Seems the feebs have no problem using software and technology that they would prosecute others for using.
While the article mentions that they have caught pedophiles with it, one has to wonder, considering the usage of more than one federal agency to pursue individuals and specific groups for political and personal motives, exactly how far they have gone and are willing to go to snoop into information that is rightfully none of their business.
The article is somewhat lengthy. Not surprising considering the complex topic. I do wish they would just list a few of the most poisonous, malware laden websites to stay away from. That’s all I want to know, not the history behind the sites.
The Feebs own TOR don’t they?

CWII Spark — More domestic espionage SHOULD breed more distrust.
My question is when will it come out that the things like “child porn” are planted on the computers for the feds to “find”?
(Yeah, that thought is a conspiracy theory... isn’t it!?)
Not a geek, so I could be wrong
Only if they’re really, really small.
So they caught some pedophiles, huh?
By the same token if they’re able to snoop in peoples computer files, then they are also capable of planting files to incriminate people. What a slippery and dangerous slope.
Make the feds mad, and they will plant child porn on your computer. This is SOP. Very effective.
Wow. Just wow. So the judge, who admitted to being ignorant of the real methods used to gather the intelligence, just throws out the 4th amendment without ceremony.
The government literally designed and deployed malware. They're no better than a Russian hacker or some Chinese teenager scraping passwords from popular sites with brute force attacks.
This is heartening in one aspect: the government is outright proving their inability to get through security layers meant to obfuscate traffic. Now, if you're browsing child porn sites, you deserve to be thrown in jail, but the fact that they're netting innocent users of Tor is disgusting.
Your best bet is to use virtual machines to browse, apply MAC address spoofing and change your MAC pools on your virtual hardware as often as possible. Oh, and of course, keep your damn software up to date!
