π¨NEWπ¨ One of Iran's most notorious hacker crews, linked by Israelis to Tehran's intelligence apparatus, is using Elon Musk's Starlink to stay online.
It also has a blue tick account on Elon Musk's X, where it's been advertising its unverified retaliatory hacks.

Good thing @ddosecrets.org preserved those records ddosecrets.org/article/epst...
See also our collaboration with @jmail.world to make them searchable, including DDoSecrets' leaked archive of Epstein emails ddosecrets.org/article/epst..., which we partnered with @dropsitenews.com on
The Justice Department has withheld some Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor, an NPR investigation finds. It also removed some documents from the public database where accusations against Jeffrey Epstein also mention Trump.

π¨NEWπ¨ Epstein could've made $$$ off his investment in a police tech startup then valued at $4.5m.
The startup says it never knew of his involvement, concealed by Ehud Barak, former Israel PM.
The company is about to sell for Axon for $625 million.

π¨NEWπ¨ Epstein paid tens of thousands to a search engine expert to promote his philanthropy and bury negative news on Google Search about his sex trafficking.
That included getting a positive story in Forbes.
First insight into how that all happened here.

Maybe this is also why he went to DEF CON to scout for hacking talent

Barak also promoted an Amazon Alexa-hacking startup called Toka to Epstein and asked him to pass it on to his government contacts...

Laying off @joemenn.bsky.social is the newsroom management equivalent of stapling your dick to the wall. Truly insane move, and one of many.

The FBI is using facial recognition to identify ICE protestors from YouTube and social media β a chilling escalation of surveillance against the constitutional right to protest.
@thomasbrewster.bsky.social reports on whatβs at stake for protest and privacy rights:
Jeffrey Epstein being super creepy in front of a startup founder
When a PR fixer turned VC introduced a startup founder to Jeffrey Epstein... what a lede from @iainmartin.bsky.social π«

Keep in mind the FBI is relying heavily on footage from tipsters at ICE protests, some of whom are likely against the anti-ICE movement.

There's a lot of Steven Bannon in the Epstein files, but I laughed out loud when Epstein asked a contact if he thought it possible Bannon could do a talk at DEF CON.

In one case, a citizen helped outβan FBI tipster used their own facial recognition to identify someone allegedly stealing a weapon from an FBI car during the Minneapolis protests.
They then gave the FBI the identity and social media profiles of the person.

π¨NEWπ¨ The FBI used facial recognition to identify then charge ICE protestors causing damage to gov property in Minneapolis.
Agents have been looking through YouTube footage, as well as video sent in by tipsters at the protests, before deploying the surveillance tech.

A YouTube creator whose footage the FBI used to identify a protester with facial recognition told me they didn't know their video had been used by the feds and "we condemn these actions."
