The interesting part about this story is that if you're getting paid €15 an hour, to moderate facebook, and mark/flag garbage, you probably aren't doing anything important, and have saved no one's life. You are a cog in a machine that pays lip service to some misplaced idea that this sort of thing can intervene, and deflect negative outcomes into controlled results. But, also even for all the nothing that this day job accomplishes, now we have an identity spill, and "terrorists" who don't really care about who they kill, so much as how many get killed (they will literally stab random people on the street, without warning, given the opportunity), now have a short list of people they can make easy news with. Not because they think this will matter, or get results, or slow down their open and flagrant use of facebook anyway, but because it's a splashy news item that they can use as a promotional device. So nobodies accomplishing nothing, maybe get squished by people who know that these targets don't actually matter in a tactical or strategic sense, but incidentally as a public relations bump. And so, if one person from the group of people suffers harm, the machine grinds onward on both sides unchanged, and this distraction evaporates, as more inconsequential crap gets dumped onto facebook, and faceless "whoevers" pick through the tin cans and banana peels looking for a smoking gun that will never appear. The difference being that they would be slightly less than random targets, but still nobodies, brought down by sacrificed expendable cannon fodder, entrapped into suicide attacks no matter what.
