Amazing "In 1998, he went before a federal judge in Pennsylvania to fight a $404,392 tax bill from the Internal Revenue Service, which was seeking back taxes and penalties on the more than $1 million he received from Moscow for espionage between 1989 and 1992. He lost the case."

@activemeasures.bsky.social (which is a real llc!) and I assume @wylienewmark.bsky.social with a jaw dropping presentation. Best analysis of SVR vs GRU and history of the forgeries in 2016 leaks I’ve ever heard. #cyberwarcon

"New breed" yeah no one has ever thought of this www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...

Looking forward to meeting Lukashev in person and asking, "I bet you wish you'd click 'make account private' on Bitly, huh?" theins.ru/en/news/286815

Let me be the first to say, as the Active Measures, LLC, that I believe Epstein *may not* be a credible source of information about things Epstein does, including with Russia. But, we haven't gotten Bleemer and Gorpman in ages, and we deserve a little (as a treat).

Christo should stop listening to the Russian hackers he pays to get selectors from Russian telcos (and also probably Välisluureamet), because the SVR* and GRU absolutely hacked the DNC. *come to @cyberwarcon.bsky.social on 19 Nov to hear more!

CIA finally learned how to rig an election huh

Do you get eepy? I get so eepy.

Have you ever wanted to see two terminally online nerds really (and I mean *really*) get into the SVR deep lore while continuing the eternal goal of making 2016 last forever? Gosh does @cyberwarcon.bsky.social have a talk for you!

Damn, if only there was a language for which "add oil to the fire" was actually idiomatic. Oh well, guess we'll never know how that phrase ended up in an English email in possession of the Russian special services, who would never fabricate things because they're Good Boys.

Director's cut is good

Moscow can't quit running illegal cover officers because it's an article of faith based in nostalgia for the Cheka's early foreign operations, as well as an understanding of all society as fundamentally vulnerable to subversion activities (ideological diversion, sabotage) the illegals could conduct.

Every O5 goes to a staff college and is like, "my favorite grand strategy book is 'Oceans Are Now Battlefields' by Cpt Limey Genocidaire, Esq,'" until a few months later when they change their mind & say, "tactics are key based on my reading of 'Tanks! Tanks All About!' by Count von Kriegscriminal."

This kind of smart, walkable, mixed-use urbanism is illegal to build in most American cities

"Sicario" is a good film because the screenwriters delve into fun questions of authorities operating covert action, but it appears to have joined "Robocop" and "Starship Troopers" in the pantheon of "do you understand the point of cinema?"

it wasn't smart policy and it's performative to hyperventilate about a single app but refuse to pass a privacy law or regulate data brokers, most of whom are selling far more U.S. consumer data to foreign intelligence
