I had a thought about Darnkness and 10 days dark
🤔💭 Theory 😲💡
As far as I can tell the Election machines need an internet connection to determine how the vote should be changed in almost real time. What if we kill the internet on Election night? Darnkness. Does their system fail? What if we had Milions of IP adresses prepared for a misdirection or modification of data? Funny thing is is that with Starlink many around the world would still be on line the whole 10 days. Just thinking out loud. Any thoughts?
There have been videos by Black Pigeon speaks of the internet being erased. What if the internet is not being erased, but chunks are being taken offline. It's a shutdown that doesn't look like a shut down. Q said "Net will be paused" and "HAMMER"
Shutting down the internet would cause a panic. Many need the internet for running their business or communication. Causing a panic would be bad for white hats.
Lately I've noticed searches are crap after 5-6 pages and you get strange filler websites that don't seem like real websites at all.
I was discussing this with u/lonewulf and he has some good input.
Theoretically, could you shut down the internet in a way that goes mostly unnoticed by the sheep. On the surface the internet seems fine, but all the meat has been removed. You essentially leave enough up for the sheep to use its infrastructure, but the dark web where the criminal activities operate are shut down and cleaned out.
Maybe an internet shut down wouldn't be a big event like we expect. Maybe they'd keep a "shell" of it going to prevent mass panic. It would be like "Weekend At Bernie's" the internet edition.
Dead? No, Bernie looks fine. See? He's taking a nap in the beach chair.
Shut down? No, the internet looks fine. See everything still seems to be there. Just less of it...and it's a little lifeless.
"Lately I've noticed searches are crap after 5-6 pages and you get strange filler websites that don't seem like real websites at all"
This intrigued me...I tested it and confirmed.
You should check out Google's video search. It has gone to utter shit. I mean complete garbage bad.
I generally make it a rule to avoid anything to do with that organisation, but will check it out.
I like this idea. Yet I grew up without internet way before it and life was wayyy simpler. We didn’t know anything was missing since it wasn’t there yet. Seriously, couldn’t we just do without it?!
In a lot of respects, the internet is like brain cells connected by synapses. Each cell (computer) is independent on its own, but when connected by synapses it provides the ability to communicate with all of the the other cells (computers).
The protocol for moving packets of data around has been agreed upon by all.
So, I send a request for data, and the request gets passed around until it reaches its destination. The destination retrieves the requested data and sends it back to me in little packets, which get reassembled and put on my computer screen for me to read.
The internet is just the delivery and retrieval system. It's pretty dumb, all in all.
What's important is what is happening at each brain cell (computer). Is it performing a useful function (legitimate business) or is it doing something nefarious (voter fraud, human trafficking, etc.)?
If someone has taken control of the delivery system and can access the data on individual computers, well, that's a lot of power. In theory, one could control the flow of information. Of course, the data isn't just sitting out there unprotected. There are lots of mechanisms in place to protect the data, but that's not to say it can't be hacked into. For every lock, there is a key. For every front door, there's a back door.
Lots of possibilities for what a group of intelligent people could potentially do, especially given that the internet is basically modular. Pull out one piece and replace it with another piece.
Could you control the flow of data? Could you replace/manipulate the data? Could you control what data is viewed and what is not? Sure, why not? There isn't a piece of code in the world that doesn't have a bug or two or three in it. It would just be a question of taking advantage of the situation at hand.
There was no internet porn or internet child trafficking before internet. I’ve no doubt those crime occurred alot, yet perhaps not as rampantly.
