Did their project include the leaked documents? :^)

score one for the good guys

just browse them on a pc with no internet
David James
Looks like a good time to start using LaTeX

no shit he was right, the guy is a fucking quantum space heaven genius

Stallman was right.
Eli Rogers
daily reminder that wikileaks is russia's project to undermine the faith in democracy. If you read wikileaks than you're traitor.
Dylan Bell
6/10 good format
Jacob Harris
It's always a good time to start using LaTeX

/po/ is leaking

watch CNN they did a greate job

How isn't this being bumped more? fuck this board full of shills.
You need to put this in a proper context. There are foreign countries who try manipulate the information flow in the west.
Jackson Campbell
people don't really care. take a look at the facebook thread regarding the targeting of troubled kids for marketing. the thread is nearing past limits, but do you think they're discussing underhanded Facebook tactics? No. it quickly turned into a/pol/ race thread, or maybe it's a cointel op, who knows. people simply don't care. however, i hope that the people who really matter are tracking this stuff, and adjusting accordingly. people like the individual that leaked the 'Panama Papers'.
Liam Barnes
Good thing i use libre office
Adrian Harris
I have been thinking about using LaTex outside its traditional usage scenarios, but tinkering with it below the surface in order to make it work for those purposes seems like a fucking mess. Any pointers on where to start?
Robert Taylor
What if all the derailing of threads into Sup Forumsack race issues was the cia intentionally keeping our threads unproductive
James Richardson
The CIA imported redditors to kill discussion and shilled that mass shitposting was site culture and that every board was like Sup Forums.
Parker Wood
that's exactly my point. even though Sup Forums and Sup Forums have seen the alphabet agency slides on how to go about infiltrating/breaking up forum consensus, we continually fall for the bait. those in power don't give a shit about loli threads, or any if the darkest sit we've all seen here. however, try to inform yourself and others about dark shit the government does, and watch the shitstorm that ensues against whomever dares to bring the truth to light.
Liam Butler
Don't. LaTeX is made for its purpose but is pretty retarded to use outside of it. Use LibreOffice or something
Charles Ramirez
>pretty retarded me pretty
Isaiah Johnson
>take a screenshot of the MS word document >no more tracking
I assumed they were tracking all original documents before, guess not.
Sebastian Price
I don't think they would allow screenshotting in whatever OS they're using. And using a real camera would be very easily spotted.
James Brown
>Democracy You can't be this retarded
Nathaniel Gomez
Like CNN and the Pentagon, your absolutely right, just not in the way you think
Oliver Cook
>"Web beacon"-style tags So they basically call home every time a document is opened in Word? Sounds about right.
We better start reading through the MS Office documentation to figure out how they might be embedding them. It's just a 70MB zipped PDF.
gtf We don't want to relate to your shitty ideologies, Stallman is the comfiest commie. Stallman doesn't even like U.S. republicans : stallman.org/notes/2016-may-aug.html fuck off nazi
Anthony Myers
Fuck off d&c CIA shill
Cameron Bailey
It's entirely possible that the web beacon uses protocols that are private and not visible on the publicly available spec for Word documents. It would explain why it doesn't work on OpenOffice or LibreOffice.
Jordan Walker
Although the jewes @ Microsoft, Adobe, Intel...
Do anything possible to ease monitoring you . the cattle, the customer - this botnet is avoidable as easily as:
- never use embedded readers in (browsers))) - download locally that shit you might wish to read - open on a 3rd party tool that's closed from connecting to anything (use a reliable firewall/block egress).
Cooper Bell
literal CIA niggers all up in your shit
IN YOUR WORD DOCS
Jason Green
this isn't surprising, though.. I've read stuff like this before, watermarking and "pinging" is even used at commercial companies to track leakers and shit
Wyatt Allen
