Pooters protege - CHEKA mate
by professor rat 24 Nov '20

24 Nov '20

As a side note, around that time (starting ~2010? I dont exactly remember) the russians hired a bunch of western libertarians/pseudo libertarians who cared to criticize their own governments..." You know some libertarians that don't care to critique ' their own govts "? You mean like...total EUNUCHS? Anyway - if you know any more Russian paid 'libertarians' like Mange then you should probably tell us. One of them might be jamesd...or Amir Taaki...or Matt Taibbi...or Chelsea Manning

JEREMY Hammond fans for electronic activism?
by professor rat 24 Nov '20

24 Nov '20

Seeing all those anonymous individuals welcome Jeremy back could indicate a spike of interest in electronic civil disobedience. Its only been 15 or 16 years since Jezza had his Gonzo trip to Vegas, after all. One standout guide I regard as a must-browse is a RAND study of Netwar - its old and creaky but the broad brush strokes are there. https://www.amazon.com.au/Networks-Netwars-Future-Terror-Militancy/dp/08330… Ronfeldt may have even defected lately , though Arquilla remains a cop at heart & definitely needs killing.

"... on the other hand 'we' outside the 'first world' fascist cesspool correctly see the UK and the US as the most despicable fascist cesspools on the planet ..." Are you gonna bite little puppy? Or just keep yapping here for another three years.

Cypherpunk Bill Gates found tortured to death. AB could be my little blocked stream canon today As I run over a chain of commands With a jetpack strapped where the backstab lands if it can Fine, sign of the vibe in the crowd sauce cash When I cut his belly open to see what climbs out That’s quite a bit of guts he can muster up To make a dark horse neigh, “Enough’s enough!” BUTTFACE stalked with a view to a kill https://decrypt.co/49265/ethereum-avalanche-eth-bridge-liquidity

Make it rain, baby girl.
by Robert Hettinga 24 Nov '20

Make it rain, baby girl. Geodesic Culture Robert Hettinga Seafeathers Bay, Anguilla, BWI November 22, 2020 A long-time friend and I have lunch every Saturday. We go sit in a beach bar here -- these days the beaches empty, the views as preternatural as ever -- drink fizzy water, no, really, decrepit diabetics like me like fizzy water, and, as I used to joke when we started this, well, tradition, plot world domination. We talk about business, mostly, current projects in general, making, hacking, and otherwise. Hardware, software, wetware. Guy stuff for geeks. Wetware as in the stuff between your ears. Mind outta the gutter. Perverts. In these days of pandemic-panic-porn-induced incipient global collapse -- both the empty beaches thing in what used to be the kickoff of high tourist season around here, but also what could fairly be called a US electoral fight for the survival of western civilization -- one can say ‘world domination’ with a tinge of anger in one’s voice about the other side, so the joke isn’t very funny anymore. Besides, both of us are way too old for that world domination shit anymore. We’re lucky if we can hobble off to a beach bar, have a chicken caesar for lunch, and get home in one piece. Well, I am, anyway. He seems to be doing better. I need some new knees, among other things, which I’m not likely to get anytime soon here in formerly-libertarian paradise, and short of an unaffordable medical airlift to the States, practically impossible in any case with the quarantine, I’m not going anywhere anytime soon. So, at the moment, my friend is desperately trying to keep his eyes from rolling back into his head. Because he’s driving. I’m trying to explain to him, in as much detail as I can muster as he swerves his not-quite-a-pickup around a pothole, the current state of play in this whole business with the Universal Voter Fraud, and the Soros guy who’s now a life peer, and Chavez standing over the guy with the keyboard changing the numbers on a constitutional referendum giving him absolute dictatorial power, and... Wait, he says, these machines are hooked up the the net?? Well, yeah. I think, anyway... That’s bullshit. I can’t believe that for a minute. Nobody’d be that stupid. Well, anyway, they did a rush software update the night before the election, so, what, FedEx and flash cards? And it’s running on, what, Windows 7? Oh, come on. No, really. Pretty sure... I mean, I’m not even sure Windows 7 had internet sockets in it, or whatever, I’m a Mac guy, bleed in five colors and all that, no, not those five colors. Pervert. But that’s how fun things here in the Year of Our Lord 2020. As John Batchelor, The World’s Last Gentleman, no, really, look at his little videos on Instagram these days, liked to say during the once-and-future GWOT, “In war, the first three reports are wrong.” And we’re only two reports in. Maybe one and a half. My friend and I are old-school cypherpunks, you see. And no, crypto doesn’t mean “cryptocurrency”, it means “strong cryptography”. We even started a conference here on what I called “financial cryptography” a few decades back, so we even get to claim at least passing familiarity, if very dated in my case, and fuzzy at the best of times, with the idea of machine security in the presence of a, cough, global geodesic internetwork. On cypherpunks, back in the day, it was all about spooks, crypto protocols, financial and otherwise, rubber hose attacks, more spooks, actual fucking Rothbardian anarchy, not that statist commie black-block crap that passes for it these days, and, well, world domination. Punks these days give millennialism a bad name. Get off my lawn. So, I’m very prepared to believe Sidney Powell. I just saw a NewsMax clip on YouTube(spit!) where she says she’s gonna kick off the fun in Georgia, and, she says, it’s going to be biblical. Make it rain, baby girl. Make it rain. The fate or Western Civilization is in your hands. No pressure.

State of play with Assmange case
by professor rat 24 Nov '20

24 Nov '20

Background - Mange pled guilty to breaking-and-entering north-americano servers in the 90's Its alleged he TRIED breaking and entering norte-american servers AGAIN the next decade. Since this investigation began more charges have been alleged re-espionage, theft, etc with NSA/ CIA stuff. That just happened recently. It would seem to guarantee a swift and speedy extradition, but, you can probably second-guess the stock market better than any legal system. On the Bradass theft charges I don't think we have a dog in that hunt. Asshead washed his hands of Iraq in 2013. Why shouldn't we wash our hands of him? He waddles like a repeat crim and quacks like one...KABOOM! Better him than us. Now onto the NSA/ CIA stuff. Lots of opportunities to greymail the USG here. I don't see these charges going anywhere. We might pressure him to release them to us - maybe time-stamped / locked like a deadmans switch? Some tactical support might be justified here. On the other hand - what do we care about ANY corpse-media cretin? Hacking tools are highly perishable, I hear. Like opportunistic Aussie con-artists. Caveat lecter - you lie down with dogs... Finally what to make of Mange 2016? I think - for once! - the assclown finally did something revolutionary and cypherpunk! The problem though is attribution is NP hard and there were others ( Russian, Comey, the net ) equally involved. Bit like " Murder on the Orient Express"! It would be very cool - even world historical - to have US POTUS election kingmaker on your resume. But, Julio - you have to WANT it. Yrs in cypherpunk revolt - hit me up on IC when you get out.
