"iran-linked" maybe, but there's never been a better time for China to make good use of their military hacker units. They get to launder it all through Iran.

Just like the US used to launder their colonial project in the middle east through Israel.

You're right, credit is claimed by a specific group whose only confirmed Iranian links are making Israeli tools mad, so they're not randos, but there's also no proof they're military.

Quite frankly there's literally nothing this DoJ can say that can be taken seriously, they're the same clowns that called a Turan Ammo manufacturing mark "trans ideology."

If actual adults have linked the group to Iran feel free to post that source.

Plenty of Blackwater-esque paramilitary goons for hire going on when it comes to cyber things.

And you're right. What the hell does trustworthy even mean anymore.

Sure, maybe they are, anything is possible, but the overall point is that Patel is so wildly incompetent that implying the people that got into his email have to be some group with real resources behind them is just wrong.

Dudes like Patel are exactly why everyone has to watch yearly videos about not plugging random USBs into your work computer and why "pAssw0rd" isn't an acceptable password.

Ok yes he is a complete goon obviously.

I'm just saying that if I were china, I'd be making top notch propaganda films, selectively leaking embarrassing stuff, etc.

The us is getting completely outmaneuvered by Iran, the latest thing they've said is that ships going to countries that don't buy US treasuries will be permitted through. That's a brilliant move, the willingness of hedge fund owners and other countries to buy treasuries is the only thing keeping the lights on in Washington.

The people making decisions in Iran live in the real world, the people making decisions in the US are insane.

I saw him in a bar with a bunch of people brandishing some diploma or other about entering a sect or secret society or something.

Like, I'm 100% truthful, not shitting you. It was innocuous (OR WAS IT?!) but that's basically the only photos I saw in his leaked mails, under the "Photos" directory.

Someone posted a link (kudos ivn): https://ddosecrets.org/article/kash-patel-emails
