Yes, as I've noted before, you can pull all the "re-issued" credentials, then check for any preceding ID.

But that's just a start.

It's art up for review in opinions, of course I'm going to gravitate towards something shared with interest, when he didn't say a word for 2 days! Why was he there? #opendata #smartcities #bigdata #ai
I went through every single video he released in hip hop to understand him not saying a word. Easy to work out, he's a very bitter man who has absorbed all his parents immigrant opinions at home #opendata #smartcities #bigdata #ai
His parents are not middle class anywhere & neither is he #opendata #smartcities #bigdata #ai

@ericgarland @20committee @JamesFourM @Medium @FBI @NSAGov @DHSgov @GCHQ @LincolnsBible @USTreasury @BarackObama @NATO @DARPA Again, there was a warning about more evidence being released in tandem with egregious attacks on Kremlin's critics.

Given the targeting of Brennan, we’ve hit another tipping point.

@ericgarland @20committee @JamesFourM @Medium @FBI @NSAGov @DHSgov @GCHQ @LincolnsBible @USTreasury @BarackObama @NATO @DARPA I was planning to drop more evidence sources, but I don't think everyone yet realizes the security-clearance fiasco is a giant evidence-reaping machine *in* *itself.*

@ericgarland @20committee So, .@ericgarland gets a new kind of botnet targeting, & .@JamesFourM runs into issues w/his article on @Medium?

There was a warning about harassment & the countering release of evidence on the conspiracy.
.@FBI .@NSAGov .@DHSgov .@GCHQ
@ericgarland @20committee @JamesFourM @Medium @FBI @NSAGov @DHSgov @GCHQ The warning: Any egregious harassment of Kremlin critics could release or expedite yet *another* major evidence source against the conspiracy.

While unpleasant, I think these two each warrant something modest… yet formidable.

& apropos.
.@FBI .@NSAGov .@DHSgov .@GCHQ
@ericgarland @20committee @JamesFourM @Medium @FBI @NSAGov @DHSgov @GCHQ So, Eric you brought up the agencies rating investments recently, as well as AIG, stock markets, etc.

What, you might ask, is so deadly about global finance & the conspiracy? Beyond the obvious flows of money & influence?

#BigData #ICU #sepsis research I wish some1 would do

Optimal Duration of Time-Limited Trials in Critically Ill Patients

"If they are going to respond to this, we should see a response by ..."

What are median + 95th percentile for responses to common life-saving therapies?
I feel like we "know" this for lots of small things
- Lasix should make 'em pee within 20 minutes
- PEEP improves oxygenation in 20 minutes
- uroseptic shock should break within 24 hour
There are some scattered superb research projects:
- optimal durations of SBTs
- optimal time to neuroprognostication s/p anoxic injury
- Blood cultures will turn positive for MRSA w/i 48 hours if they are going to

In a massive shock to literally no-one, the #REF2021 draft impact case study template is almost exactly the same as in 2014, with the exception of a few additional boxes at the outset and *drum roll* it can be 5 pages in length.
So.. for everyone who decided to create their own REF2021 planning template rather than adapting the 2014 one, a large 👎
Also a very narrow definition of a 'continued' case study in the #REF2021 guidance. My feeling is that many social science cases we assumed would be continuations are nothing of the sort under these rules.

@ericgarland @MingGao26 @YouTube Maybe I should clarify a few points. Nothing the .@FBI, .@NSAGov, .@DHSgov, @thespybrief aren't aware of already.

But for Russian operatives approaching the point of no return, why you *want* a deal w/#Mueller.
@ericgarland @MingGao26 @YouTube @FBI @NSAGov @DHSgov @thespybrief Briefly, as I've said before, the US can impose a total lockdown of any aggressor's economy, but the worst part is we can lift that total sanction on *everything* for a mere pittance - a virtual gift, even.

For every intel operative & leader involved in this assault.
@ericgarland @MingGao26 @YouTube @FBI @NSAGov @DHSgov @thespybrief If you're thinking, "Wait, we'd never be able to execute an attack like this again if they turn us in" you may have missed what a fiasco it is already.

@patribotics @MarinaGipps I keep thinking I should whip up a list of other things .@FBI .@NSAGov .@DHSgov .@GCHQ could use in a #BigData search to pull any remaining deep-cover spies.

Yes, you can pull all the "re-issued" credentials, then check for any preceding ID.
@patribotics @MarinaGipps @FBI @NSAGov @DHSgov @GCHQ That's an obvious thing .@FBI .@NSAGov .@DHSgov .@GCHQ could do, given the supposed tendency of deep-cover operatives to request "re-issuing" of a "lost" ID that never existed in the first place.

Then there are obvious markers, like the pensions @LouiseMensch mentions above.
@patribotics @MarinaGipps @FBI @NSAGov @DHSgov @GCHQ @LouiseMensch Or just anyone caught up in the .@FBI .@NSAGov .@DHSgov .@GCHQ investigation.

Kremlin number trolls based in the West.

Or anyone showing on markers from #cryptocurrencies to @ericgarland's files on media subversion.

@lauferlaw @ninaandtito Remember...

1. Everything @thespybrief has been teaching us about Venona and deep-cover spies.

cc: @ericgarland @counterchekist
@lauferlaw @ninaandtito @thespybrief @ericgarland @counterchekist 2. If you were taking down cell after cell of Russian assets engaged in conventional criminal activity, you could simply reap harvest after harvest along with all the ordinary criminals, & defer espionage prosecution.
@lauferlaw @ninaandtito @thespybrief @ericgarland @counterchekist 3. If you had already broken their secure communications, say, by expelling "official cover" spies who could act as secure go-betweens w/known credentials & breaking all means of encryption, etc, then it becomes very difficult to warn them about the jaws closing.

Obviously this immediately got added to my reading list #infosec #threatintel
Well, off to the races. I'm starting to read through The Perfect Weapon. I'll share my train of thought as it comes up. Sadly, because I'm doing it as an audiobook the snippets I want to quote may not be available online
Includes a reference to the Atlanta ransomware attack among state-linked attacks. I've never seen it framed as state-sponsored, but it provides a good case study for what such an attack on state or municipal governments might look like

Just remember - as I'm sure you do - that Flynn had flipped and was actively cooperating for *months* before it was announced publicly.

That was enough of a warning shot.

The more people secretly cooperating, and legally bound to do their utmost, the better.
So many are waiting for a Great Figure to pronounce Final Judgement upon All the Guilty.

Nation humbling nation, alliance crushing alliance.

What's ironic is the individual workings of real-world justice are more precise and more formidable.
*None* of the conspirators bear each other any real loyalty.

They have been bought or blackmailed to begin with, bound by fear of discovery after that.

But they're self-centered & quite willing to turn on the others.

1) It dawned on me w the last #Q post dropped overnight. It's a new phase: something wonderful happening in our little world, #FollowTheWhiteRabbit.

#QAnon #MAGA #Crumbs #TheGreatAwakening #QAnon #InternetBillofRights #DeepStateinPanic #WeThePeople #TheStormIsHere @POTUS #IBOR
2) #Q posted a link to a show called "The Opposition w/ Jordan Klepper" in which our little secret was given the #leftist treatment, whereby we're ridiculed heavily, and all our work labelled "the sum of all conspiracy theories. It was framed in the theme of the film #TheMatrix.
3) Watch it. For anyone that considers this demoralizing, do not! It's brilliant! Not only did we get a bunch of potential new eyes for being #RedPilled, but #QAnon messages were shown, and #TheStorm mentioned.

1/6 Data and the Quest for Truth: A short cartoon talking about the value of data in establishing truth. First, distinguish between matters of opinion and matters of fact.

#datascience #scientificmethod #machinelearning

2/6 You can have a preference and that’s cool. You like one thing. I like another. We run into problems when we argue about verifiable facts. Watch out for #confirmationbias

3/6 Ignoring evidence can impact people around you… and that’s bad. We live in a #BigData in which everything is quantified. To solve our problems, we need to become data-literate.

The Dutch didn't just get the whole hack on video, they got personal information on 420,000+ Hansa users.

When I say you can track #cryptocurrency - you can *literally* search your evidence for the number string of a #bitcoin wallet.

You can *Google* it.
wired.com/story/hansa-du…
Even if you're more cautious now, it's easy to track past transactions.

But even local cops can search a computers files for numerical strings of interest.

Now ask yourself what the @FBI & @NSAGov can do.
wired.com/story/bitcoin-…
When @NeonaziWallets can run an automated feed showing the daily bitcoin activities of white supremacists, imagine what the Federal law enforcement & counterintelligence who have known about this for at least almost 6 months could do with their data.

The Dutch Hansa takeover.
"They obtained at least some data on 420,000 users, including at least 10,000 home addresses, which they've turned over to Europol to be distributed to other police agencies..."

#Cryptocurrency is readily admissible evidence re: a host of felonies. But no one may have stated how much more it can do or how easily. Until now.

.@ericgarland .@counterchekist .@911CORLEBRA777 @20committee @thespybrief @patribotics @gametheorytoday .@FBI .@NSAGov @GCHQ
1st, some basics. #Cryptocurrencies create a permanent, online record of each transaction, arguably the most easily tracked exchanges on Earth. But law enforcement shut down multiple #Darknet auction sites even before that was common knowledge. .@FBI .@NSAGov
Those sites had tens of thousands of users. And money launderers, Russian intelligence, terrorists & ordinary criminals have moved into it en masse. The world’s worst method for making nefarious transactions. .@FBI .@NSAGov

So Dutch intelligence recorded the entire Russian hack of the US election, & has the hackers & their visitors *on* *video.*

Things just got exciting.
.@CNN .@ABC .@CBS .@NBCNews .@MSNBC
In other words, it’s even more beyond question that Russia hacked the election – we literally have them on camera doing it. We have their faces, & the faces of those directly overseeing them.

.@ABC has done a piece on this revelation, but I thought I’d bring it to the attention of .@CNN .@CBS .@NBCNews .@MSNBC. And I wanted to sum up the other devastating revelations tearing this would-be coup, & its perpetrators, apart.

*This* is the kind of data analysis this subversion investigation demands - particularly with regards to the media. I'm hoping FinCEN, IRS, #cryptocurrencies & the FBI uncover enough obvious treason to unravel the rest, but showing these correlations should be devastating.
Because the media element can operate more independently of a clear command structure than paid assets, paid trolls, campaign/Administration figures, botnets, etc, there's a risk of letting a deadly threat remain active.
Desperate, minimally competent people can be mobilized for peanuts. Hopefully the publications paying for these articles have revealing bank transfers, #cryptocurrency deposits or what have you, but this is one industry where unwritten favors can serve as payment.
