Guys.
I have never seen elements of frazzled.rip nor have I seen evidence that this shit is real - though I wouldnd be surprised about it from what we know now about diddy and jayz and the bunch.
But I asked ChatGPT about it.
even though being the more woke engine amongst the AI generators out there, ChatGPT gave me a very intersting info about the file.
prepare yourself. it makes a hell of a lot of sense. I asked specififly, if a .rip file could be a video file. and chatGPT explained me why not. But then it came up with a hell of an explanation why somebody (e.g. Anthony Weiner) would manually CHANGE the ending of the video file to .rip
buckel up:
CHATGPT:
"Yes, the .rip file could be intentionally renamed this way to protect it from automated processes or prying eyes. If you suspect it is a video file, you should rename it to a standard video format or check using the tools above. This is a common practice to improve both privacy and security."
So Weiner changed the ending of a frazzled.avi to frazzled.rip, to hide it from all sniffers on his laptop who generate e.g. thumbnails for videos and send them even home via the web for automated file meta generation or control mechanisms like e.g. apple has them a lot in search of cp. It also hid the file in the search for videos and it did not generate a thumb in the browser. It just sat there as an innocent .rip file. To watch it, he switched the ending into .avi or mp4 or else. all by hand.
Please tell me this does not make sense.
