I don't mind, was just wondering if I was missing something here.

I guess not, just found it on an anime news site and said I'll just post it

I mean, to be fair, they have undercover people in any large demonstration, group, rally, etc.

They were in CHAZ/CHOP, in Minneapolis, in Kenosha. They're in the smaller rallies and groups lead by people who are trying to start a movement. They're in militias, big and small. They're certainly going to be in normal large gatherings requiring high security as well, like a political rally. (Especially if any chatter online may indicate to something else being planned)

lego set lmao

What's crazy is that notebook has written, "Bring Assault Rifle" down. Like, any gun enthusiast would either cringe at the use or laugh if asked about 'Assault Rifles'. That's a media blanket term for all things scary looking. "Step to Step to creating Houston Militia"? Really? (Besides step 1 is coming up with a cool name and Punisher rip-off logo and have the local screen printer make a dozen or show XXL shirts.) This entire thing reads like it's fake but some really stupid people really do exist, too.

And if this is real, then it's likely staged. This is the "passport of a hijacker" level of coincidence in regards to how absurd it is if actually real.

N.B. I kept reposting this because I kept getting messages "500 Internal Server Error" and "Invalid CSRF token". Some but not all actually did post. There's something a bit hinky here.

It does the same thing if you post a link to my Invidious install and some other random sites. It's a Postmill thing, and from reading the error logs last time it happened it hinted towards some issue with Ramble / Postmill not being able to fetch a thumbnail from the source. It's been a minute so I'm not sure if the issue originates here or the linked site(s).

If a reviewer gets a special copy of the software from the company, is it really the same as what anybody else gets? I don't know video games, but I'd expect any sane publisher respecting internet commerce ethics to turn off the throttling on the update speed, go light on the surveillance uploads, steer them away from the worst multiplayer idiots on the server, even shut off the Bitcoin mining subroutine! I bet reviewers see games like nobody's ever seen but them, and can't imagine the world isn't happy with the software. Am I wrong?

With all the police at that rally getting pummeled in courts and press, I imagine quite a few of them have become undercover after the fact.

The whole thing is ridiculous - they prosecute random people for going in a building like they were terrorists, while there's no prosecution about how the leadership sabotaged and abandoned the MPD officers - barely a word how it happened. The whole mob there is being used as whipping boys.

He's grateful to have lost both the domain name and the money. A thousand apologies from this wretched slave for making light of the Master!

Such is the state of modern populist heroism.

It's been true a long time. The ideal was an "encyclopedia anyone could edit" with "the sum of all human knowledge". Now it is 1000000 times more important to leave out what needs to be left out, than to include what needs to be included, so they use unlimited, creepy, secret means to track users, which necessitates blocking proxies. We have no idea what kind of tactics they really use, but what leaks from their vague descriptions of "behavioral characteristics" in their so-called "AN/I" board is that they are probably using (at least) browser fingerprinting tactics. But they also supplant with a strong dose of simply banning anything they're not sure about or don't understand.

Every for-profit is corrupt, every non-profit is corrupt, and a cabal of spies rules over them all.

Great, let me know if I can be of any help or need user testing. You'll get new IPv6 addresses with this release so you'll need to resubmit Ramble back to the internal services page on the website.

I don't think that's anime related?

Reminder that no one will ever fight back against any of this.

I'll try to get everything updated this week.

I use old version of Pale Moon and Chromium for websites requiring a newer browser. Both seems ok.

All reviewers or streamers who get pre-release copies should be treated as promotions, not reviews.

That's why Dig Deeper and Spyware Watchdog are better sources. Although, you could use mitmproxy to check browsers listed in the Shadow Wiki, but it doesn't seem to work, at least for me, and I did try Windows 7, Trisquel, Xubuntu, Salix... maybe it actually doesn't work or I just can't install things with pip.

Zero methodology or explanation for how this conclusion was drawn.

ZeroNet seemed to be doing very well two months ago with as many as 20,000 users on the network at once. Then those numbers suddenly began to drop precipitously.

These are the tidbits that would otherwise be lost to history. Movements on anonymous networks might be correlated with suspected spycraft and market manipulations. When the JIDF and bots are occupied, they tend to quickly drop their current targets.

Two months ago, gold started to climb back toward its ten-year high but didn't quite reach it, and also bitcoin began a sharper drop that took it back down to January's all-time high. Somebody with a bullet list of geopolitical shenanigans could probably connect a few more monetary dots.

Or maybe school let out early this year.

Nobody cares when I substantiate poignant points, so I offer them the same courtesy.

That was an eye-opener. Thanks for sharing.

In what nation was DoubleVPN registered? If it’s a business from any of the Nine Eyes nations, they were required by law to have all data recorded from all use by all customers, forever.

It looks that way. We'll just have to see if any court cases cite evidence from this raid. The Pure VPN logging scandal was revealed when a court case cited how the FBI tracked down the defendant.

maybe logs are just a bluff from EuroPol to freak people out.

It depends on the claim. For example, if it's something that reinforces my beliefs, an information that I'm inclined to believe, that maybe I want to believe in, I have to follow up on the source, if I didn't do this I would end up living in a bubble like anyone who gets his news from Facebook. As you write, sometimes the source actually states the opposite of the claim, something like that happened on this website before.

What gets me mad is when I find out, by researching the topic afterwards, that someone I know IRL has told me some bullshit without showing to have any doubt regarding his statements. While after having a discussion I often look up if I was actually wrong, and if I was I usually let the other party know. Don't see what's the point of debating otherwise.

Doesn't sound like they actually took much then. If DoubleVPN accepted anonymous payment methods, the personal information they have is probably fake. The logs are a bit concerning, but from the wording it doesn't sound like IP were logged, if it's only usage statistics, there's not really anything EuroPol can do with it, except for maybe track the people who happens to be connected at the time of the server seizure.
