I’m a vague motherfucker and sometimes I just get the feeling if I try to explain my three-quarters baked understanding of how intelligence works in academia and the tech or culture industry in an overtly benign way, I’m going to be tedious due to my lack of expert knowledge ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ like I should learn more first, to avoid being tedious
I said it was about fostering dependence on the cybersecurity community. To what end, I do not kniw. But getting people to cloudflare their sites is great for surveillance. Cybersecurity outlets are intensely political and pro west.
Private security contractors have noted that leftists use the internet archive more than anyone. I have been reading their papers about online extremism. Very bad people
No I think it’s about “context creation” as they call it. Like a protetection racket where payment is made in dependence on certain tools, that is intended to be used later. Good way to popularize leaks themselves
That just smells like an actual false flag operation to me.
It’s not uncommon for hackers to sell cures for problems they cause. This includes law enforcement, which can have broader goals like promoting their own cybersecurity outfits, even just promoting deoendency on HIBP if it’s a fed thing would be useful here, making the joke they left on the page telling people to check out the site itself suspect. The internet archive is a large and beloved outlet for piracy and depaywalling, maybe the security enhancements being billed to them could help the industry bring them to heel a bit. Just speculating.
I have to say that the way they are advertising “HAVE I BEEN PWNED” makes this look like law enforcement selling cures to problems they create. The owner has that CIA front company type CV. It makes my head shudder uncontrollably. 🐙🌕🤕
Did you find an answer to this?
This is entirely possible through Mastodon/Misskey apps but not having it bound to local data would be awesome. Predictive engines are something most people want an ethical alternative for.
