When John Scott-Railton, a researcher at Citizen Lab, was contacted by someone claiming to be interested in his work, he was immediately suspicious. He decided to play along and found himself in a game of spy versus spy.

John said I should watch this clip. Wow. I'm impressed. Not everyone has a chance to say "yeah I got a spy on me and you can watch it on RU-vid."

@Simple_Jackass Год назад

Yeah, pretty rare experience. Insightful. Because look how lackadaisical they were during this operation, they clearly weren't used to facing ANY sort of resistance on this level, that's how easy their jobs have gotten. They didn't even use a real company for cover, they just made up a name lol.... this was no small fish, and to be honest, Israel is a huge problem anyway, a MAJOR problem. But that's not a RU-vid comment type of conversation lol.... :))

Tom Scott directed me to this clip and I must say: well played! It is, however, frightening to have these activities going on at you, or around you - and your last paragraph says it all…

John-Scott Railton. Now known as one of the coolest guys on the Internet. You rock, John.

@bitbrain3468 3 года назад

Soooooooooo.... you made a neck tie camera... and equipped yourself with other listening devices. You called in a journalist and a videographer. But... you didn't think to bring an umbrella?

@willmanning3819 3 года назад

Absolutely agree, what a funny group of people geniuses like Mr. Railton are lol

@kelleyeidem667 2 года назад

Gosh it looks like you're trying to derail the conversation by putting down Scott Railton for getting caught in a rainstorm. How long have you worked as a paid shill?

People in power have used retired and ex Intelligence officers to engage in operations against dissidents. This has been going on for a long time, the Kings Men, so to speak.

He wasn't the worst spy ever, just too old school to keep-up with the technology of the present.

It's still interesting to find out that UofT's Citizen Lab got the attention of NSO.

@shooshx 2 года назад

A guy with an obvious microphone and literal green and red cards asking you direct questions in a meeting in a restaurant. Jeez, that's some advanced 007 techniques right there. You were never under surveillance. You were just answering direct question. And what was the point about this hidden camera? we never got to see anything from that camera. Fluff.

@marcodarko6941 3 года назад

That is an understatement. I often think about their levels of infiltration and operation in society and it is astounding to say the least. Decades of pay to play and selling out the country day after day is the way of the "progressive" left.
