a player in Reporty/Carbyne which is now flowing into US law enforcements systems as a "Covid Tracker" backed by Peter Thiels Founders Fund forbes.com/sites/denizcam…
A 2018 investigation by Israeli-based Haaretz on the global proliferation and abuse of Israeli spy ware. Terrorism tools gone terribly wrong. Again this was 4 years ago. haaretz.com/israel-news/.p…
Eric Banoun made films as "Rise Up LLC" productions. Director Maria Pulera's name shows up on some interesting documents besides film scripts. variety.com/2018/film/fest…
We digress. Eitanium was a failed play but Carbyne wants to combine permissible phone hacking (you install the software so strangers can take over your cel phone) and drones...for your own security. #OpenThePodBayDoorHal dronelife.com/2021/07/15/dro…
It's much easier to hunt people down when they do all the work for you. We assume there is a level of seurity whenever we hand over our data, location or content. Has anyone ever read User Agreements and tried to modify them? bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
I dont' have numbers for this year but massive corporate data leaks are becoming the norm. Then the data is put up for sale. fortune.com/2021/10/06/dat…
Since the visual scale of data is hard to represent ...this handy infographic can remind you that nothing is private. informationisbeautiful.net/visualizations…
Stolen data is its own business sector. Criminals want to clone your credit card. Ransom attacks and even extortion. I wish they would create some new stock photos for hacking. Its so...70's. But good info in here. pbs.org/newshour/scien…
What if data harvested rather than "hacked can shift your digital identity or silo? Can you create artificial environments, opinions and people using massive data sets built on stolen data to change thinking? Yes Project Rome and Cambridge Analytica theguardian.com/news/2018/mar/…
Here is Project Rome. The election fuckery plan given to Trump by Israeli Joel Zamel, pitched by Erik Prince, paid for by George Nader. Cost? Only $3,210,000 plus media so around $4million. Aug 2016 meeting. April 2016 start date? Hmmm. Cut to the tabloid int.nyt.com/data/documenth…
Daily Mail lays it out nicely. Erik Prince got caught lying by Mehdi Hasan. He got busted by Adam Schiff. UAE and KSA were making it rain stripper-style for Donald. Toss in George Nader paying for politician lap dances and we have a criminal comedy show. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6…
The ultimate hack would be false information, fictional personas and manufactured data to create a fictional world. A world in which the U.S. election had been stolen to divide the nation and weaken the elected leader. A scam that began in April 14, 2020. bbc.com/news/blogs-tre…
Could the ultimate hack be the to insist that real data is actually fake data and then legally discard it? Ensuring a false narrative? Perhaps. The ultimate hack happened right in front of us and we have yet to get to the bottom of it. independent.co.uk/news/world/ame…

Three words, that when put together can only mean bad news "Florida" "ShockJock" and "MattGaetz"
2020: "grand jury is investigating alleged crimes “involving commercial sex acts with adult and minor women, as well as obstruction of justice” and seeks communications, documents, recordings and payments the individual had with Ellicott, Gaetz and Greenberg from Jan 2016 to now"
"The Signal messages were set to disappear after 30 seconds, but Greenberg—as he’d done with vanishing communications between himself and Roger Stone—screenshotted the message." thedailybeast.com/the-shock-jock…

Steve Bannon should really consider doing Bumfight or Homeless Guy Makeover DVDs. Or maybe an Aftershave that blends the pungent traces of stale piss, spilled beer and political outrage into a bold statement of cuckness called "Abstemiousness" washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/…
I've looked worse..but only after being scraped off a Central African dirt floor after a hour of sleep... but is Steve's fabulous Rasputinish dishevelment a carefully styled look or what happens when you drink too much too early? The internet weighs in. inverse.com/article/27285-…
I apologize to the Bumfights guys. They actually clean up better. sdnews.com/view/full_stor… ImageImage

CNN tried to cover Wagner's operations in CAR and investigate reports of abuse. The team which included employee Clarissa Ward became the subject of a Russian investigation trying to smear them. Where have we heard this "fake news" narrative before? vk.com/video-15626490…
It wasn't just being followed, stooged by fake reporters and intimidated it was a sophisticated Russian campaign to make CNN's reporting seem biased or wrong. Who would try to infiltrate, spoof, stooge or discredit main stream media?
In America we have faux journalists arguing with faux journalists about who is the faux-iest. All it takes is a microphone and a monetized YouTube account. But are Russians running disinfo ops inside the media? I suppose we could ask Project Veritas right?

Trailer for a documentary on the war in Bougainville and their independence.
A clip from the Coconut Revolution by Dom Rotheroe and featured the late rebel leader Francis Ona. Easily one of the strangest and most beautiful wars I have been in. Complete with smoking volcanos and kids with slingshots.
The complete doc.

Fascinating thread. American made UAE operated F16s hit launchers. Lots of Allah references, but it comes down to tech.
Not science fiction. These are Zulfiqar (the two bladed sword) missiles heading into one of the most modern cities on earth. Specifically to damage the perception of Abu Dhabi as a safe business and investment center. Intercepted by Patriot batteries.
The Zulfiqar missile is an Iranian solid fuel rocket based on the Fateh-110 SRBM family. Has GPS guided brain only 185 mile range. The missile launchers in the UAE video were hit in al-Jawf governate... 870 miles southwest of Abu Dhabi. thedrive.com/the-war-zone/2…
