#GamerGate'ers should know that the pattern of censorship & cronyism they see is mirrored at the very top. Level up:
Misc. Look-ups
" ... video game space has been so heavily politicized with a
left-leaning, feminist-driven slant," >>

#Reddit when it's a censored platform?
"4chan in general is widely viewed as a nasty sort of place for anyone not straight and male" [Forbes] >>But 4Chan's heaps more interesting

“More German tensions: Among the “autonomous systems” Treasure Map penetrated in order to create this global map, according to Snowden documents, is Deutsche Telekom, which is partly owned by the German government, and Netcologne, a regional German telecom. That’s sure to cause even more friction between the U.S. and Germany, which expelled the CIA’s Berlin station chief in July over NSA spying revelations, including that the spy agency allegedly tapped Chancellor Angela Merkel’s cellphone. Deutsche Telekom told Der Spiegel it conducted an extensive investigation after the magazine alerted it about the possible infiltration but found no suspicious hardware or data leaving its networks.”

RUSSIA / BALTIC
This some of the information I looked at today.
As usual, it's easier to just copy over where I've been than it is to try to recall.
Ran off a copy of the massive Stuxnet article because I find it impossible to focus on something long and involved, staring at a screen. Find it better to have a hard copy for mark-up and ease of reading.
At the end of my day of checking things out, I'm wondering why I've bothered running off the involved Stuxnet hacking article when I'm not a techie and really don't need to know anything in depth.
On the other hand, it's supposed to be some techie (or surveillance) big deal, so I might have to force myself to get through the information -- even if it's just skimming over it.
