Question: How would you, as DIA or NSA or 'Q' White Hats, come out and explain to world leaders, foreign governments, corporations, Billions of people... that you have copies of every conversation, every transaction, every email...and have the ability to monitor anything in the world any time you wish? How would you announce it without giving away your entire infrastructure and destroying your monitoring ability in the future? How can you disclose that info without starting a war? Or causing world-wide murders and "suicides" in certain corrupt circles?
John McAffee.
HE was the one listening. HE gathered up all of this information that is now coming out on illegal activities. HE was the one tracing cryptocurrency transactions. HE listened to your phone calls, read your emails, monitored government officials and corporations by tracking their computers. :>) We didn't realize he was a rogue.
Well... done is done. Too bad he's dead or we could have questioned him. :>) Here are the 31 Terrabytes of information he collected, and it is verified as legitimate. Oh my!!! Look at all of the criminal information! Weird that he had everything on the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations, and it's all available now for everyone to read.
The DIA, NSA, etc... never have to disclose that THEY gathered the info. There is nothing disclosed about how THEY monitor computers, cell phone calls, transactions of all sorts... so their infrastructure remains safe and beyond question. They now can release anything they want and blame it on John McAffee. This seems to be pretty convenient just before the White Hats make SHTF world wide.
You're right and especially someone who comes from a tech background.. But the thing is John wasn't actually really too involved in tech after he sold McAfee. He was rich as shit & just spent the next several decades partying. By the time he was broke tech had changed so much, and 'terabyte' was not a word that even came up back then. If you really listen to some of his in depth videos about security he says a lot but nothing at all of substance that is really insightful. Just my opinion but he really wasn't as versed in these kinds of things as he wanted people to believe. He saw the importance of being seen that way though & really played into it, and in the end he even made fast money again with it with his crypto of the week.
