Making bad guys nervous
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-07/wikileaks-hold-press-conference-vault-7-release-8am-eastern


As with any any Intel, we have to look at it to determine if it is another play to get us to look another way. Wikileaks has been pretty solid about their information though.

This level of CIA hacking and the lack of over-sight makes it hard to determine what is the truth and what isn't, when it comes to current events. I also know that these cyber weapons can and will be used by the billionaires to keep their money and strangle hold on what they have. If the CIA can recruit these hackers, you better believe that those with billions at their disposal can as well.

Case and point, Aubrey McClendon's jeep just randomly crashing, killing him.

I'm not a fan of conspiracy stuff, but after reading the original article, I immediately thought about his death.

The world is a crazy place right now. Its so hard to discern the truth from propaganda.

I would love to hear what you all think about this.

It shouldn't really surprise anyone that one of most effective tools employed by any good hacker is to make it look like someone else did it.
 
When many of us first seen, drive by wire an power by wire coupled with the fact no one could tell us what the extra "Boxes" were for or did, eyebrows were raised. We dug into the prints an located all cradle to grave points an none of it passed muster until we thought, out of the box. Then many things fell into place. When electrical steering assist came out many said, not no but hell no. Smart phones are just smart for those controlling them also. All cell phones can be powered up remotely an some will transmit 1's an 0's for 30 seconds w/o the battery installed do to the super-caps in them.
 
look up stuxnet. shit will blow your mind. We've reached the age where anything is possible.
 
I knew it was bad, but I didn't realize it was this bad. This is scary as shit. These abilities, in the connected world we live in is ultimate control. If you control the information you control everything. There is no way to get truth unless you were present, and then you can just be silenced or made to look crazy. Not good

I'm sure all the alphabet bureaucracies are scrambling for justifying their existence now that an outsider committed to trimming back waste is in charge. Our intelligence agencies got as big as they did due to the cold war. Now that the cold war is over, all they are interested in now is preserving their outdated trade by digging up and/or fabricating dirt on whomever they see is a threat.

Bureacracies are like taxes. Once one is established, it never goes away.
 
As usual, the same stuff many of us have been warning people about for years including "accidents" in your car.... nobody believes you... then some young hipster looking guy with a cool name hiding out in Russia says it and all of the sudden people act so shocked.....

There is a reason that those in the know who have something worth knowing, know better than to put the knowing anywhere near something electronic or electrical.
 
The thing that really sucks is that its indicated that the CIA has lost control of the programs and they are out there now for other players to utilize.

I think to myself "Okay Obam releases information data that is held by one department and makes it accessible to 16 agencies resulting in less ability to account for access"

Now we have powerful programs that allow your blender to be converted into a spy device and there is plausible deniability across the board because the tools are now accessible to anyone with a budget and knowledge.

So who benefits from this? Interesting Obam waters down accountability in his final days and than "Oops!" - we released hackware that allows spying anywhere.

Really sucky thing - just reading latest issue of Leatherneck yesterday and they were promoting a change in the USMC that has units moving from bulky, multi corded, battery eating, ass aching, secure comm gear and adopting smart phones. Wait one on that.

On the other hand, who hasn't known this is happening. Zuckerfucks computer has been photographed with tape over the camera lens, and you guys don't have your lens covered to prevent recording your fap sessions when perusing porn?

Still in light of a weaponoized IRS, jailing an Egyptian scapegoat, the James Rosen surveillance, is this what we want our government doing in the USA?

I remember something about "Security/Liberty. Trading the latter for the former and getting neither" Seems relevant, man those old guys of the past were smart.

Trump must have known his phone was hacked ( from his appointee CIA Director Mike Pompeo) that Obama was playing golf while the CIA was ripping NSA hacks for their own - only to make public. GUESS TRUMP KNEW HIS PHONE WAS HACKED BY THE CIA

Tuesday’s documents purported to be from the CIA’s “Embedded Development Branch” discuss techniques for injecting malicious code into computers protected by the personal security products of leading international anti-virus companies. They describe ways to trick anti-virus products from companies including Russia-based Kaspersky Lab, Romania-based BitDefender, Dutch-based AVG Technologies, F-Secure of Finland and Rising Antivirus, a Chinese company.

Tuesday’s disclosure left anxious consumers who use the products with little recourse, since repairing the software vulnerabilities in ways that might block the tools’ effectiveness is the responsibility of leading technology companies. The revelations threatened to upend confidence in an Obama-era government program, the Vulnerability Equities Process, under which federal agencies warn technology companies about weaknesses in their software so they can be quickly fixed.

Is anybody really all that surprised?
 
So, regarding the antivirus companies and their packages.... for those of us customers who pay for "more than basic" protection, is it time for a class-action suit?

Secondly, is this "all the more" reason to go to Linux and Ubuntu?

WikiLeaks has alleged that the CIA looked into vehicle interference methods that could potentially enable it to assassinate people without detection.

According to the whistle-blowing organisation, the CIA explored the tactic in October 2014.

It hasn’t included any more details about the alleged practice.

WikiLeaks included the claim in its release announcing ‘Vault 7’, a huge batch of documents, which Julian Assange claims to account for the CIA’s “entire hacking capacity”.

“As of October 2014 the CIA was also looking at infecting the vehicle control systems used by modern cars and trucks,” reads a passage in the release.

“The purpose of such control is not specified, but it would permit the CIA to engage in nearly undetectable assassinations.”

The CIA has also been accused of using malware and hacking tools to turn TVs into covert microphones and remotely break into smartphones.

The latter, according to WikiLeaks, allowed it to bypass encryption on a number of popular messaging apps, including WhatsApp.

WikiLeaks describes Vault 7 as “the largest intelligence publication in history” and says that the initial batch of 8,761 files is just the first in a series of releases.
 
What blows my mind is that if you go to a site like Reddit, many of the people over there are at best apathetic, or at worst completely ok with government intrusion of this caliber. Some are mad, but it appears that many progressives have swallowed the koolaid so badly that they either blame trump or play partisan politics in the comments sections.

I fucking swear, if the shock troops were coming to round up reddit, those fucks would break out in an argument as to 1- whose fault it was, and 2- what color blue the troops' uniforms were. Joining together would never cross their minds, all the way to gas chambers.
 
Anything you see in the big subreddits is bought and paid for, literally. There are companies you can pay to post positive comments for whatever you want, upvotes, downvotes, etc. Hillary's campaign paid Correct The Record (now called something else) to do exactly this. It's not even a secret anymore.

It should also be mentioned reddit lost it's 'Safe Harbor' status when their CEO admitted to editing comments in a way that was untraceable (their systems cannot guarantee nonrepudiation). Basically, reddit is now directly liable for anything posted on their site whereas most forums are protected from legal action provided they take reasonable measures to stop/take down illegal activity once it's been identified.

The only thing reddit is good for is small, niche subreddits and gonewild.
 
I remember well, when the "Patriot Act" was passed.
I was still on active duty. I was alarmed at the cavalier attitude of so many that swore an oath to defend the constitution.
I got a bunch of "well, if you're not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about" and other such drivel.
They didn't give one shit about the 4th amendment.
I wonder how those folks feel now. Interestingly, they were staunch conservatives and argued with me that the gov't would never overstep their authority.

What really amazes me, being a child of the late 60's and 70's, is that during THAT era, the anti-gov't types were the hippies and left leaning folks. The VERY same folks that now insist the gov't should be involved in your life everyday, making your decisions for you.
 
That is b/c those hippies and left leaning folks were really communists.

I think the aging of the 60s era hippy culture is a great thing. To the vets and good Americans of that time I apologize for feeling that way.

I think this is "the last gasp", "the agonal breathing", "the final load" for Bill Ayres, John Kerry, Bill and Hillary and the rest of their ilk. They will die soon and unless they succeed in this final struggle their little lefty Utopia will not have been achieved. The younger useless idiots that currently follow the hard core ideologues will not be as committed.

The young muscle they use now are really anarchists that will tear shit up just for the sake of tearing shit up.

Waking up to read Soros and Ayres obituary will be a very special day.

Their death won’t change a thing. The damage has already been done.


If you really believe that their death will put an end to it all, I encourage that you look into the Tavistock Institute of Human Relations and how even now that all of those founders have died - everything they pushed for has mushroomed.



ETA - I am not sure everyone understands, it is not that there is the element of people that exists in a temporal period that sought an advantage and were able to gain the upper hand for this moment in time. No - it is a mindset of a core group that has ALWAYS sought to gain the upper hand for their clan. The tools and techniques employed are merely what is available at that point in history.

A movie that I fuckin love(and would love to hear your opinion about it V1ctory) is Body of Lies. Leonardo Dicaprio is a badass CIA case officer in Iraq and Russell Crowe is his handler. Fuckin awesome movie, one of my favorites. IMO the intro absolutely hits it out the park as far as the GWOT strategy:
https://youtu.be/LXaHbJhKWLc
 
I'll try to check it out when I get a chance, it looks decent. I don't know much about the CIA, other than the one spook I worked with, who swore he was just a security contractor. Security contractors who are supposed to be in charge of a group of local afghans doing static gate guard don't leave the FOB in the middle of the night with their own 100% afghan team and return with bad guys flex cuffed. lol

So I don't know what my opinion on it will bring to the table.

Figured you're way closer to the action than anyone else I could ask. And that you might have some experience with real spooks and what they're really doing in action, 13 Hours made them all look like Ivy League fag nancies haha I'm sure they got quite a few real ass kickers on the payroll tho..
That sounds like the dude you encountered had a pretty badass job tho lol fwiw from what I've read (Maverick Experiment by Drew Berquist - pseudonym for a real BTDT CIA contractor meat eater), the CIA uses a ton a "contractors" for the frontline shit - ie instead of being a bonafide agent you'll just sign on for a contract for that specific deployment (s).. I guess kinda somewhat similar to the GRS contractors shown in 13 Hours tho obviously different jobs. But anyway yeah anyone that might know a bit feel free to chime in, as far as CIA agents closest to the action. Obviously a pretty closed door topic haha.. sorry for going off topic V1ctory just figured I'd throw that movie out there as a awesome one to watch. How the bad guys have kinda figured if you're fighting a enemy from the "future" then throw away all the electronics. And when the bad guys do that then it's the solid HUMINT that ends up making the difference..
 
He wouldn't tell us anything about himself, he was all small talk and never got into anything personal. He was a killer for sure and a real pro.

From my understanding the CIA recruits from all of the special operations groups for their door kicking stuff, but anything beyond what I've read in books and the small amount I've seen would be mere speculation and out of my lane.

How about his Afghan team? Like were they ANA that he just grabbed up once he got to the FOB? Or did they seem like a bit more specialized outfit specifically selected for the task at hand? Thanks a bunch for letting me bend your ear sir always a pleasure!
 
The guards were local, but had ties to the Arbakai. I'm not exactly sure who they were but I would bet good money they were Arbakai. We worked with them a bit with our ODA guys. They were all killers.

Say sir, you ever thought about joining the CIA? Cant imagine some of the stuff they have access to, that'd be friggin awesome. What'd the spook you talked to look like? Was he Caucasian? Or moreso someone who "fits in" a bit better in SW Asia?

Also, you gotten to fondle a Remington MSR yet? If so.. opinions? IIRC you got to shoot the M2010 right? You liked it yeah?? Sorry for the derail.. if you wanna take it to PM thats cool with me, always a pleasure sir thanks for responding!
 
He looked like 90% of contractors in country, bearded white dudes. Only difference is that he didn't talk about how much money he was making and about how dumb we were for still being in the military when we could be making that contractor cash. In fact he didn't talk about himself or anything specific at all.

Yes we used the 2010's extensively. Loved them but we still needed more range than it could provide. Humping the 107's in the mountains isn't fun, but having the extra range was worth it.

Would you have chosen (maybe a lighter one) a .50 over .338 for the ranges yall were encountering? Did yall have access to .50 BMG match ammo ie 750gr AMAX? Or was it all mil spec and if so what was your first choice in ammo?
Just another thing Im wondering, whats your favorite bolt rifle now, currently?
Thank you sir my apologies for keeping this thread going with off topic questions..
