I also feel, by the by, like "privacy engineer at Google" is the wrong job to have if you run a successful anonymous political shit talk account on the side but fail to be successfully anonymous. Can you sense someone who has been rapidly compounding his Ls? Eager for the next writhe.

In this case it literally took seconds to get to a name, and then another couple of minutes to find several clear connections between the account and a specific person with that name.

And of course the app is so glitchy @lexialex.bsky.social can't even appeal her suspension readily. Will be interesting to see whether Team Bluesky prioritizes fixing this bug.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

Basically if you want to find someone who prematurely praised Bill Kristol over the last few months just ask yourself: "Who is a liberal who seems to disproportionately hate the American left and who seems indifferent at best about the Middle East?"

Al Jazeera coverage is really good too.
Viewer tips: If you're looking for Iran news on mainstream TV, BBC right now is SO much better than any of the US outlets.
Dramatic, and should be studied in journalism world.
