- 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

- πŸ˜‚

- 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. πŸ‘

- 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

- That's pretty solid. At first glance (why the actual fuck does my phone predict "glans" instead of "glance?") I would tweak a couple of minor grammar things, but all the info is there and succinct

- My only suggestion in the polish as I am currently nearly if not completely asleep.. is the language need a to be simple non geek if we want impact on the community at large, remember many non connected players my not understand scrapping and other terms contained therein, I know myself had I not become connected with a group I would not have a clue about POC and the implications. Short explanations should be included. Especially for location data or heat maps. Excuse my rambling but the backlash connection that kind of Data available if the same was extracted for Pogo the implications of kids safety goes far.

- Hrm. Could we use "riot" in the website URL, like "riot act" or "run riot" etc?

- Riot gun

- maybe! it sounds like we're leaning toward using tinyurl instead of a FQDN though. This is probably a requirement for the timeline we're talking about, because registration and domain propagation takes time.

- Riot.rocks

- If I had any brain power left tonight I would love to take a crack at trying to add some of this into what @theprevaricator posted. I can give it a shot tomorrow if it's not finalized yet

- Oops that's already taken

- I think... do we want more of an intro than just "Riot is a database..." ?

- A couple points that dont make sense for the website but should accompany the announcement post.

A) Yes, some enl probably do it too, but nothing on this scale.
B) No really, nothing remotely like this.
C) There will always be tools. If this thing collapses, something else will take its place.
D) Resistance needs to collectively grow the fuck up and knock this shit off.

- It may be important to lead with WHY the scraping this is bad

- Its a human problem, not a technology problem

- #reminder

- ok, im going to bed

- Agreed the tech is not the issue it is how it is used.

- And my brain died hours ago I'm done. Good night we shall see what t he morning brings,

- I wonder if it would be .... something good words y and goodwill-like... to post screenshots of ~comparable ENL things if we're acknowledging that both sides do it

- the proposed writeup is a good evolution of what I started. There's a problematic bullet point in there, and I worry that the 'spirit of the game' stuff is a little preachy, but I'm a robot and everyone knows that.

- adding proposed language to pin

- πŸ‘

- Someone will find a better way to say it

- By tomorrow

- Realistically I won't get to it until late tomorrow morning, and I feel like that'll be too late

- My thing was an evolution of Lena's thing. Your thing is an evolution of my thing. This is how we do.
