[Rubin Abdi]

This discussion is going on now in #noisebridge...

14:35:55 < corduroy> a special agent from the fbi just showed up- says
the chinese are using the nb tor exit node
14:36:05 < corduroy> Wanted to speak with someone in charge
14:36:19 < corduroy> Had to explain to him the consensus process
14:36:19 < yesac> ask them to leave
14:36:28 < corduroy> He left.
14:36:36 < yesac> https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Noisebridge_Tor/FBI
14:36:37 < noisebot> [Link Info] title: Noisebridge Tor/FBI - Noisebridge
14:36:39 < corduroy> It was one giu
14:36:46 < corduroy> guy*
14:36:48 <@Evil-Bill> Sit him down with Mike Kan.
14:37:04 < corduroy> He told me to look up the "Mandian report"
14:37:13 < yesac> you have to be insanely careful when talking to
federal agents
14:37:16 < corduroy> There is a "Serious chinese threat"
14:37:21 < corduroy> I was... holy shit
14:37:28 < yesac> they can put you in prison basically at their whim
14:37:38 < yesac> because of the lying to a federal agent law
14:37:39 < corduroy> He asked for my name, told him, "You don't already
know?"
14:37:48 -!- iphelix_ [~iphelix at unaffiliated/iphelix] has quit [Ping
timeout: 276 seconds]
14:37:50 <@Evil-Bill> hah.
14:37:55 < yesac> thanks for taking this
14:37:56 <@Evil-Bill> No no, that's the NSA, not the FBI.
14:38:06 < blueminder> haha
14:38:07 < corduroy> pffft...
14:38:13 < teratoma> you should disable his door code
14:38:31 < dnasf> i think last time this happened it was two agents, and
someone gave them a tour
14:38:31 < corduroy> Hahaha, you know kim let him in
14:38:44 < blueminder> regardless, it seems like there's alot of govt
focus on tor very recently
