I feel more safe yet less safe.

Scary stuff. Makes me want to use a vpn for everything. Then I'd be trusting my privacy with them though...

Xkeyscore can crack VPNs now.

The "source" for that image on that article leads to the page I already went to, which does not have the supposed press release.

Also:

For those of you wondering where we got the press release: I called the Suffolk County Police Department for a statement, and they emailed it to me.

So she called them, and they made a "press" release that for whatever reason only she can see? Sounds like bs to me. The font on her image isn't even the correct one, and it doesn't say who sent it to her. Plus, that source that I posted earlier (by Huffington Post) says that no one visited the house. I trust a reliable news source over some blogger who wants a ticket on the hype train.

This entire story sounds very unlikely.

Noticed, The police department answers they have to answer a formal complain which is treated as must-dealt due to the infamous effects found from some publications. Normally, Regardless the nature, exposed material is normally treated as archival purposes or being abadeoned.

The force works quick to stop rumors due to the prism effects and security issues. I think the operation is crazy in general but from company, it can be serious that which must be checked first.

Am I the only one who noticed that there's no proof of this ever happening?

Did anyone actually check the Suffolk County site?

It seems the more one looks into this, the less true it becomes.

Good. At least someone noticed. I was sick of seeing all the other posts that were believing it blindly.

I already posted a HuffPost article that said that no one visited her, and I posted a link to the Suffolk County site which shows that the "press release" was fake. Of course the blogger claimed after she got called out that the "press" release was released to only her, even though it is not addressed to her in particular. Plus, the photoshop sucks as she used the wrong font and forgot to include the name of the person that gave it to her, probably since impersonating a police officer is illegal...
