This has been a constant stream of terrible reporting on this story. It's shocking. I guarantee the geriatric fuck that wrote this article didn't bother to ask a single nerd what they think. He actually called it stealthy. ITS A FUCKING CELL SIGNAL. they triangulate that shit for fun. They actually keep saying this could DDOS cell towers - do they think NYC has low pop density? that city creates more organic traffic from a baseball game than these devices could pump out, and they're so close to eachother they'd interfere with themselves WAY before they started to affect everyone else's access to that cell tower.

The reporting on this has been absolute shit. There's an endless stream of these types of cell services out there, they're definitely shady, this one got caught up facilitating prank calls to members of congress and they rightfully got raided. But the rest reeks of the capt crunch whistling into a phone to set off a nuke bullshit

This was an appropriate position for this situation like 10 years ago before this image was public. Now I squarely blame them for being dumb fucks.

I feel sorry for these kids - their parents are clearly dumb fucks for still using facebook.

Guess I'll go ahead and put Do Us Part, Split: A Film Anthology, and Orlando Gloom – Always the Same on a bunch of public trackers too, just in case.

At least the US government was trying to fix it back then.

Now the CEO gets invited to the white house to show off how they exploit your privacy for profit.

Man I thought that cat was dressed up in river waders for a good 30 seconds.

I was going to say these are definitely the backup singers to a Muppets musical number that the villain performs. Halfway thru the song one of them comically yet horrifically dies and the rest laugh about it
