Are you sure you didn't leave your feedburner url in the index source. http://feeds.feedburner.com/turkeltaub http://feeds.feedburner.com/turkeltaub Which leads to https://twitter.com/ethnt https://twitter.com/ethnt (Web Developer and Computer Science Student) Which leads to the homepage of http://ethnt.me/profile/ http://ethnt.me/profile/ Who doesn't design website templates. Edit: It is wrong, Github search finds the `turkeltaub` https://github.com/search?o=desc&q=turkeltaub&ref=searchresults&s=indexed&type=Code https://github.com/search?o=desc&q=turkeltaub&ref=searchresu... Though here is the github repo link https://github.com/untraceableblog/untraceableblog.github.io/commits/master https://github.com/untraceableblog/untraceableblog.github.io...

That is hilarious, and also sad. As in, sad that someone can be so confident but also wrong about their secrecy. Imagine how bad it is for non-technical people with actual things to hide.

You might be on to something, at least both domains are using the same registrar and whois privacy protection service. Edit: Here is the ssh pubkey: https://github.com/untraceableblog.keys https://github.com/untraceableblog.keys

No, you haven't found him, the blog is using an open source theme and that theme contains the commented out feedburner URL. The repo: https://github.com/elisehein/Pageturner https://github.com/elisehein/Pageturner The file that URL comes from: https://github.com/elisehein/Pageturner/blob/master/source/_layouts/default.html https://github.com/elisehein/Pageturner/blob/master/source/_... Theme demo: http://www.fivetonine.eu/ http://www.fivetonine.eu/

 Why would he do that? Untraceable? EDIT: He just used someone else's source code, that explains it.

You can skip straight to the Github repo if you searched for the string 'sc_project=9570855' from the stat counter code near the bottom of the html source. First thing I did. And he/she was using Debian Live to do this as well. Alright, wasted enough time on this. I'm gonna say its Turk in Vic.

Hi all, owner of that Feedburner link here. I made an Octopress theme a long time ago, and it looks like someone forked/used that theme to make their own theme. Source of that specific Feedburner tag is here: https://github.com/eturk/ethan-archive/tree/55a01aaa03398a573cae265ab0905bc63036004e https://github.com/eturk/ethan-archive/tree/55a01aaa03398a57... Whoever first forked it probably just commented out, and then someone used that and so on.

  I have to say that it's interesting that you so quickly found that a reference to your theme had made its way on to HN, and on this particular thread. Unless I am missing something obvious?
  - robterrell 13y ago
    He has been using HN over 900 days, and this is on the front page -- it's quite possible he simply saw the article and comments just like you and I did.
    - ethnt 13y ago
      Nope, got a tweet from @epaga: https://twitter.com/epaga/status/428182592895328256 https://twitter.com/epaga/status/428182592895328256 I did see this article, I just didn't read the comments. No idea that this would be here had it not been for that tweet.
    - unclebucknasty 13y ago
      Sure it's possible. But, given that he hadn't commented or submitted on HN in 20+ days 'til now, it just seemed unlikely that he's currently actively delving into submissions/comments to the extent that he'd catch this so quickly. So, I just found it not so much an "Aha! Busted!" moment, as much as it was noteworthy.

Your comments bring up an amazing point for someone that is wanting to respect their anonymity. Using anonymity techniques and then intentionally but subtly leaking information that points toward someone you want to frame would likely be tremendously successful. The target would scream "I'm innocent" as they're dragged off to jail.

Whoops, I should apologize to that guy. Didn't notice the link in the source.
