Proton Flock Camera Map

Proton Flock Camera Map is a ZIP-code search map of Flock license plate reader locations. Its data comes from researcher Joshua Michael, who found in November 2025 that Flock's servers exposed an access token to anyone without login, and published his map in December. His inventory lists over 170,000 cameras and 130,000 other devices, about 40% above Flock's cited 120,000 cameras. The page also covers what Flock records and cites a Washington Post review of officer misuse.

Proton hosts map of 300k Flock devices amid legal threats

Proton is hosting a public map of more than 300,000 Flock Safety surveillance devices (about 170,000 cameras and 130,000 other devices), built from an inventory researcher Joshua Michael obtained in November 2025 via an access token that could be fetched without login. Flock closed the path, later found anomalous token activity but no customer data impact, and sent Michael a cease-and-desist letter. The map is a December 2025 snapshot.

VirusTotal sizes the internet-facing PHP footprint around CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 (CVSS v4.0 9.2, session.upload_progress) using Internet Scanning. About 5.1M IPs run PHP, roughly 4 in 5 hide their version, and ~758K disclose an end-of-life branch. It gives queries that use the SSH banner to match leaked LiteSpeed lsphp 8.2.34 builds, plus mitigations.

Disrupting AI-enabled “false front” operations

OpenAI reports banning ChatGPT accounts tied to two covert influence operations using "false front" entities. The Russian "Dark Clark" operation ran a think tank (Social Research Center) staffed by unwitting Latin Americans, planted fake emails, audio and documents targeting Ukraine and Argentine, Bolivian and Ecuadorian leaders, and was rated Breakout Scale Category 5. The Iranian "Bogus Bylines" operation used seven fake journalist personas to place nearly 100 articles in online outlets (Category 4) and generated batches of social media comments (Category 2), while using inflated impact metrics in internal reports.

Inside EQIBank’s $84M seizure

Protos investigative article unpacking the DOJ's $84M civil forfeiture against Capstone Limited, a payment processor used by Dominica-based EQIBank (which handles Tether reserves), for misrepresenting itself to Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase and Citibank as a software firm rather than a money services business. The piece uses OSINT techniques — corporate registry tracing, shared-hosting IP correlation, DNS lookups, and court filing cross-referencing — to map operator Kotaro Shimogori's decade-long history running shell payment processors (ComCopious, iCanPay, AuthPay, Pan Digital Network) for high-risk clients including gambling sites and, per the forfeiture complaint, impersonation-fraud scam proceeds funneled through Chase accounts. It also details EQIBank's EQIFi/EQX DeFi token, and links Marlin Capital Partners and Deltec Bank figures to Tether's banking history, drawing parallels to the earlier Crypto Capital Corp seizure.

Chinese network laundered $1B+ for North Korea's Lazarus Group — ZachXBT

Blockchain investigator ZachXBT published a 12-part thread detailing how he spent months posing as a client of a Chinese money-laundering network to prove it laundered over $1 billion for North Korea's Lazarus Group, including a large share of the ~$1.5 billion Bybit hack (FBI codename TraderTraitor). He cross-referenced the operators' private messages with on-chain data — including a wallet receiving fees from Bybit-hack-linked addresses and THORChain bridge transfer timing/amounts matching what operators disclosed — turning chat screenshots into verifiable blockchain evidence. The laundering network converted BTC into ETH, Solana and Tron, used THORChain for cross-chain hops, and parked funds in low-volume Uniswap pools; the investigation led Tether to freeze 442,000 USDT, part of over $75 million ZachXBT claims to have gotten frozen from North Korea-linked hacks since 2022.

He ties that operation to the freezing of 442,000 USDT after identifying a laundering cluster linked to the Bybit hack and valued at more than $12 million.

Crypto Sleuth ZachXBT Fronted $350K to Pose as a Client of Lazarus' Chinese Launderers

Decrypt reports on ZachXBT's account of infiltrating a Chinese money-laundering syndicate working for North Korea's Lazarus Group, by posing as a client ("fronted" $349.7K USDC) to a contact named "Jimmy Green" to gather intelligence on how Bybit's $1.5B hack proceeds were being laundered. The piece details the on-chain corroboration methods used (matching Telegram screenshots to Thorchain swap timing, wallet clustering across BTC/ETH/SOL/Tron) that exposed a $12M+ cluster of Bybit exploit funds, led to a 442K USDT Tether freeze, and separately traced $3M in fraud proceeds to Huione Guarantee, a Cambodian marketplace later targeted by FinCEN and shut down by Telegram.

Outrider Recon is an open-source, Claude-native multi-agent OSINT and external attack-surface recon platform for authorized engagements, covering web/API, identity/SSO, cloud, secrets, and people/breach intelligence. It deliberately stops short of exploitation: active enumeration is approval-gated and intrusive validation is a human hand-off, with deterministic Python controls enforcing scope, evidence integrity, workflow state, and finding promotion around Claude skills and optional MCP-based enrichment. Output is ranked, evidence-backed finding cards (confidence/severity/handoff recommendations) meant to feed proxy-assisted testing or pen-testing rather than raw scanner dumps.

Findings are validated offline (Luhn checks, JWT decode, AWS key-shape) and via scope-checked, rate-limited reachability probes, then triaged by severity and exported as JSON/HTML/SARIF/Markdown/CSV. It enforces authorization with a required --confirm-authorized flag and a ScopeGuard that blocks any out-of-scope requests, and explicitly avoids testing leaked keys against third-party providers or exploiting findings.

Tracing Crypto in a Narcotics Investigation: FBI Charges Alleged Opioid Distributors

Chainalysis details how blockchain analytics (its Reactor tool) helped the FBI trace Bitcoin proceeds from the darknet vendor account "BarbaraWhite" — which sold nitazene-laced counterfeit pills on Nemesis, Bohemia and Abacus — through a wallet cluster to a China-based chemical supplier and, ultimately, to a mobile payment account tied to defendant Stanislav Chernyshov. The case illustrates a concrete investigative pipeline: combining on-chain clustering with marketplace data, postal records, and off-chain identifiers to deanonymize a pseudonymous crypto-paid drug operation linked to overdose deaths.
