It is very possible that IH began it all; do you think so?

Many posters there went on to do it elsewhere, some also still post there, etc. When I say "began it all," I mean the specific "civilian" hunting techniques of online creation of identities, the scouring of arabic forums and the use of translation and steg software. I am not talking about the expert work of Steve Emerson and others like him or any official government intel work where such tactics are also used.

I wonder if the work of Rita Katz and the Galts and others who are more out in the public now predates IH or not.

7Seas basically got its start at IH since some members hailed from IH. Also, some IHers have worked at the site we cannot mention. In addition, Jill St. Claire knows IH very well.

I know we have some very savvy current TM posters who also post at IH; you all know who you are!

All in all, cheers for IH's alneda forum! It has a great history. Credit where credit is due!

Oops. Scratch some of what I wrote previously about IH. It seems some hunters started doing things on their own outside of a "forum" persay before 911. I didn't know that.

Aren't some of these guys also Freepers?
