Imagine getting Intel on yourself and it flags you as a serious threat and that's what gives you the confidence in yourself needed to act on it.

[–] porksnort@slrpnk.net 16 points 2 months ago

The real societal threat was the friends you made along they way!

That would js confirm I've got good OPSEC

[–] Monument@lemmy.sdf.org 26 points 2 months ago

Good. I don’t want them bitches to think they know me.

If you were actually a high-risk threat, you'd be elated to be able to operate in relative stealth.

I don’t even have SECs anymore.

Remember boys and girls, the obbo is real 💯

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world -1 points 2 months ago

Are we talking Hegseth OPSEC or actual OPSEC?

Me when I find my plalantir file:

What the fuck does the smiley emoji mean?

These are DOGE approved emoji ratings.

Is this an Elite reference?

[–] shai_hulud@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The Hitchhker'a Guide To The Galaxy.

[–] Vupware@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Dammit, I need to get around to reading that.

Regarding Earth:

“What? Harmless? Is that all it’s got to say? Harmless! One word!”

Ford shrugged. “Well, there are a hundred billion stars in the Galaxy, and only a limited amount of space in the book’s microprocessors,” he said, “and no one knew much about the Earth, of course.”

“Well, for God’s sake, I hope you managed to rectify that a bit.”

“Oh yes, well, I managed to transmit a new entry off to the editor. He had to trim it a bit, but it’s still an improvement.”

“And what does it say now?” asked Arthur.

“Mostly harmless,” admitted Ford with a slightly embarrassed cough.

Back in the day, if you wrote to the FBI and asked if there was file on you, they would start a file on you.

[–] Dalkor@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Still do. It's a paradox of sorts. They are required to log actions. You making a request and them filling the request is an action. If you didn't have any previous actions, now you do, and so they start a file on you.

[–] kogasa@programming.dev 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Did they answer the question?

[–] Tugboater203@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I didn't ask

[–] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 11 points 2 months ago

I'd feel relieved and slightly insulted

[–] antsu@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 2 months ago

"Object Class: Keter"

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I’m assuming this is a joke but is it actually possible to see such files somehow?

[–] Charlxmagne@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Considering all these bookey-ass dystopian surveillance companies especially data brokers circle jerk and share data with each other, you could prolly buy your own data from brokers, providing u meet criteria, and ur OPSEC is absolute shite (if it isn't you might be lucky enough not to see much of anything identifying).

from what I've heard, the moment anyone gets access to Palantir they instantly look up everyone they know.

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

But how would you get access? Government worker I guess?

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

Government, police, large enterprises (Airbus, Merck, Ferrari, JP Morgan chase Bank are all customers)

Only if your high enough of a risk to ~~walk right in~~ have a drone kill your entire genetic liniage.

"I would kill for that job!" Threat assessment: low.
