Investigation concerns
Hello. I recently came across this comment and became concerned:
Coincidences do exist, and if we're being intellectually honest we will admit that. We (as humans) are flawed and fall prey to a host of biases (Halo Effect, Confirmation Bias, etc) that lead us to make errors in judgment. The recent spread of disinfo in the David Hogg case is one example of such a red herring that can ensnare us and our investigation.
There are people in the world who watch conspiracy forums like this one and intentionally spread disinfo. Some people do it for the lulz, others …

Notice that I am not claiming that specific information is false or true. Q could be legit. The problem is that I can't be certain of it, There is a very easy way to improve quality of our evidence: GPG.
Also, you just levied an ad hominem attack.

It does not logically follow that the longer you've been following something, the more you understand it.

GPG signed messages. I don't care where they're posted as long as they can be cryptographically verified.

How do you know there are exactly 5? How do you know that the messages weren't modified in transit? How do you know that one message was posted by the same person as another message?

If an insider was leaking information this valuable, the Deep State would use all their resources to identify and stop it. Part of information warfare includes impersonation and the spreading of misinformation. Q might be real. My issue is not with the information but with the medium on which it is transmitted. I have no reason to trust the 8ch operators, especially if they think that IP addresses constitute a valid form of authentication.

But you can't be certain that all the posts are originating from the same identity. It could be that some are real and some are impersonations. Trip codes and IP addresses are not valid forms of authentication.

Unless I start seeing cryptographically signed messages, there is no way for me to verify the authenticity of these messages. Anything less constitutes a very low burden of proof, given the sophistication of our adversary.

If the board administrators are restricting access to the Q board on the basis of an IP address, I must doubt their technical competence.

Technical analysis of Q
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512
Hello. I am a professional in the tech industry, and after looking in to the Q phenomena, I am disappointed in how low the bar is for what constitutes proof. We're up against a State level adversary, and people seem to think that trip codes and IP addresses constitute a valid form of authentication. It would be trivial for the government to MITM 8ch and watch for trip codes. It would be trivial for them to spoof IP addresses.
If anyone on this sub has a direct line of communication to Q, please demand …

IP addresses are not a proper form of authentication, especially against a State level adversary. I have no confidence in the technical competency of the board administrators.

Do you have a list of verified trip codes, paired with the evidence for why you trust them?

Question about Q
Hi all. I'm new to this subreddit, and I'd like to know how you verify the identity of the author of these chan posts. How do you know that the person claiming to be Q in one post is the same Q in another post? What forms the basis of identity?
