It's likely that Mastodon (the socialist-leaning, pro-Palestine, or anarchist-oriented parts) has a higher ratio of infiltration compared to mainstream platforms, precisely because it's smaller, more focused, and seen as "safer" for radical politics.

@reverseics Just do it like #Google #ProjectZero and tell them straight up in their face:

I was nice once, now I won't! IDGAF what you need to do to fix it. Details will be public in 90 days. Go fuck yourselves!

And basically prepare everything to be ready in precisely to the second 90 days from the moment mail was sent to them.

This is nothing new what @doingfedtime shows here.

Obviously they need to fix that and work towards better security, including to enshure #Tor #Browser doesn't reset it's #SecuritySettings on reboot, because if people made the concious decision to block all #JavaScript then they that should be at least respected!

In jedem Falle sollte mensch niemals und unter keinen Umständen irgendwem seine [echten] Personalien Mitteilen oder gar nen Perso-Foto bzw. Selfie schicken!

  • Es gibt sehr, sehr wenige die wirklich sowas verlangen dürfen [bspw. #Autovermietung] oder gar müssen [siehe #Banken] aber die werden i.d.R. einen persönlich hereinbestellen [bspw.: Autovermietung machts bei Schlüsselübergabe] oder seriöse Lösungen [bspw.: #POSTIDENT] nutzen. Auf jeden Fall wird kein Händler³ im Internet sowas verlangen!

Alles andere führt nur zu #Identitätsdiebstahl und #Identitätsmissbrauch wo entsprechende Opfer dann z.T. als Beschuldigte*r in tausenden Fällen dann gearscht ist...

³[Selbst nicht beim legalen Waffenkauf! Da wird stattdessen ne Kopie der WBK samt Nummer verlangt weil der Kauf wird quasi in Echtzeit gemeldet und ohne passenden Voreintrag im System ist auch kein Erwerb möglich!...]

#opsec is hard when the world is a finely-tuned tracking machine.

"Swedish security service members who shared details of their running and cycling routes on fitness app Strava have been accused of revealing details of the prime minister's location, including his private address."

What blows my mind: the owner *already* split their hoard into neat 10k #BTC wallets back in 2011—years before “address hygiene” or dust-attack talk. That forward-thinking #OPSEC means today’s chain-analysis can’t easily link the full ~80K BTC cache.

@scotty86 @panigrc @finalstaticfox @dansup Obviously, but then you have the problem of either needing to constantly having to maintain and setup new wallets and/or leaving trails for every dipshit who can use a blockchain explorer.

There are exchanges that support fiat <=> #XMR tho.

Obviously that's another evidence of why #KYC IS THE ILLICIT ACTIVITY!...

  • That problem doesn't exist with #Monero as one cannot determine #transactions, #balances or link wallets by observing the #blockchain. Unlike with all those Shitcoins like #Bitcoin or #Ethereum!

  • So even if I had a Monero Wallet and even if you knew the wallet address, you cannot see what's on it or what transactions go in and out.

  • It's even more secure than #SEPA because thanks to #SWIFT & #FATCA the #IRS and #TreasuryDept. have bulk access to these systems and can basically see account balances in real time (when it comes to #US citizens! The rest they can approximate with bulk access to payment providers and intelligence).

So yeah, blame lack of #privacy, #secrecy, and #custody as well as #doxxing in the form of KYC under the false pretense of #AML for the rampant rise of #kidnappings and armed robberies of #shitcoin HODL'ers.

  • Obviously I do condemn such acts of violence as a matter of principle.

The fact that there are automated, idiot-proof tools like #chainalysis that enable statistical tracking and linking of transactions for everything except Monero is the problem.

  • Don't believe that such "AML compliance" tools are unique to the clients of said providers, because it's just connecting dots from public records. No warrant nor insiders nor MLAT needed.

IOW: OFC I'd have to expect getting robbed by organized crime if I were to post evidence of me sleeping on genuine gold bars.

l heard you're supposed to avoid "I love you" to strangers online because it can foster a sense of false intimacy;
it encourages parasocial relationships (which can be exploited for money or grooming of various kinds).
I don't mean it like that, for anyone wondering.

Cont'd: "avoid parasocial feelings")
I say "I love you" to mean:
You, a being who interprets sensory input, generally finds discomfort unpleasant.
I want you to exist as sustainably comfortable as possible.
Your experience matters etc BUT you don't know my name or intentions. Exercise due caution!
