This is wild. In October 2024, I was able to review chats in almost real time from a Signal group comprised of dozens of Nazis in Europe, the US & Australia. They were calling for coordinated strikes against Jewish institutions, migrant camps, government buildings and other targets on 10/16/24 1/6

For the UK and the US, you obviously have to follow @hanrahan.tv , @popularfront.co , @awinston.bsky.social and @ckd.sh as well as @jennefer.bsky.social and @decoherence.media , for Germany @affeu.bsky.social and @thilom.bsky.social , for Brazil @micheleprado.bsky.social and Romania Diana Mesesan

A lot has happened between 2021 and today: In 2023, @linaverschwele.bsky.social, Diana Mesesan, @awinston.bsky.social and I started looking into the sadistic cybergooming scene. @washingtonpost.com, @wired.com and @recorder.ro.web.brid.gy joined us and we published together 03/24. shorturl.at/XM0ou

Four years have passed since then and @maxhoppenstedt.bsky.social & I have just published our newest piece about the German member White Tiger and how he allegedly pushed Jay Taylor, a 13-year-old from the US, into hanging himself. It's the cover story of @spiegel.de print magazine this week.

New piece about Com/764! But beforehand – credit where credit is due: The first time I heard about 764 was from @hanrahan.tv in November of 2021. Jake had just learned that Angel Almeida might have been a member of a group with that name and that their members "get young girls to cut themselves"

No Zero Hora de hoje entrevista exclusiva com o pesquisador canadanense Dr. Marc-André Argentino @maargentino.com que esteve no 🇧🇷 em dois seminários sobre ameaças híbridas emergentes (como o Extremismo Violento Niilista) no campo P/CVE, um na IEA-USP e outro conosco do NUPVE-MPRS. Fundamental

The Sin@is Project of our Center for the Prevention of Extreme Violence at the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Rio Grande do Sul has won 1st place in the Public Prosecutor’s Office Best Practices Award.

✨ Palestra incrível do projeto Sin@is - NUPVE-MPRS- na linda cidade de Santa Rosa/RS, no dia 11/11, durante o XVIII Simpósio de Direito Contemporâneo, coordenado pela Dra. Bianca Diehl, com apoio da FEMA e das Faculdades Integradas Machado de Assis.

Amazing days full of exchange and learning for the P/CVE (Prevention and Countering of Violent Extremism) and CT (Counterterrorism) fields in 🇧🇷 with the brilliant Canadian researcher @maargentino.com Today was the International Seminar of the Center for the Prevention of Extreme Violence- MPRS

The 1st International Seminar on the Prevention and Combating of Violent Extremism and Online Terrorism in 🇧🇷 was incredible. A full day of learning and exchanging experiences with colleagues who, like me, work on the front lines. The lecture by Canadian brilliant researcher @maargentino.com

Very much looking forward to giving the key note tomorrow at the University of Sao Paulo. Thank you so much to @micheleprado.bsky.social and Pablo Ortellado for their invitation. Special shoutout to Michele for her collaboration in researching and sharing deep insights into Brazilian NVE networks.

It is striking to think that most people have no idea how much he has already helped our country, nor how much we have worked and studied together with other friends, quietly, day and night, to prevent tragedies.

In November, we will have the honour of welcoming to 🇧🇷 (IEA-USP and NUPVE-MPRS) one of the world’s foremost and most brilliant researchers in the field of radicalisation prevention and the Countering violent extremism (P/CVE).

In 7 days (July 18), my book "QAnon: From Conspiracy Theory to New Religious Movement" is going to be published. It's grounded in 5 years of digital ethnographic work in QAnon milieus. I never thought my PhD research would be relevant 8 years after QAnon emerged. www.routledge.com/QAnon-From-C...

There is a lack of understanding about this space and it behooves those working in it to understand it better. the threat landscape has shifted and so much we shift along with it, adapt, learn about it and then report about it.

Those of you falling for the click bait elements attackers leave behind should know better, than to fall for their trolling and having you publish click bait reporting or reporting filled with slurs.

It is important to remember these kind of attackers put on a performance, there is a script they follow and part of that script is trolling journalists or leaving ironic items in the hope someone in the media will bring on the Streisand effect to further spread their attack and be immortalized.

with the transcription now done, it is time to read the writings and the footprint of this attacker. T here is a lot to cover and I will have something on this incident next week. The case is more complex than what we can see on the surface, there are traps they want you to fall for.

I had a long conversation with journalist Paula Ferreira about the exploitation and victimization of minors in digital environments. I recommend this reading for all parents and caregivers, and to always pay close attention to the signs. Do your part, because there is no silver bullet.
