if you want it to live forever, we'd need to put it somewhere we have a webhost

disastertrident is my goto

this

I was just thinking we'd have to pay hosting anyway if we leave it up in perpetuity.

I've spent more in gas fielding, I have no problem assisting in funding,

What about tumblr?

but not $12 a mo hosting

I dont know it

Maybe a blogspot

How about MySpace? 😂

yeah google offers pretty easy hosting too

What's the difference between an anonymous website and an anonymous G+ profile?

I think the right thing to do is define loose parameters for each job, assign jobs to people we trust to do them, and then have everyone with related jobs talk to each other.

lol

what are the jobs again?

someone needs to get those images into usable format

crop down and remove any metadata

G+ is a personal space. You pay attention to the identity of the person who is talking to you. If that person is obviously, intentionally anonymous, it feels suspicious. It's about feel.


Websites are expected to be anonymous. You read a website, you consume data, you don't think about who is talking to you.

So do we just want an intro blurb like "On 17 October 2017, some information about Resistance TOS-violating practices was revealed to Enlightened agents. Among this information was a collection of screenshots of Resistance Slack channels that employ comm-scraping for several reasons, including, but not limited to:
- Guardian portal lookup requests by agent
- Deployment of mods on portals
- etc, etc"
?

And from there we provide the list of res names involved

job 1: Establish platform. Must be anonymous, persistent and collaborative
job 2: Information architecture. Determine what needs to be on the page
job 3: write words that go in the word boxes

True. Here's an informational website. All the supporting documentation is right here. Enjoy.

Noting vanguards and Niantic employees

jobs 2 and 3 could combine. All 3 jobs could combine. But we're on a clock and we have a lot of smart people who are good at things and we should get mileage out of them.

Website for that reason is the best choice. Above g+ Tumblr etc.

I'm going to benevolently dictate that we have to release no later than Friday morning, regardless of WB's wishes.

which means that if we're going to alert Krug, that happens Thursday morning

I'm ok with this

so, by noon eastern tomorrow we need publisher roles (set up space, architect information, write content) assigned. If that hasn't happened, then we fall back to something easier than one person can do.

I trust everyone here to do anything they say they're going to do, so if you want any of those jobs, go ahead and claim

if multiple people want things, we'll just collaborate. website will be a spinoff, informed by the peanut gallery

we need a working prototype by Thursday night

Friday is the day on which people bury their bad news for a reason. Harder to get eyeballs. Unless you push at midnight and catch Europe in the morning.

clock is clock

I think you go thursday

everyone will be onboard

WB has been eager

I don't think we can be ready by then

maybe thursday night, if we work very hard

we turned screengrabs into spreadsheets quickly

we can do this, if we work it and compromise slightly.

I'd rather release in the morning than the evening.

perfection is the enemy of good

Global politics gets buried on Friday. But recreational stuff gears up for weekends. Don't most agents play more on weekends? Does this not track different?


Just asking since I don't know.

It should be in the morning evening kills rapid distribution

when I play I dont read G+

Compromise.

Noon

Thursday

Maybe. I'm not sure. Whatever we produce has to be at least as compelling as the gdocs WB gave us, but more concise

Like, I know how I would write it, but I'm not a good writer. I'm maybe not a good judge of writing. I think I'd need to see a whole thing to know if it's right.

noon eastern Thursday seems ok

maybe

if there's a lot of investment

we'd be cutting short the 24 hour window for krug

but fuck it

We can do this, this is important.

well, if we know for fucking sure that we'll be releasing at noon on Thursday, I'll tell him noon tomorrow

you give him 16 hours notice he'll be just as happy

As in ten hours from now?

you cant just be sure, you've got to have it ready to deploy in case the whole thing explodes

sure. That's an Ingress lifetime. But it means we need some folks to buy in hard on development of the information source

which you wont have till tomorrow afternoon at the earliest

I would only put the breaks on if the WB needs another day to acquire more or deeper information, and access will halt when this bomb drops

I'm ok telling WB that we're going to release noon on Thursday and need to get everything she can before that. My sense is that she'll understand.

I gotta get up in four hours for work. When I get to work I will find hiding spots to help however I can with the content. A web designer I am not, however.

I'd feel better with Friday morning

but *shrug*

We may end up throwing a monkey wrench in our timeline if Krug respectfully asks us to delay until he can take action internally.

That means something is being done. A valid reason for delay no?

Shooting for Thursday noon gives us buffer time to slip to Thursday evening or Friday morning if we absolutely have to, or Krug asks us.

I think we want the exposure and transparency also.

We don't want him to backroom it.

I would present it as a heads up not as a please fix this or it goes public

An announcement is going to be made at such and such time, just wanted to be respectful and give you a heads-up that it's coming so you can do what you need to do.

Can we make our website look like this one?

the images are already stripped of metadata, it would seem

so removing the headers and footers is optional and would save us a bunch of work

maybe check with WB on whether they want it

😂

Heh, I could do that. But sorry I am consumed with other matter that need legal attention thus week.

Wish I could help compile this mess, but I'll will help disseminate as I can when it goes public

Must sleep. See you all tomorrow. 👍

Rocinante, Juicytooz, are both in there. Local Erie Kings and under STLCards regionally. #necro #almostbacklogged

"RIOT is a database that aggregates scraped comms data.


Using it, Resistance agents can query:


- all the portals belonging to a specified agent, including the dates on which those portals were captured
- upcoming Guardian portal candidates for a given region
- an agent's home portal and start date


Additional applications exist that enable authorized RES agents to:


- launch their own distributed scraping engines
- receive real time alerts on data not available via intel review, such as VRLA and hack mod deployment
- identify clusters of L7 and L8 portals (farms)


The functionality that drives these features and their use are violations of the Niantic Terms of Service.


A minimum of 680 RES agents are currently making use of these features. They include Niantic employees, Vanguards, and anomaly POCs.


Here are some examples:

Here is a list of all RES agents currently using these features

Here is complete screenshot evidence documenting these claims:

ok, I pulled all the images from the docs

added to a folder

That layout alone without connecting the dots is Equivalent to the payload of the Enola gay

I think there are some rewrites to increase impact

bring the language down a bit

yeah. I'm not a good writer.

you're fine. everyone is better with editing

I have hang ups that I have a hard time seeing

I'm just trying to suggest a framework

my sister is amazing at it

It is an outline and as that it works

Just a little polish is all it needs.

I took a crack at it, others should do the same
