The D-Day post does appear to be a LARP. Hopefully some people with the necessary technical expertise are actually trying to work on the decoding, though. I put absolutely nothing past controlled opposition, including injecting some LARP bullshit into genuine efforts.
I don't think they are larping, just for telling you to download translation software?
You can download the databases and use google translate offline, and if you really are scared that the internet would be jammed then that is something you might want to do.
It's not like they are spamming all the time for attention. They are however doing it every now and then, and when they're not trying to get people to join they are digging and posting continually themselves. Either way you shouldn't help them unless you know what you are doing, and in which case you will just check it out for yourself.
I get the feeling that a few people here have completely decided that they are larping. I can't do that.
Well the D-Day post advises everyone to use google translate to reach out to foreign allies in the event that the internet goes down. Does that even make sense?
Well, as someone else explained. Internet going down does not mean that it's completely down because that would be impossible. But it would make the indexed world-wide-web disappear and what would be left is something like the deep-web.
You would have no access to Google's services, but you would have access to other people.
I still believe that this is absolutely last resort for the people in power. As other people pointed out, this would crash the global economy.
