of how CIA agents in Iran were using a shitty 2000s style HTML website as a cover for communicating
Part of why the CIA went running to Amazon Web Services with a long term IT services contract. Amazon is amazing for the CIA because they host something like a third of the global internet and there is nothing suspicious about a device anywhere on earth connecting to an ingress point on the AWS network. Amazon even owns Goodreads and IMDB, both of which are less jank or suspicious than some year 2000s html website.
Anyone else remember the whole thing about r/LakeCityQuietPills in the early days of reddit? It always reminded me of the CIA contractor stuff a few inlaws of mine did back in the 2000s.
Maybe a bit unrelated but this reminds me of that story of how CIA agents in Iran were using a shitty 2000s style HTML website as a cover for communicating. At least to me it looks so amateurish it may as well have been called “CIAinIran.net”, I mean compared to the real name Iraniangoals.com for supposedly a football site, like holy shit that is some intern level nonsense given what we know of the internet these days.
That story is a real treat btw, that and CIA agents that were killed in China years ago.
