scottsdad Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 A show on tonight about the UAE data theft called "The Trick". Looking forward to it as I know a guy who worked in that team - he has retired and moved to Hong Kong now, but I remember him talking about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just sabre rattling but they did withdraw it in London recently. They possibly want something in return for the money. They see the Tory party donors getting rich on the back of their donations. The bog roll is recyclable probably worth £2 million,the whats in it for me crew need to up their game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many road closures planned. Train staff threatening to go on strike, funnily enough getting into work won't be any trouble if you start early enough but getting home could potentially take hours, not that employers care as long as they get the full shift out of you. I live near Victoria Park and use the expressway near enough every day. Thankfully I'm WFH, but the road closures, trains being off, additional traffic being punted onto the already gridlocked Dumbarton Road and prospect of protests is making me absolutely resent this whole thing. If I had money I'd fly somewhere sunny for about three weeks and just work from there. It's going to be brutal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to it as I know a guy who worked in that team - he has retired and moved to Hong Kong now, but I remember him talking about it. I went to UEA and though I don't know the people involved, I was disgusted by the number of journalists and paid off Exxon "scientists" who pretended they didn't know the technical nature of the terms like "trick" used in the emails, and went on a full blown character assassination despite knowing it was unfounded. It was a reverse of the the "MMR causes autism" scandal, where they promoted a clearly bogus and dangerous message by a fraudulent and corrupt scientist. Hope the programme does the righteous thing.
