The Register: DEF CON bans three Epstein-linked men from future events. “Pablos Holman, Vincenzo Iozzo, and Joichi Ito are the first names to be added to the shortlist this year, preventing them from attending any future conferences. Organizers said contact with the sex offender provided a rationale for the sanction.”

Furthermore, we know how important the task of discrediting survivor testimony is to the Epstein class as a whole, because we saw it play out very publicly in 2017 with the #MeToo movement, and the organized backlash against it by abusive men with positions of power in our society. How would the world's most famous pedophile, and those in his orbit respond to a society-wide shift in the discourse encouraging us to "believe women" and survivors? Well, if his inbox is any indication, #Epstein himself helped organize the backlash to discredit the movement, at the prompting of Michael Wolff; who is being exposed as an enabler for Epstein's influence trading operation and image rehabilitation efforts, through these file releases.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2026/feb/06/epstein-files-metoo
Epstein said he was ‘asked everyday’ for advice on #MeToo: ‘So many guys reaching out to me’
"But when taken together, the emails, texts and other documents contained in the releases reveal Epstein’s engagement with the #MeToo movement and the men felled by it. In some cases, the convicted child sex offender and a coterie of elites strategized over how to blunt the power of the #MeToo movement and the women who fueled it.
“So many guys caught in the me too . reaching out to me. asking when does the madness stop,” Epstein wrote in December 2018 to a recipient whose identity is redacted."
Like every article about Epstein plotting with influential people, this piece is a hot mess that simultaneously drops too many bombshell revelations to keep track of, while also minimizing how deeply incriminating all of this is for literally anyone emailing the world's most famous pedophile blackmailer for advice on how to handle sexual assault, abuse, and harassment allegations against them or their rich friends. I guess if you know you're guilty, you turn to the guy who literally got away with a sex trafficking ring through networking and top flight public relations management, right?
If you want all the good dirt, you're going to have to read the whole article but let's put publicist #PeggySiegall, intellectual #NoamChomsky, and technologist #JoiIto on the "confirmed friends and confidants of Epstein who vented with him about #MeToo" list, "journalist" #RichardWolff, and scientist #LawrenceKrauss on the "strategized with Epstein about how to discredit survivor accusations and accounts in the wake of the #MeToo movement" list, and noted creep abusers outed during the #MeToo reckoning #StephenElliott and #LorinStein on standby because we don't have them talking to Epstein directly, but Richard Wolff sought out Epstein's advice on their behalf and it would appear that Elliot in particular acted on that advice.
And that is the part I want to focus on, because while I'm tempted to believe The Guardian buried the lede here, the reality that Epstein was deeply involved in developing a strategy to protect other powerful rich men accused of abusing their status to engage in sexual violence and harassment against women is exposed in the article - they just broke it up into two parts.
"Wolff wanted Epstein to support Stephen Elliott, a writer looking to sue the creator of the Shitty Media Men List, a crowd-sourced Google Doc that detailed anonymous allegations of misconduct against dozens of men who worked in the media industry.
“I have always thought that the way back from this climate is through specific instances of individuals successfully challenging their persecution,” Wolff wrote to Epstein, according to emails released in a tranche from the so-called Epstein files. “If his story is solid he might be worth supporting.”
Initially, Epstein was unmoved. In a single-word, no-punctuation email, the convicted sexual offender replied: “tough.”
“Give it some further thought, if you would,” wrote Wolff, who had originally received Elliott’s pitch through Lorin Stein, the former editor of the prestigious Paris Review and another name on the Shitty Media Men List. “I think there is an opening here. What you need is an excuse – or opportunity – to make the public argument.”
Epstein relented: “ill help anyway i can. if you like.”
Weeks later, Elliott sued Moira Donegan, the Shitty Media Men List’s creator."
Of course, we only have access to the Epstein emails already released, so all we know is that tons of influential people seemed to think Epstein was the go-to guy on #MeToo; which is incriminating in its own right. But as the Guardian slyly notes later, the proof of the plot is kind of in the pudding.
"Wolff’s apparent suggestion, that accused individuals file lawsuit proved prescient, since defamation lawsuits have become a major feature of the backlash to #MeToo. As of last year, nearly a fifth of the 400-plus cases supported by the Time’s Up Legal Defense Fund, a post-#MeToo organization that helps people who survived sexual harassment at work, were in defense of someone sued for defamation."
Folks the plot to erase "believe women" as an IDEA goes deep.

#EpsteinFiles reveal mentions of Vladimir #Putin, intelligence allegations and contacts with #Russia
Some media outlets reporting on the files contend that Epstein may have been involved in what is described in intelligence circles as a “#honeytrap” operation, a strategy historically associated with intelligence services that uses sexual or romantic lures to gather compromising material (or #kompromat) on powerful individuals.
By Maitreyee Thakkar, Global Desk
Last Updated: Feb 02, 2026, 02:14:00 PM ISTExcerpt: "Newly released documents from the #JeffreyEpstein case have sparked renewed attention to alleged connections between the late financier and high-level figures in Russia, including President #VladimirPutin and purported intelligence networks. While the claims are serious and widely circulated in media reports, concrete evidence linking Epstein to formal Russian intelligence operations remains unverified.
"A tranche of internal emails and communications unveiled by the US Department of Justice includes more than 1,000 references to Putin and nearly 10,000 mentioning Moscow, according to The Standard.
"In one 2011 email according to the outlet, an unnamed intermediary writes that Epstein planned an 'appointment with Putin' in Russia, with travel arrangements discussed through a contact identified only as 'Igor' .
"In a 2014 email, Japanese entrepreneur #JoiIto appears to inform Epstein that a meeting involving Putin was being considered, though the plan was reportedly dropped after the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 tragedy, which saw Russian forces shoot down a passenger jet over Ukraine and kill 298 people.
"An FBI report further alleged that Epstein maintained a close relationship with former Israeli prime minister #EhudBarak and claimed he was 'trained as a spy' under Barak’s guidance."
[...]
"The documents and accompanying reporting also revisit Epstein’s long-rumoured links to the late media tycoon #RobertMaxwell, father of #GhislaineMaxwell. Robert Maxwell, who died in 1991, has been alleged by multiple investigations to have had connections with Israeli intelligence and contacts in the Soviet bloc."

@touaregtweet there's some very interesting emails in the nov. #EpsteinFiles where Joi Ito (head of the #MIT #MediaLab at the time) emails Epstein in a panic about the fact that Obama had announced an initiative to track down the wealth of #Putin and other russian #oligarchs.

@mo @oliverg @eric_maechler Drei. Vier, wenn man 2010 mit reinnimmt, aber die Bay Area Rejects gab es nach 2010 nicht mehr wirklich.
Damals sind die Meisten in IRC (yay, #joiito) gewesen, aber die "Einladung" ist von IRC auf Orkut, etc. geteilt worden. Ich habe auf den Camps eine ganze Menge Menschen zum ersten Mal kennengelernt, aber Du hast schon Recht, dass irgendwer irgendwen von irgendwoher wahrscheinlich kannte.
"Regeln" an sich gab es erst mal nicht. Du darfst nicht vergessen, dass die BarCamp (oder die Camp-Kultur im Allgemeinen, gab ja auch das AusCamp, NYCamp, MumbaiCamp, DevCamp, SexCamp, etc.) sehr stark mit der Wiki-Kultur verknüpft war.
Die "Regeln" haben sich mit der Zeit entwickelt, Jede:r hat irgendwann einmal etwas dazu aufs (jetzt leider tote) Wiki geschrieben. Auf barcamp.org findest Du die neueren Versionen. Eine der ersten Richtinien war das hier, von Termie und Tantek:
The Bay Area Camp, BarCamp, is an un-invited, open un-conference like OpenSpace but has a less rigid structure.
Everyone can attend. Attendance is free of charge and restricted only by space constraints.
Following the model of Foo Camp, the venue also makes space for the attendees, or BarCampers, to camp out overnight.
BarCamps are organized and evangelized through the web; anyone can initiate a BarCamp using the BarCamp wiki.Damals gab es zwei Regeln (Fight Club war 4 Jahre alt und Gospel in der Szene):
1st Rule: You do talk about BarCamp.
2nd Rule: You do blog about BarCamp.2006 gab es noch:
You do not advertise on BarCamp
Show your work
Be excellent to each otherIch war damals der einzige Angestellte der WordPress Inc. (später Automattic) und Matt hatte auf WordPress.com heimlich Werbung geschaltet. Das gab einen riesen Shitstorm, und Matt war im Urlaub, also musste ich das ausbaden. Das führte zu dem "you do not advertise." Der Rest ist einfach Common Sense.

Anyone still use IRC? After the freenode debacle, and everyone deserting #joiito I've lost touch. I'm missing the quasi-real time, quasi-async group chat with like minded nerds.
The one thing IRC never really sorted was searchab;e history sync to find out what happened over night. There have been other FOSS and decentralised attempts to do a better IRC. Patchwork and the scuttlebutt protocol anyone?
