However, Jared Holt, a senior researcher at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, points out that in terms of wilder rumors about .edu and .gov email addresses in the leaked lists, “the source for this claim was not legit…after spending the morning with what materials I could halfway assess as legit I am sad to report that this is a real snoozer.”
come on man, read the article lol
those are not the .edu ICE is looking for, unless for recruiting purposes

Why would anyone use their real email on 4chan? I wouldn’t touch it without at least a proxy or two and a vpn.
I’m having orgasmic convulsions like when my prostate gets rubbed during blowies
Heard about this just a few hours ago, and have been laughing ever since. This is going to be brutal, there are people who registered with .gov e-mail addresses. As the use of 4chan has been cited to me as potentially disqualifying people seeking security clearance for government, police, or military careers, this hack single-handedly has the potential to torpedo thousands of edgy bois in one fell swoop.
I’ll never understand anyone that uses their school or work emails for social networking.
I mean, is there even any verification? Or could I just register as bigboners69@harvard.edu or potus@us.gov?
Just wondering, what org specifically asks for 4chan use?
I’ve been told that for clearance above reliability that social media use becomes an issue. 4chan was specifically cited to me by the person with whom I spoke. I’d assume that this means any/all alphabet government agencies, but Army was all that I heard about specifically.
“Do you browse or use 4chan?”
“No.”
“OK, good, because you weren’t advancing beyond this stage if you said yes.”
Unregrettably I don’t know how that community works but wouldn’t 90% of 4chan users say they don’t use 4chan?
Sure, but lying during a process involving security clearance would essentially hang over their head the entire time that they used the credential as a means to get work. It’s not like lying about whether or not you like the food that someone served at a dinner, it sticks.
Dang, now I have to go outside to find white supremacists.
Twitter and Fox News are just a click away!
Did you get banned from Truth?
I goddamn well hope so
… You can register on 4chan?
Good
