       @jerry Might be good for some OSINT threat intel people to investigate, at least to pick up on TTPs

       @MrMeritology @jerry I heard the notorious hacker known as 4chan is blowing up vans again. Here's video proof.

       @jerry @MrMeritology I feel like your reaction time with blocking people & defederating nazi platforms is already top notch. These folks are not playing 4D chess, they will pop up in very obvious, blockable ways.

       @MrMeritology @jerry @hacks4pancakes @MrMeritology Holy crap 4chan has devolved... It wasn't great the last time I checked that place out, but I can only see the n word so many times before I want to gouge my eyes out... Anyway, here's a list (I'm sure this is incomplete, I just don't want to look at that site anymore) of instances they were interested in.  Mostly (but not entirely) "free speech" instances and instances that promote some gross things:instances on the main blocklist"free speech" instanceshttps://outpoa.sthttps://social.076.ne.jphttps://c.im/https://freespeechextremist.com/https://pawoo.net/https://poa.st/timeline/fediversehttps://pieville.net/https://inuh.net/https://baraag.net/aboutrelay site https://relay.101010.pl/relay site https://relay.mistli.net/relay site https://relay.beckmeyer.us/

       @MrMeritology @jerry @hacks4pancakes Oh, and I only found one mention of our instance. "verification in mastodon has been broken: https://infosec.exchange/@h43z/109300005351944382"

       @MrMeritology @jerry I do not want to be a defender of the toxicity that is 4chan, but isn't this more of an intel signal than "evidence?"  Theoretically you'd see a similar signal from most social networks about now, no?

       @lythander @MrMeritology his follow up was a bit more precise - it is indeed an indicator. But it is evidence of increasing discussions about mastodon

       @jerry @lythander @MrMeritology @hacks4pancakes - So 4chan is easy to search using their own functionality (Link posted below for convenience).There's nothing going on there of any worry.Folks there are talking about Mastodon, just like folks everywhere are talking about Mastodon. (There are reports that hair dressers are discussing it in their salons for example).4chan is just another forum. Sure things come out of there from time to time, as they come out of many forums, but its not a special place.The original post by @MrMeritology shows an increase in the use of Mastodon, nothing else (of note, they're talking about the band Mastodon as well - see screenshots). Run the same word search on Reddit, on Twitter, on Facebook, on Tumblr, and you'll find very similar results. Mastodon is just the meme of the week because Twitter is the meme of the week.Here are some screenshots of discussions about Mastodon for y'all's perusal.4chan search - go through the actual posts to see: https://boards.4channel.org/search#/mastodon/gScreenshots below:

       @r3g_5z @TheGibson @hacks4pancakes @jerry @MrMeritology Thanks again for pointing this out.  I edited it to explain the context.  I admittedly don't know all of the instances and after looking at a couple of them on that list... I didn't want to dive deeper in.  Some of them are extremely gross.  Like I think fbi-visit warranting levels of gross.

       @badhorse @r3g_5z @hacks4pancakes @jerry @MrMeritology I want to make one thing perfectly clear.Channers are not welcome at hackers.townNazis get punched, trolls get starved, and we will protect the fediverse with everything we've got from threat actors.

       @PhenomX6 @MrMeritology @jerry Actually, I prefer that over the SJW, ISIS, CovAIDS, Russokraina, cloymet chainge stupidity.This whole "dangerous anonymous hackers" and "anime is either Pokemon or tenticle porn" stereotypes were at least more meme-able regardless of political viewpoint.

       @Jackuu @thegibson @MrMeritology @badhorse @hacks4pancakes @jerry exactly, we've done nothing bad to them. In terms of actual damages they're worse. You can lose your jobs, get taken into custody, lose your house and wife etc. The internet "Nazis" on the other hand? Lol, lmao.

       @MK2boogaloo @thegibson @MrMeritology @badhorse @hacks4pancakes @jerry If you see a generic post saying "don't side with kikes" and it makes you mad, it's because you know you're siding with kikes.;^)
