Albert Gonzales, also known as KumbaJohnny, remains one of the most controversial figures in hacker history. His double life as a hacker and a Secret Service informant didn't win him any friends despite his genius and skills. Here's his story.

“The deal is a deep betrayal of US law enforcement, whose agents risked their lives to apprehend the gang members,” said Douglas Farah, a US contractor who worked with federal officials to investigate & help dismantle the #MS13 gang.
Nixing the agreements also threatens to damage the credibility of the #DOJ, which routinely relies on #informants to build cases against high-level criminals, ofcls said.

For #Bukele, a return of the informants was …a key step in hindering an ongoing US investigation into his government’s relationship with #MS13, a gang famous for displays of excessive violence in the #UnitedStates & elsewhere.
But in promising to terminate the #informants’ arrangements, current & fmr #DOJ ofcls say #Rubio threatened to undercut years of work by US law enforcement to apprehend & secure the cooperation of high-ranking members of one of the world’s most deadly gangs.

While the outlines of the quid pro quo have been public for months, the #Trump admin’s willingness to renege on secret arrangements made with #informants who had aided #US investigations has not been previously reported.
…The deal would give #Bukele possession of individuals who threatened to expose the alleged *deals* his govt made with #MS13 to help achieve #ElSalvador’s historic drop in violence, officials said.

In the days before the #Trump admin deported hundreds of #Venezuelan immigrants to #CECOT, a notorious prison in #ElSalvador, the president of that country demanded something: the return of 9 MS13 gang leaders in US custody. Secy of #State #MarcoRubio, in a March 13 phone call with Salvadoran President Nayib #Bukele, promised the request would be fulfilled….But there was one obstacle: Some of the MS-13 members Bukele wanted were “#informants” under the #protection of the US govt, Rubio told him.

"The Trump administration is requesting Congress double a homeland security fund to pay off confidential informants, according to the detailed budget documents released Friday. It is the first time in a decade that the fund has been increased.
The move is part of a broader push pitting traditional against cutting edge methods to prevent attacks before they happen, a goal enjoying newfound urgency following the Molotov cocktail attack on pro-Israel marchers in Boulder, Colorado yesterday.
“It is a whole new host of threat vectors you have to go after,” said Paul Mauro, the former chief of the NYPD’s intelligence arm, responding to the Boulder attack. Not very long ago, Mauro told Fox News, the nation’s domestic intelligence fighters were worried about “Al Qaeda having a sleeper cell here and ISIS weaponizing people over the internet.”
Now, Mauro continued, “the incubators are on campuses and in high schools and online” — in other words, everywhere.
Preventing an attack before it occurs is a paradigm born out of 9/11. The idea was that a combination of police and intelligence work can be applied to stop plotters from committing crimes in the first place. This is the holy grail of domestic homeland security. But it hasn’t been particularly successful, with politically-motivated assassinations and related acts of violence on the rise."

This is the beginning of the end. The turning of the internet into a bot swamp.
Russia was first, now it’s going to be the police. Next private companies are gonna do it, and it’s going to be mass sentiment manipulation.
Simulating humans should have been made illegal the minute we thought of the tools that could pull it off.

无政府主义女权主义不是简单的“性别平权”者 ——
激进女权主义与无政府主义理论和实践之间的联系是显而易见的。
无政府主义女权主义本质上是自我意识理论发展的一个步骤，无政府主义女权主义者相信，明确的无政府主义分析、以及对面临类似结构和理论障碍的无政府主义者历史的了解，将有助于女性克服精英的胁迫，创建对其成员负责并且没有等级制度压迫的组织结构。
“女权主义”绝·不·意味着女性掌权或女性总统，相反，它意味着没有统治权力，没有总统。

🧬～ Women's Day 2025 研讨会 《为什么说厌女者最容易成为出色的警察线人？—— 性别暴力如何助长激进运动中的国家暴力》
𝖎𝖞𝖔𝖚𝖕𝖔𝖗𝖙: 本项目将在未来开设关于激进派/和异议社区内部如何处理和尽可能减少性暴力/侵犯行为及类似程度的人际冲突的专题，以及，对如何通过革命性的组织结构打破屏障以构建变革项目和合作的具体战术问题进行探讨。关于反渗透（避免抓特务式的混乱内讧）这一议题我们将放在今年的主要工作 “Phase II” 中作为一个专题出现。
本文在我们近期主持的小范围研讨活动中采用，现分享给所有朋友，并附上我们粗略挑选的部分参与者的观点，这些观点反应的是参与者的个人经验和认识，IYP对此不做任何评论。
𝓐 ：…我觉得华人进步派社区还有很多基础级的功课需要做，比如，通过培训教会更多人如何把“女权”和妇联区分开、把团结和服从区分开、把辩论和捣乱区分开 …… 把性爱和剥削侵犯区分开…
𝓑 ：有时候人们可能会奇怪一些性暴力/性骚扰受害者为什么会在很多年之后才说出真相，为什么她们不能在第一时间直接反击？有人认为她们害怕侵犯者的势力和威胁，这样认为的人就会倾向于相信米兔运动能够帮助受害者减轻恐惧。但事实上不完全是那样。一些侵犯者以虚构的爱情和伪装的政治共识来骗取对方信任，一次甚至多次侵犯后会继续假装恋爱关系足够长的时间，然后再慢慢甩掉。他们可以同时对多个人这样做。其中每个受害者都在很多年之后才会意识到自己被骗了…… 一直以来我们只是在普及如何反击，我觉得这是不够的……
𝓒 ：说到反贼，我觉得很多人有误会。现如今窝在微信群聊里的某些人，不客气的说，仅仅是看清了党国的穷途末路想要转身押注下一个主子而已，他们心里最关注的东西是自己的股票行情、自家的不动产保值、鸡娃的竞争力、如何花最少的钱润出去然后在圈子里吹牛，而不是你们所想象的反抗运动，

CW: uspol / white nationalism
So, back to an earlier thread on the FBI, Proud Boys, and the fact that Enrique Tarrio was an FBI informant.
https://mastodon.social/@AnarchoNinaWrites/105939779108488224
The conclusion Nina draws from this is that "the FBI was running the Proud Boys".
So, I've got issues with that characterisation.
Consider a few alternate scenarios:
- A US left-wing organisation is infiltrated by intelligence / FBI operatives or agents. Are those "run" by the FBI?
- East Germany, in which to a first approximation half the population was informing on the other half. We now have the Stazi files. (Similar well-documented mass citizen-conducted surveillance is also documented in Ukraine, where the KGB files have been made public.)
- Puerto Rico, where the FUPI independence movement was heavily infiltrated by, again, FBI-managed informants. WNYC's "La Brega" podcast covers this, see: https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm/episodes/encyclopedia-betrayal-on-the-media#ember10324782
