A Swiss tech expert runs a global phone surveillance system for Deep State, and it is a spider's web we never knew, existed.

Let us decode, how it works:

1. Welcome to the world of surveillance contractors, telecom access brokers, and an industry of grey actors with seemingly legitimate businesses. Some are regulated, some are procured by state clients - and some are sold to private actors, providing hackers and criminals alike… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
2. At the center of this global telecom surveillance web is a tech expert and telecom entrepreneur, a former ally of Julian Assange and vocal critic of the security state, now turned surveillance industry enabler.
His name is Andreas Fink.

3. Andreas Fink has built a surveillance apparatus that he has put at the disposal of governments and companies around the world including Israel’s Rayzone Group, a top-tier cyber intelligence company. Fink’s set-up is capable of exploiting loopholes in mobile phone connection… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… https://www.spiegel.de/netz...
4. A computer and telecommunications engineer, Fink is a former payment processor for Wikileaks, an entrepreneur who supports the libertarian Pirate Party but masterminds a global surveillance infrastructure that he has placed at the disposal of governments and companies,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
5. Andreas Fink offers his customers the ability to use a highly customizable interface, called Venotex, to send tracking requests via a roster of phone network access points that he maintains. Venotex was the system seemingly linked to the software used by Team Jorge. Fink… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
6. One of Fink’s systems was seen in the system used by the Israeli hacker-for-hire and disinformation group Team Jorge as part of their operations, which required access to the global cellular network. An international investigation led by underground journalists revealed that… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
7. When underground reporters asked about his role as an access broker exploiting telecom networks, Fink said: “I’m by far not the only kid on the block”. He cited “bigger companies with fewer scruples” including NSO Group, FinFisher, and Hacking Team, and said that “Israel,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
8. Andreas Fink has offered location tracking services to multiple governments and companies, directly and through intermediaries. In Africa, he pitched projects in Mali and the Democratic Republic of Congo and provided technical assistance to a service provider for a government… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
9. Among his current customers is Rayzone Group, a high-end Israeli surveillance company that sells a “remote and undetectable” location tracking tool called Geomatrix. The firm was implicated in the operation to recapture fleeing Emirati princess Latifa al-Maktoum as she… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
10. Fink has also in the past worked with two other Israeli surveillance firms, Verint and Septier, both of which offer location-tracking services to government agencies. These companies tested his systems “but it never came to a viable long-term business."

#Assange #Snowden… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
11. A look at the websites of Rayzone and Septier clearly shows the extent and capability of their offerings and it looks like a Walmart of Surveillance software and tools.

12. Global span of Hire for pay Mobile Surveillance
In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, he demonstrated his surveillance system to intelligence officials. The demo involved him pinpointing the location of an individual who, the officials said, operated an anonymous… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
13. So how this web of mobile spying works?
Central to understanding the Adreas Fink's operation is a list of network access points, called “global titles”. These GTs are not only operated by telephone service providers but also leased by private companies from SMS vendors to… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
14. SS7 and hacking the locations and SMSs details on behalf of espionage clients
There's also evidence of successful SMS interceptions conducted over Finks infrastructure. Fink's systems carried out frequent and sustained attempts to extract information, including location… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
15. How SS7 Attack works to hack SMSs and geolocation:
SS7 attacks are mobile cyber attacks that exploit security vulnerabilities in the SS7 protocol to compromise and intercept voice and SMS communications on a cellular network. Similar to a Man In the Middle attack, SS7 attacks… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
16. Step 1 of SS7 Mobile Network Hacking
S7 attacks exploit the authentication capability of communication protocols running atop the SS7 protocol to eavesdrop on voice and text communications. All a cybercriminal would need to successfully launch an SS7 attack are a computer… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
17. Step 2 of SS7 Mobile Network Hacking

Once connected to an SS7 network, the hacker can target subscribers on the network while fooling the network into thinking the hacker device is actually an MSC/VLR node. When a hacker successfully performs a MitM phishing attack, they… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… https://www.firstpoint-mg.c...
18. Two-factor authentication a common security precaution used by many is one of the targets of SS7 attacks. Two-factor authentication (also known as 2FA) via SMS using SS7 is inherently flawed as these SMS messages are unencrypted and hackers know how to intercept them. With… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
19. Major SS7 Attacks
In 2021 a security analyst saw some unusual activity in Southeast Asia. An attacker tried to access internet accounts belonging to wealthy investors in the country, using a technique to redirect security SMSs to the attacker. Some of these attacks succeeded,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
20. Major SS7 Attacks
In two earlier cases, U.K. GTs registered to Adreas Fink’s bankrupt former company, SMSRelay, were also implicated in account takeover attacks, this time specifically aimed at financial assets of phone users. In 2017 a group of bank customers lost money… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
21. Death delivered at your doorstep through your mobile
in January 2021 Fink leased access to more than a dozen global titles from phone networks in the Pacific Ocean in Vanuatu, Samoa, Tonga, Papua New Guinea and Fiji. The following year, on 21 August, according to confidential… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image

How Indira Gandhi's greed looted Rajput Royals during the emergency days 🧵

History is a great teacher to those who want to learn!!
Today Rajaputs of certain parts are raising the crescendo of dethroning Modi Ji by portraying him as anti-Rajput prime minister, so let's see how Congress treated Rajaputs during emergency!!Image
1. The Love story of Royal Lineage
Indira Devi of Baroda was considered one of the most beautiful women of her time. Born to Sayaji Rao Gaekwad III and his second wife Maharani Chimnabai in 1892, Indira Devi was a prize catch for any of India’s eligible royal bachelors.
Her parents agreed to an alliance with the State of Gwalior – one of India’s premiere royal households – with a 21-gun-salute, the ultimate act of acknowledgement from the British Empire. In 1911, however, when the 18-year-old Indira Devi was attending the Delhi Durbar, she fell head-over-Ferragamo-heels for Prince Jitendra of Cooch Behar. The younger brother of the Maharaja of Cooch Behar, Jitendra was a far cry from the Maharaja of Gwalior, Madho Rao Scindia.
Taking matters into her own hands, Indira then committed the gravest breech of royal protocol when she wrote a letter to Madho Rao Scinida, professing her love for Jitendra and requesting the Maharaja to dissolve their engagement.
Perturbed by their daughter’s brazen flaunting of rules and etiquette, the Maharaja of Baroda tried everything he could, even calling the Prince for a scolding, but to no avail. The couple were ultimately allowed to marry in London, without any member of their family in attendance.
This, only after the Maharaja of Baroda had received a letter from Madho Rao Scindia stating that he understood the situation and would not hold it against the Baroda family.
Once married, Indira Devi and Jitendra moved to Cooch Behar where, within a few months of the wedding, the Maharaja of Cooch Behar passed away, making Jitendra the ruler of the State and elevating Indira Devi to the position of Maharani.
The couple famously sired Gayatri Devi, who would go on to marry the Maharaja of Jaipur, and later become a force in her own right.Image
Image
2. The marriage
In 1940 marriage of Maharani Gayatri Devi (Then Princess of Cooch Bihar Ayesha) was solemnized with Maharaja of Jaipur Sawai Man Singh II. Thus, begun the chapter of history which would be unique and full of intrigue.Image

Nehru and his dystopian Legacy 🧵

Though volumes have been written to expose Nehru's socialist narcist way of thinking but still there are lesser-known truths which we shall explore to know that how much harm a dynasty did to Bharat and Sanatan Dharma!!
Nehru prospered a toxic political (dynastic and undemocratic), economic (socialistic), industrial (inefficient and burdensome public and state sector), agricultural (neglected and starved), geographic (most borders insecure), administrative (incompetent and corrupt babudom), historical
(Marxist and Leftist distortion), educational (elitist, and no universal literacy), and cultural (no pride in Indian heritage) legacy.Image
1. The transition

During the transition of governmental rule in Bharat just before the independence, interim govt was formed on 2nd Sept 1946. Nehru was made to sign a document admitting allegiance to the King of England and he did!!Image
2. The Third Person

Every communication sent from Nehru to the king of England till 26th January 1949 was supposed to be written in using his name as a "Third Person" pronoun as though officially the Union of India, Bharat was an independent dominion in the British Commonwealth of Nations existing between 15 August 1947 and 26 January 1950.Image

How Leftist Historians betrayed the legacy of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar 🧵
🪔
Though Congress portrays Veer Savarkar as the one who betrayed the freedom struggle and did seek clemency from the British Government, we will see the real history of Veer Savarkar's mercy petitions and how a nation betrayed one of its biggest freedom struggle Icons!!
🪔
Here i am trying to present a rational and evidence based argument that Veer Savarkar was true nationalist who sacrificed his life and everything for Sanatan and Bharat.Image
1. Veer Savarkar was born on May 28, 1883 in Bhagur, a city in Maharashtra’s Nashik.
In his teenage, Savarkar formed a youth organization. Known as Mitra Mela, this organization was put into place to bring in national and revolutionary ideas. Image
2. The Mitra Mela was later renamed Abhinav Bharat Society (Young India Society) in 1904. The society grew to include several hundred revolutionaries and political activists with branches in various parts of India, extending to London after Savarkar went to study law. ⁣

In 1930, MK Gandhi was getting ₹100 per month from the British for personal expenses.
At that time, the market price of 10 grams of gold was ₹18!!
The market value of ₹100 of that time is currently around ₹2.88 lakhs today!!
But why were they paying Gandhi?
To help the British crush the real freedom fighters?
It must be remembered that at that time the non-cooperation movement had reached its peak.
Gandhi was aligned with the British. Surely, Bharat did not become independent because of Gandhi and charkhas!!Image
1. It was the same Gandhi who enforced a minimalist life style of Satyagraha and celibacy on all his followers!! Image
2. Doctor Pranjivandas Jagjivandas Mehta

He coined the title "Mahatma" in a private letter written to Gopal Krishna Gokhale in the year 1909.
Gokhale waspolitical mentor of Gandhi and on his insistence Gandhi came back from Africa to India.

Is it Ayurveda vs Big Pharma or is it Baba Ramdev vs Big Pharma? The great debate of Life and Death? Part 2🧵

Let's turn back the pages of history to see how British colonialists used its Physicians to spread their trade and colonial occupation in Bharat for a 250-year sordid reign of loot and plunder worth 45 trillion Pounds with countless rapes and murders!!
Today's West is made on the ashes of yesterday's East!!Image
1. Cultural Copernicanism
We live in an age of cultural Copernicanism (Kochhar
1999). In cosmology the Copernican principle states that the universe has no preferred location or direction. In a similar fashion, cultural Copernicanism asserts that no cultural, geographical or ethnic area can be deemed to be a benchmark to be used to evaluate and judge others. It is in the framework of cultural Copernicanism that concerted efforts are being made in the world of medicine to identify traditional knowledge systems and accord them
the recognition hitherto restricted to the 'mainstream'.
That mainstream today is defined by the orthodox
practices prevalent in western medicine, while systems like the Ayurvedic and the Unani (known in Europe as the Arabic system) are considered peripheral.

2. The Orta of Oriental World - A Crypto Jew who had conversations with Plants

Europe's introduction to Indian plants and drugs and to tropical diseases came from the work of the Portuguese physician Garcia d'Orta (1501 or 1502-1568) who came to India in 1534 and remained there till his death. Orta's parents were Spanish Jews who migrated to Portugal in 1492, when Jews were expelled from Spain. Forced in 1497 to choose between exile and conversion, the family nominally converted to
Christianity. Orta was fortunate to find a patron in Dom Fernao de Sousa, "of a noble family descended from a natural son of King Alfonso III by a very beautiful Moor, daughter of the Cadi of Faro".
Orta studied at the Spanish universities of Salamanca and Alcala de Vide from 1515 to 1525, qualified as a
physician in 1526 and worked as a village doctor from
1526 to 1532. In 1532, thanks to the help of his patrons, he was appointed a lecturer in natural philosophy at the University of Lisbon. He left the job in 1534 to accompany his young patron and friend, Martin Affonso de Sousa, to Goa.
Orta served as physician to the governors of Goa, as
also to the ruler Burham Nizam Shah whose capital was in Ahmadnagar. He had a house and garden with many medicinal herbs at Goa, and in about 1554 he was granted a long lease of part of the island of Bombay, which he sublet. He knew personally all the plants within his reach from which drugs were derived. For the rest he was indefatigable in his enquiries from native physicians, and in his examination of Yogis from the kingdoms of Delhi, and Of traders and others from all parts- "Deccanis, Guzeratis, Bengalis, Cingalese, Moors, Persians, Arabs and Malays". He was assisted in his work by "his intelligent Konkani servant girl Antonia".Image
