a notable from last bread. and how it is relevant for the current bread:

 

a shill chatbot analysis - including relevant q posts V2.0

 

V1.0 of the research:

>>4346883 pb

 

look at the attached q posts.

The highlighted text explains the behavior of the spam chatbots that are constantly deployed here.

my experiment is described here:

 

here i trolled the spam chatbot with a reply:

 

>>4345440 pb

 

and what do you know?

it gave me an automatically generated text pasta reply:

>>4345586 pb

and posted another 4 posts with a random delta that is in the range [10-30 minutes]:

>>4345586 pb

>>4345666 pb

>>4345825 pb

>>4345962 pb

 

exactly as q told us more than a year ago!

What they did manage to do during this year is to update their automatic post pattern to be triggered by a reply. Notice that the bot posts a first "common drive post", like q called it, and the subsequent 4 posts will all tap into this one.

 

To summarize, lets get back to the q post.

 

similarly to what is written in the q post, the spambot uses a 5 prong pre packaged injection, only this time it has a precursor post serving as bait. After an anon takes the bait and replies, the bot searches for "negative" keywords ("bot", "r2d2", "spam", "shill", etc). If it found these words, then the 5 prong pre packaged delivery is injected, meaning 5 automatic posts are inserted, with the first one auto generating the other 4 posts at random designated times with deltas in a range of 10 to 30 minutes. Note that all 4 posts are linked to each other, forming a chain of posts with a common driver (root).

Then, as q said, "shills log and send new info back to ASF for instruction." with ASF probably referring to the APACHE SOFTWARE FOUNDATION.

see attached snip taken from:

 

https://www.apache.org/foundation/

 

Also as you may or may not remember, Q used "APACHE" as a signature, and told us to dig it. An anon found out before that it is connected to the Securedrop whistleblower honeypot fiasco, but it could have multiple meaning with one of the being the ASF, or in fact the ASF can be connected to securedrop as well (see attached q snip).

 

Manual script inserted by a human operator:

 

Last bread I played a little trolling game with the spambot. I exposed 3 of his lies on purpose, to see if in fact there is a human operator that can edit the next automatically generated reply, before it gets posted, in real time, via a script. "Trolling is fun".

 

Here is the experiment:

 

  • trolled it once:

>>4351198 pb

 

and received a manually inserted script.

>>4351259 pb

 

  • trolled it a second time:

>>4351407 pb

 

and received a manually inserted script to an automatic template.

>>4351463 pb

 

attached are the snips of the second trolling and reply that included the manual insertion.

 

my conclusion: there is a human operator that does exactly that, he can manually interupt the automatic generation of posts and either pick a different one or insert a specific line.

 

current automatically generated posts:

>>4443067

>>4443078

 

a current multi prong injection:

 

>>4443095 driver post

>>4443104 automatically generated from the driver

>>4443108 automatically generated from the driver

>>4443120 automatically generated from the driver

>>4443132 automatically generated from the driver

here is more on how the spambot operator manually edits posts on the fly via a script:.

 

The eperiment included debunking some of the bots "verifiable facts" and monitoring the replies. Here is the experiment:'''

 

  • trolled it once:

 

>>4351198 (You) pb

 

and received a manually inserted script.

 

>>4351259 pb

 

  • trolled it a second time:

 

>>4351407 (You) pb

 

and received a manually inserted script to an automatic template.
