“I wouldn’t think much of it, except that the post was made using gates to hide where it came from and a tripwire to fry the computer of anybody who got close to finding who really posted it. And I mean BADLY fry.”
Whats a trip wire that fries computers?
My understanding is that hackers can make it appear that they are posting from different places (with different IP addresses). They can send the message through a bunch of different locations, like threading a string. To find out where the person really posted from you have to follow the string back through all those different locations, or “gates”.
A tripwire is a trigger within the software (or something) that detects when somebody gets close to the start of the string (where the person was REALLY at) and sets off a malicious virus to destroy the computer of the person tracing the string. It’s like a minefield to stop anybody who gets too close to the truth.
It’s a lot of trouble for a poster to go to, to hide where they’re at and who they are. Not something you’d expect from a mere prankster - especially not after supposed “pranksters” boasted about creating a fake Kenyan birth certificate with the intention of having Orly present it in court and then revealing she had been “punked”. The “punker” would have to show that they were the ones who made the claim in order for the claim of having punked somebody to be credible. They have to leave a trace in order to prove they were the punker.
This poster was not trying to punk me. This person was going to great lengths to keep anybody from being able to find who they were. In an earlier post, this poster told me that I would be the person who went to jail. They were trying to scare me into giving up on law enforcement.
