My friends and I had a joke called NSABox. It would send data around using words that would attract the attention of the NSA, and you could submit a FOIA request to recover the data. I always found it amusing.
- havblue 4y agoI've heard of the loic ion cannon dos tool described as a shortcut to getting sent to jail. This sounds similar.
- mechanical_bear 4y agoBig difference. LOIC actually impacts a target.
- mickeyp 4y agoThere's a feature in Emacs that does that (unsurprisingly.) It's called `M-x spook'. It inserts random gibberish that NSA and the Echelon project would've supposedly picked up back in the 90s.
- LukeShu 4y agospook.el was "introduced at or before Emacs version 18.52". And 18.52 was released in 1988. And spook.el in a comment says ;; Created: May 1987 So the things that the NSA and ECHELON would have picked up on back in the 1980s, not the 1990s :)
