What do you hope to achieve by screwing with their data mining operations?
- tlongren 13y agoI don't hope to achieve anything. But I'm sure there's folks out there who would have some motive to do so.
- gee_totes 13y agoI'm thinking that a realistic goal of screwing with the data mining operation would be social engineering drone strikes. I'm connecting 2 dots here: * 1 in 4 drone strikes is on an unknown person[0] * The CIA must get their intel for the strikes from somewhere, why not the NSA? This would, of course, require stetting up honeypot email and social media accounts to pose as terrorists and have that information look like it's actually coming from somewhere where drone strikes are taking place (think proxies and GPS spoofing). You would probably have to use your face social media terrorists to drum up some conversation with real terrorists as well (i.e. "friend" KSM or someone like that). From there, you could spoof a check in on Yemen's Foursquare (Arba-square?) and wait for the drones to arrive. Why you would even do this, I have no idea.
