I wonder if this is what Trump meant to type when he tweeted Covfefe

"The world in the viewfinder | Surreal scenes Wednesday in Washington. A crowd of pro-Trump protesters, galvanized by the outgoing president refusing defeat, entered the Capitol, a symbol of American legislative power. In this historical chaos, a photographer was able to capture a moment of calm and wonder."

Invasion du Capitole américain : quand deux moments historiques se côtoient

Le monde dans le viseur. Scènes surréalistes mercredi à Washington. Une foule de manifestants pro-Trump, galvanisée par le président sortant refusant la défaite, ont pénétré dans le Capitole, symbole du pouvoir législatif américain. Dans ce chaos historique, un photographe a su capter un moment...

I know it's not the most important thing from the Big Takeover article, but I hadn't seen this guy before reading it and I cannot get over his facial expressions:

when the effects of three days drinking and partying start to wear off

Can't claim any credit for it, but this kind of made me laugh: "kinda sad that twitter and fb removed that trump video considering it’s the only way eric trump was ever gonna hear his dad say “we love you, you’re very special”."

It seems the Reddit post I quoted was inaccurate so I'm deleting the quote, but leaving the link for reference.

Doesn't change the tl:dr though. Which is:

Parler

a) required people to upload scans of their driving license if they wanted Parler "citizenship";

b) didn't scrub the metadata from images and videos that were uploaded;

c) didn't actually delete stuff when users deleted their histories (most notably in the aftermath of last week's "insurrection") it just made it invisible to users;

d) was incredibly sloppy about data security.

So:

70 Tb of data was uploaded to open source archives which has no doubt speeded up law enforcement's ability to track them down.

I don't actually do Reddit, but this is an amazing account of how Parler was hacked.

I don't really know if what's being described makes sense, but it doesn't change the tl:dr which is:

a) required people to upload scans of their driving license if they wanted Parler "citizenship";

b) didn't scrub the metadata from images and videos that were uploaded;

c) didn't actually delete stuff when users deleted their histories (most notably in the aftermath of last week's "insurrection") it just made it invisible to users;

That description is rather a mangled version of what actually happened - the mass download and the failure of the authentication protocols are in fact separate things - the download was doable simply because the data structure and associated security was weak (technical term would be pissweak) to the point of non-existence; no admin accounts were needed to be created to access the content.

That's as maybe, but they make it easier to MS Paint spunking cocks over users' profile pics

Thanks ll delete the link

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

looks like a dodgy wordpress seo plugin. But i wouldnt put it past that bunch of weirdos to wait for a news outlet to report it and then deny and winge about fake news media.

[spitfire]

Hahaha.

Yup, post edited to remove the gibberish

Still it's pretty amazing that a site being used by those who really needed high levels of security after so many had been doxed since the Unite the Right demo should be so lax.

I for one support Mr q shaman's protest for organic food. It is after all a central part of making America great again, as trump himself has described in detail on numerous occasion

 

[gosub]

I'm not sure Mr Q Shamen is going to enjoy prison.
