Next up are 3 rounds of 2 factor authentication. They time out each after 30sec. If you miss one you go back to the captcha. Get ready!

To be clear, I’m not blaming people for not maintaining their website, most academics get no credits from funders and their institutions to maintain these essential resources. But there are mitigations to safe guards the data for the community

Police sources actually say the robbers were postdoc trying to raise funds for prelim data to go in their faculty applications
