In hindsight, we all should’ve seen this coming. The onrushing descent into a cyberpunk dystopian hellscape would only call for a totally cyberpunk response. I’m referring, of course, to Anonymous Juneteenth’s present to the world better known as #BlueLeaks, a steaming data dump on the face of the pigs that rivals Wikileaks in size and scope. This trove of 269 gigabytes of data from over two hundred law enforcement agencies has everything from emails to policy papers, department records, and, for even more fun, information from agencies including the FBI and Department of Homeland Security via their totally innocuous fusion centres. What makes the matter all the sweeter is, so far, there has been no statement denying the validity of these documents. If anything the main concern from the security ghouls is how much got loose.
At long last, we have the receipts.
