tl;dr it's cool and badass when your car parses your conversations to determine vehicle passengers, passengers name, locations, traveling speed, objects of interest around them, road conditions, traffic, etc. then sells it to advertisers and data collection groups

Administrative:
- We're still in the process of correcting our downstream mass-oopsie we performed. We identified over 500,000 corrupt malware samples we shared ... we accidentally prepended 'file=' in the raw binary data. Oops. We're almost done restoring all the damage we've caused. It's only taken us 8 days++--;
- All harddrive purchases from April, 2024 have been finalized. Moving forward all drives will be pre-cloned so there is no waiting period — we just mail it out. We're learning, kind of.

Good morning, evening, or night.
Instead of working today we're just going to scream out the window as loud as possible.
Thanks,
This person is lying on their resume and claiming to work for vx-underground. It makes zero sense.
1. vx-underground doesn't have contractors.
2. We don't have a security strategy
3. We don't have any sort of policies... or policy management
4. We don't do risk management, or risk assessments
5. We don't do compliance stuff. We have nothing to comply with
6. We don't do incident response
7. We don't do security awareness training
8. We don't deal with vendors
9. We don't do security monitoring, there is nothing to monitor
10. We don't do any sort of security governance, there is no one to report security governance to
11. We don't do continuous improvement
vx-underground is a free website, not a fortune 500 company.

malware means malicious software
it does not mean MyAnimeList software
Hello,
Just because you did 1 thing for me 1 time does not make you a core contributor, volunteer, or member. It does not mean you're my friend, it does not mean you can list me as a reference.
Wake up. Stop making this weird.
We've had like, 6 people now say they're part of vx-underground because they personally assisted me like, one time, 3 years ago.
It's called doing someone a favor. It doesn't mean you can put it on a resume.
Also, these companies do background checks, and when they contact me via e-mail, or Telegram, or Discord, and say "do you know this person?" and send me your resume and photo, it makes you look like a giant jackass when I have to say "I have no idea who that is"

Today the United States Department of Justice indicted Russian nationals Elena Afanasyeva and Kostiantyn Kalashnikov for violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), and conspiracy to commit money laundering.
Afanasyeva and Kalashnikov remain at large as of September 4th.
Afanasyeva and Kalashnikov are accused of laundering money to covertly fund as much as $10,000,000 to English-speaking social media companies (listed as U.S. Company-1) to sway content in favor of the Russian government.
Interestingly, the indictment states the company which received the funds is described as, "a network of heterodox commentators that focus on Western political and cultural issues". Journalists and researchers have tied this to Tennessee-based company Tenet Media ... because ... it has the exact same message on their homepage verbatim.
This media company employees conservative media commentators Lauren Southern, Tim Pool, Tayler Hansen, Matt Christiansen, Dave Rubin, and Benny Johnson.
The indictment is interesting, discusses the money laundering techniques, disinformation campaigns, and their chat communication medium ... on Discord.
Image 1 is U.S. Company-1 per the indictment. Image 2 is Tenet Media.

September 3rd, Lara Trump (daughter-in-law of former U.S. President Donald Trump) and Tiffany Trump (daughter of former U.S. President Donald Trump) had their X accounts compromised.
Their accounts briefly shilled some sort of crypto stuff. X locked the accounts within minutes.
Today TheRecordMedia released an article regarding Ford's new patent: targeted advertisements by actively monitoring and listening to passengers conversations.
It sounds bad, but reading the article it's actually x100 worse.

"why do you guys make such weird posts??"
Because we've been discussing malware, collecting malware, writing malware, reversing malware, reviewing malware, reading about malware — anything and everything malware for years.
It has fundamentally corrupted our minds

Dear gay4smellyvx,
It was a truly epic gamer move that you were cheating in Call of Duty. We're sorry for your loss.
R.I.P.
Babyvx is currently compiling. However, the compiler is poorly optimized and the estimated time remaining is roughly 6.5 months.

Dear 'gay4smellyvx'

No updates today. We're just gonna kick back, relax, and play some Elder Scrolls

One time a high ranking official for the United States National Security Agency made a post on Twitter about memes.
We sent them a private message. They never responded.
This is the video we sent:

We have performed a colossal oopsie doopsie.
Our malware ingestion system prepended 'file=' to every file being sent to VirusTotal, thus impacting AV vendors down stream. Sent vendors hundreds of thousands of botched malware samples
