Federal agents raided a NYC apartment of a former NSA and CIA employee. Ostensibly in conjunction with the Vault 7 leaks. They found over 10,000 CP iimages locally and an IRC filechat server with terabytes of data on it.
The perp's employment here.
"But it’s not clear that the government discovered anything to tie him to the Vault 7 leaks. Instead, the government seized Schulte’s personal computer and found more than 10,000 images and videos of child pornography in an encrypted folder stored on a virtual machine on the device, according to a federal complaint that has been unsealed. The federal government was able to decrypt the folder. According to a court transcript, the passwords Schulte used to encrypt child porn on his computer were the same as the ones he used to login to his bank account online; the criminal complaint says that it was “able to defeat the encryption by entering passwords recovered from a cellular telephone” belonging to Schulte. Schulte consented to a search of his phone, according to the complaint."

SIGNT was started by genius patriots that got bamboozled and hijacked by the MIC. In cowboy movies the white hats were usually the good guys and the black hats the bad. Why name something red hat? Schulte worked at the CIA for more than six years, between 2010 and 2016 as a developer, working on Windows and Linux tools “to support clandestine operations.” Before that, he had a brief 5-month stint as an NSA systems engineer, where he “administered and maintained high-speed passive signals intelligence (SIGINT) collection systems on Linux (Red Hat Enterprise) servers,” according to his Linkedin profile. At the time of his arrest, he was working for Bloomberg.

SIGINT goes back a long, long way. League of Nations.

Signt is messing with me. Now I have to buy a really huge computer. It was like one guy who broke the code, then he got a small team together. They had a small budget before they started spying on USA citizens. It is Bill Binney. A Good American, is the documentary which explains things.

Bill Binney is [solid]

Yeah, but few also understand the relevance to today's situation and pedogate. The powers of information control are vast. Binney thought he was doing the right thing.
