This is legit, this thread deserves more attention.
A mysterious hacker group by the name “The Shadow Brokers” claims to have hacked the Equation Group - a government cyberattack hacking group associated with the NSA, and released a bunch of the organization's hacking tools. The hackers are also asking for 1 million bitcoin (around $568 million) in an auction to release more files.

“Attention government sponsors of cyber warfare and those who profit from it!!!!” the hackers wrote in a manifesto posted on Pastebin, on GitHub, and on a dedicated Tumblr.

In February 2015, Ars Technical dubbed The Equation Group "the most advanced hacking operation ever uncovered." According to Kasperky, the "Equation Group" is a threat actor that surpasses anything known in terms of complexity and sophistication of techniques, and that has been active for almost two decades." While Kaspersky Lab stopped short of saying it’s the NSA, its researchers laid out extensive evidence pointing to the American spy agency, including a long series of codenames used by the Equation Group and found in top secret NSA documents released by Edward Snowden. The Equation Group, according to Kaspersky Lab, targeted the same victims as the group behind Stuxnet, which is widely believed to have been a joint US-Israeli operation targeting Iran’s nuclear program, and also used two of the same zero-day exploits.

Don't understand.

I saw the auction offered free proof giveaways, what "auction file" gets opened by the hash?

Considering the naming conventions of the files, it's a safe bet that we'll never get the key for the auction file, considering whoever is releasing this is most likely auctioning it off. the free file is presumably a sampler.

What sounds more likely: that the NSA stops spying so all other spies stop spying, or that all other spies are spying, but they are statistically likely to use cisco networking equipment so all spies need to be good at getting where the information is

this is not going to do anything to the "NSA".

the worth of the NSA, their equity, is in their ability to continue to innovate and do the best applied mathematics to crack the hardest problems.

These are just products of those efforts, but they are not the life essence of the NSA. they'll be able to make more, and better.

Their essence is mathematics.

i just wanna make computers fast, dude. not everyone shares my passion, but it's just so hard for me to remember exactly how little people understand about mathematics (they probably think computing answers is real math). it's not about computing an answer, it's about identifying the right variables.

the nsa is simply the best at what they do. look, i'm not here to try to teach ten years of education to a couple of arrogant dunce caps in a few paragraphs what real math means. and this is probably gonna be the last time i give you the time of day, so before i sign off just know that the ability to learn is there, but the willingness to learn is a choice.

No, Ed's saying because TAO burned all their C&C servers after, well, him happening Just In Case, a nice side-effect was also burning these guys' access out (temporarily, because he thinks it's probably .ru).

I guess I lost a bet, I thought it might've been .cn.

are you dumb? he should have just created a dictionary and checked if the key was in it.

>>56113402
we just dont shit out threads every hour on things that clearly arent progressing. This shit started here, migrated to pol, where it got retarded, and we dropped it for the week until snowdog came back to actually say something.

>the banks being run on AIX machines developed by a dying company

Remember that one thing about how the IRS and multiple other government agencies as well as banks were still using Windows XP as their primary OS.

>IBM is dying
you realize commodity garbage like x86 servers and thinkpads weren't their entire product lineup, and never made them any money in the first place, right?
besides, what the fuck does this even have to do with my statement? IBM's bottom line isn't going to magically make shitty Windows malware run on z/OS, AIX or Red Hat

>Remember that one thing about how the IRS and multiple other government agencies as well as banks were still using Windows XP as their primary OS.
good thing your transactions and data aren't being handled and maintained by the shitbox Optiplex fleet in the back office of your local bank, right?

How do we use some of this shit?

They're trying to say it's gone through an antistylometric tool designed to defeat attribution.

I don't know if that's true. Depends on the antistylometric tool. My money's on them just being foreign, as it's more likely to be someone not from .us: false-flagging themselves would serve no point whatsoever here.
