at least the nazis are dumb
no, we’re dumb….
about an active search for a convicted attempted murderer seemingly marked for deportation
most of the people they’ve been hunting have no criminal record or just minor offenses: this was likely leaked on purpose to further the narrative that they’re going after violent criminals only….
Can we take a second and appreciate the person who got these messages and took them to the media? Putting myself in their shoes, I’d be scared shitless and you can easily see how it might make you a target. Good on you random citizen, I appreciate you.
I want to know how difficult it will be for them to look back at their texts, extract the phone number, and backtrace it to the owner. Because I don't think it will be very difficult.
It’s incredibly easy, in fact there’s already a website where you can do it yourself. Put in a phone number, address, or name, and you’ll be amazed and disturbed by how much information can be connected to you. https://www.truepeoplesearch.com/
Exactly. This citizen’s identity is not a secret to the people in the convo. It’s a brave move and I respect the hell out of it.
Yeah, I'd say they should only have shared it with the news if the news also named and identified them clearly every time the photos are shared. Corruption dies in sunlight. The dangerous ones already know, might as well hang a lantern on any attempts at retaliation.
Gotta make one wonder how often this happens
And it wasn't even Signal, an actually encrypted platform this time.
It was SMS & MMS. As in, the known to be very low security, non-encrypted protocols used for basic texting.
Funny the article starts with "The texts were sent to a group called “Mass Text” "
Well, duh, that's how a group MMS is represented. There is no concept of chat group names in MMS.
This shit is really pissing me off! When do I get an invite to these group chats? I feel so left out right now.
I just wanna shitpost to the fedbois group chat.
Just start trauma dumping while they’re talking about arresting some grandma or some shit.
But were they clear on opsec?
I suppose the phrase "Do not do opsec." is clear at least.
whoever they were going after probably didn't even wear a suit.
omg like there are really, really easy ways to prevent operational security leaks like this.
Good thing they’re too dumb to know that. They ain’t called Y’all Queada for nothing!
I doubt half these cunts can even tie their own shoes.
So Hegseth is in this too, eh?
Sounds like someone pulled a Mike Waltz
👊🇺🇸🔥
I want off Mr. Bones’ wild ride.
I'm not sure if I could fuck up this hard if I tried.
