- Igns not so much. Don't tell anyway.

- Gotcha

- Also powerwording

- I think they need to do a carpetbombing. Ban as many as they reasonably can, make others avoid it like the plaque.

- 410,000 hits as of this morning. damn

- I'm just going to drink a whisky tonight and enjoy myself.

And bite holes in my tongue not to ask him where my oldest portal is and when they plan on killing it.

- This is the email that they sent out to all their members yesterday morning just as it was going public

- Again not for reshare

- But shows the cognitive dissonance and messaging starting.

- Doesn't really explain the name or the idea of a broker

- Right.. I hadn't thought of that

- The name itself implies hunting.

- Why on earth would people query for aged portals then?

- Just a load of bullshit but basically confirms NIA shared the dump.

- Sorry, doesn't hold water with me.

- Yeah. Best case this is a guardian hunting tool that got adapted to do other things

- I agree. If they cared about spoofing they could have restricted the tool.

- They cared about hunting and it also allowed them to track spoofing.

- I do buy that some people in the group are only there to track spoofing

- Here's how I see this: I carry a knife. It can be used to eat with. It can also be used to kill someone. Only one of those ways is legal.

- lol, I like the implication there though. They think we are pushing for recharge badges so we can badge spoofers who assist in an anomaly

- I'd have more respect for them if they just admitted to it.

- I have nothing but respect for assholes. They're honest.

- how many times can we use spoof in a message?

- Lol

- I get a kick out of the spoofing allegations. In our region that’s all they did until stlcard caught a long term softban.

- But querying for an agents oldest portals and killing it an hour later totally solves spoofing.

- Also that they lost DC because spoofers. Not because they suck.

- They must think people are morons.

- And I still want an explanation from Niantic as to how the dump got to the RES.

- Also, after they lost Nashville we had an influx of blue spoof activity. Because they were pretty butthurt over it.

- Welp, if the RES party line is that they have Niantic's blessing to use this to catch enlightened spoofers, all Niantic has to do is say "yes, that's true"

- I read that as they see our recharge efforts as orchestrated spoofing. That they think people aren't actually mashing the button

- Disregards all the photos

- And stats

- The NO U's begin

- He’s Res

- Niantic would never admit they sanctioned players to gather that much user info into a database. They may as well slit their wrist and go to the EU privacy enforcement authorities now

- +1

- On that email — it’s a blatant lie, there are too many spoofers in the guild.

- Yup.

- if RES is dumb enough to push it, easy shutdown

- It’s also an acknowledgement that it’s all real.

- They try to imply that Niantic wanted them to do it

- Ok, but the implication it seems like youre making (I could be misunderstanding) is that someone from this room not only leaked it, but is leaking the names of most of the people in the room. That's a much bigger implication than the original leak.

- While I could believe that J. Random Res on the East Coast doesn’t know SilverSpork spoofs, it’s not realistic that a PNW Res doesn’t know it.

- I keep banging the drum but I think Niantic has a lot to answer for here.

- Well, it’s for rooting out ENL spoofing.

- Pretty sure 1brads portal got spoofed in Mexico by the guild... because they thought he got it by spoofing.

- Our RES PoC here uses spoofing as his primary method of play nowadays

- Also nice touch using "brothers"

- You will imagineably push off more people that have earned it rather than have people help that cause.

- I'm pretty sure someone on Res is a Mass Effect fan boy. The Information Broker in that universe is a shadowy figure who has a network of people who deal in strategic info about others.

- I'll be back in a bit

- I have to finish this stupid banner I started

- Can we drop the patreon and the signup forms today?

- We haven’t touched the financial aspect yet

- Good idea

- Right?

- Um fuck yea, I didn't think those were confirmed.

- Point me to the images and something to make copy.

- What did you have in mind for this?

- Adding a page to the website that points to pay-for-info?

- Yes.

- Let me write some copy for you, one second.

- ok

- Oooo. Good call.

- so its reported from the places I am no longer in

- that that bot has been down since RIOT went down

- If y'all need a quick grammar edit on copy, I can help. DM me because I don't have notifications on for groups.

- Hey, friends. I think I'm going to back out of this thing now. You all are doing fabulous work and I don't really have the bandwidth to be much more then a passive observer at this point, considering what next steps are likely to involve. Love and support to everyone here and the project, keep fighting the good fight. 💚 Please feel welcome to remove my access to documents of course (honestly I've hardly looked at them anyway) and I'll catch you all on the next awesome project! hugs

- which could be due to niantic blocking AWS.

- Yea I was not aware of it either

- This is trivially testable; log into an AWS instance and check. I do not have an AWS instance handy. :D

- What’s AWS? For those of us who are technically impaired?

- Amazon web services I think

- An Amazon cloud computing service.

- Ah, thank you

- @theprevaricator ^^

- Two pages: one concise with clear links to Patreon and sample rewards, plus an explanation of how we got it

- One is the table of rewards; it's long enough so that I didn

- Didn't want it in the main to avoid detracting

- People gotta see the Patreon. :D

- Also two PDFs preserving the pages.

- Wait, one more PDF coming for the Patreon, duh

- rgr

- While I think it's true that it's hard for a large group to keep big secrets, I don't think anyone here directly leaked anything to the Res. We intentionally gave Krug a heads up that something big was coming. We handed over a preview of the site and our info to NIA Ops when they requested it. I can imagine a scenario like this... NIA Ops to employee on list, "hey, you wanna explain what your name is doing on this list that's going to go public in a few hours?".... Employee to Res buddies in the Guild, "Guys! We're about to get busted. My boss just called me in the office and I told him our cover story of helping to catch those mean spoofing ENL. Shut it down right now!".

If we tell Niantic, and Niantic is in the Guild, then that's how the Res found out. No leak from us required.

- wheres my evidence or links to prove this isnt made up? could we wayback it?

- Done.

- Hold one...

- also, isnt there metadata on these pdfs?

- Added screenshot: #radar channel info
