This is an initial linguistic analysis of the texts from “The Shadowbrokers”, as posted on Pastebin, taken from the tumblr account. This is a qualitative analysis, looking at patterns of grammatical and orthographic errors, to examine the question of whether the author of the text is a native speaker/writer of US English. A quantitative analysis would help firm up and estimate the reliability of our conclusions. This analysis assumes that all the texts were written by a single individual.

Seems pretty obvious just by reading it..

How much you pay for enemies cyber weapons? Not malware you find in networks. Both sides, RAT + LP, full state sponsor tool set? We find cyber weapons made by creators of stuxnet, duqu, flame. Kaspersky calls Equation Group. We follow Equation Group traffic. We find Equation Group source range. We hack Equation Group. We find many many Equation Group cyber weapons. You see pictures. We give you some Equation Group files free, you see. This is good proof no? You enjoy!!! You break many things. You find many intrusions. You write many words. But not all, we are auction the best files.

All of the above? Strange site. Perhaps multiple bloggers.

Watch out for NYC824 (pages 229 & 230).

And who is this ShadowBroker and why is this news? You really should add some context to why you’re posting things and not just expect that everyone knows.

It means “All our bases are belong to us”.

This has been known for many years.

geez..... any native English speaker should immediately recognize that this text is not written by a native English speaker. It does not require any special tools or analysis to know this.
