In an attempt to unmask anonymous tipsters, did an embattled CNN reporter use a phishing tactic to gather private information? Andrew Kaczynski appears to be a serial doxxer. The former Buzzfeed contributor and current host of CNN’s KFile has been implicated in another attempt to reveal the identity of online sources.
By seeming to plant foreign web bugs into personal emails, a common phishing tactic used to determine IP address, location, and other identifying information, new questions have been raised regarding ethical practices inside the troubled news network. A recent email exchange with an anonymous conservative group has been obtained by Media Equalizer. In the discussion, Kaczynski feigns interest in a scoop that’s being offered.
At one point, he attempts to sneak a web bug into the conversation, with the apparent goal of luring the recipient into clicking the link. Doing so would give Kaczynski the IP address, location, and other metadata included in the email recipient’s account.
Well it looks like CNN is up to some very illegal things in not only illegally blackmailing a person behind a hilarious Trump CNN gif, but CNN has now been caught tonight actually phish hacking Conservatives around the nation and conservative groups to gain personnel information through IP addresses.
Not only has CNN been blackmailing individuals to keep their free speech silent, but CNN is now phish hacking Conservative groups to violate the 4th amendment to gain personal information of individuals they do not agree with.
If you thought #CNNBlackmail was bad CNN is now violating privacy rights by phish-hacking for personnel information through IP addresses.
