The problem with these types of assassinations is that the provably incompetent commander may get replaced by someone who is reasonably competent.


UAF just snitched on themselves hard


Nah, this is old news. Just poor/careless opsec. You’re known military personnel in an active military conflict and you’re publishing your runs? Not good!

Especially against an infosec-superior opponent. This was someone dumb, naïve or misinformed.
