I crosspost between Twitter and Bluesky, but sadly Bluesky does not have poll functionality. So I will post a screenshot of a poll I am running over there. Don't bother visiting to vote, because it was a trick question anyways

The most entertaining federal criminal charges I have ever read

36. Several days later, FOLTZ and Slaykings returned to discussing the fallout that they expected to befall their rival group, with Slaykings stating “Krebs is very revenge. He won’t stop until they are [expletive] to the bone.” FOLTZ responded, “Surprised they have any bots left.” Slaykings then expounded (corrected for grammar and spelling) “Krebs is not the one you want to have on your back. Not because he is scary or something, just because he will not give up UNTIL you are [expletive] [expletive]. Proved it with Mirai and many other cases.” a meme i made from the krebsonsecurity website banner using the words from the indictment. "[redacted] hit krebs" , “Going against Krebs isn’t a good move.” , “Krebs is very revenge.” , “he will not give up UNTIL you are [expletive] [expletive]”

Welcome to the USA. Enjoy your stay.

They put the "AI Mode" button in that exact spot in the hopes you accidentally click it and inflate some executive's usage report.
i'm Google searching something very important and when I switch between looking at images of that very important thing, and then switch back to all search results, I accidentally click AI mode and give Google the false impression that I ever want to see that shit.

chatgpt pls
chatgpt show me a picture of the publishers clearing house sweepstakes greeting a winner at their home, handing them a great big oversized check and balloons, but on the great big oversized check, instead of bank details, it says "cease & desist" and the balloons have text that say "you've been served"

Does anyone remember this from the 90's? Can someone bring back this delivery style, but instead use it for cease & desists?
A screenshot from an old video clip of a sweepstakes company delivering a big check to the house of some winner. in the 90's and early 2000's there were a lot of commercials about this to hype up their sweepstakes

new policy for classified signal groupchats
A screenshot of a family guy scene involving a pillow fort and a "no girls allowed" sign modified to say "no journalists allowed". The scene in the show is actually a reference to how important it is not to share classified materials with journalists.

The no-opsec Army guy who was part of the group that leaked Trump's call logs (and worse, threatened me) google searched how to defect to Russia and "can hacking be treason" 💀💀💀💀

He was never going to get away.

Some good news today. A court agreed with gov appeal that the sentence for pompompurin (cybercrime and CSAM charges) was too lenient. Recidivism was a factor and court says autism, or being too soft and white for prison, isn't an excuse. I haven't seen a court address the subject in this way before.

Thank you to cybercriminals who sacrifice themselves in order to give us free marketing.
Depicted is a a cybercriminal that had threatened us. Username is "0psecgod". In this Tweet, he complains that we're using their names for clout and that they make us money. At the time of the original post in September, we were not, but only because we were saving it for later, to use as free marketing after the arrest.
