For those who don't know, SHA-512 is a cryptographic hash function, and what hash functions do is convert an original input into a unique gobbledygook output.
The function is one way in that you can't directly recreate the original input from the "coded" output.
They're used for message/data verification, and what this means is that Lin's password is apparently truly connected to Kappy.
It's not the people. It's the religion.
I have Jewish friends, and when I started to learn about the intricacies of their belief system, it's pretty scary.
For example, during passover, there's ritualized recounting of all their plagues and persecution and remembrance of how everyone is out to get them.
It's not a "love your neighbor" religion. It's "us vs them", and it tells Jewish people that they absolutely have to maintain dominance or they will be persecuted again.
Could be partly organic as Putin says, but it feels like more than just random shilling/dooming. I'm seeing the same kind of messaging about Trump across platforms..."it's over", "he gave up on you", "it was doomed from the start". Seems like a coordinated effort to totally demoralize the opposition.
And obviously they finally zombified /r/conspiracy, so it makes sense that they'd want to neutralize this site too. Free speech and investigation is their enemy right now, so they're going all out to stop it.
Timecode indicated is as found on the twitter video.
Pay attention to the eye/nose/mouth triangle in relation to the ears. Also see how the front of the face shifts on an otherwise stationary head.
Looks like a deepfake morph to me.
Interesting. If Lin doesn't have the file, then why give Lin the password to give to us?
Maybe this is to communicate the password to the file holders without flagging them? Or maybe the key master doesn't know who the file keepers are, so it needs to be a broadcast?
Compression artifacts don't look like a smooth slide or morph.
