I just noticed that, without notifying me in any way, Twitter has silently deleted my tweet of a video of the American neo-Nazi group Patriot Front, thinking the recording was over, saying "Seig fucking Heil". The video got at least 2.4 million views on Twitter https://t.co/YFQidWWqtW — PolitiTweet.org

RT @theintercept: Leaked chats show Russian ransomware gang discussing Putin’s invasion of Ukraine https://t.co/9KEjcTCNZI by @micahflee — PolitiTweet.org

On February 21, someone posted a surprising message. The "boss" had disappeared and couldn't be reached, probably because of "too much attention to the company from outside." Conti didn't have enough money to pay salaries, and everyone was asked to take 2-3 months vacation https://t.co/eB43cWknNs — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
The chats are also full of disgusting misogyny, homophobia, and even the age of girls in child sexual abuse content they like, which one of them openly calls "child pornography." Reading these chat logs is basically like reading Russian 4chan https://t.co/GTfANVqH3F — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
They also had an obsession with @briankrebs, a journo who covers groups like Conti. They follow his work closely, and they kept joking about how bad it would be if their chats leaked to him, which is funny because he's been analyzing their leaked chats https://t.co/ZpDfSsKh1f https://t.co/Omg7WOgl4Y — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
They even discussed the rumor that @Pornhub was planning to block Russian users from its service. "They will take away our last joys!" This wasn't actually true, PornHub is still accessible in Russia https://t.co/UIreyXqVM5 https://t.co/jvFUZr15MG — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
The chats include the very early days of the West's economic sanctions against Russia. The Conti team was already feeling it. Apple cut off sales to Russia, and the value of the ruble was plummeting https://t.co/ElPxvTmJnU — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
In early Feb, 75yo far-right populist authoritarian racist Vladimir Zhirinovsky was hospitalized for covid. They talked about how sad it would be if he died, and also conspiracies about why he's hospitalized and if he's even sick https://t.co/mku2mWbXIy https://t.co/oPTgvVEv37 — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
When "weldon" pointed out that Zelenskyy is Jewish, the chat broke out into antisemitic jokes. For people supporting an imperial war under the pretext of "denazifying" Ukraine, they sure do share a lot of Nazi beliefs https://t.co/GVC212DcgG — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
"Patrick" also continually said Ukraine was run by a "neo-Nazi junta"-another Putin lie. There are neo-Nazis in Ukraine, as there are in the US and Russia, but none serve in government. During WW2, Nazis killed family Zelenskyy's family members https://t.co/jApocpqk6x — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
On February 24, when Russian soldiers started the invasion, "patrick" said: "war was inevitable, ukraine made an application for nuclear weapons" This was one of Putin's lies he told in his hour-long speech justifying the unprovoked invasion https://t.co/6SA8dirpJB https://t.co/XHEVjyAAVS — PolitiTweet.org

Conti is an independent criminal enterprise without formal ties to the Russian gov, but they appear to have been approached by FSB at least once related to hacking a @bellingcat journalist, looking for info on imprisoned opposition leader @navalny https://t.co/cCpW2XO8Dk https://t.co/W3b8OAADmM — PolitiTweet.org

These victims include hospitals and other healthcare facilities in the middle of the pandemic. Conti took down the Irish healthcare system, costing Ireland €100 million to recover from the hack https://t.co/25joIYvLvY — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
Conti is the most successful ransomware gang operating today, and it runs essentially like a corporation with salaried staff. Last year Conti reportedly extorted at least $180 million from its hacking victims. — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
They also repeat Putin's lies about Ukraine being run by a "neo-Nazi junta," and Ukraine seeking nuclear weapons. They're also disgustingly antisemitic towards Zelenskyy, and the chats are full of misogyny — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
The messages are in Russian, full of typos, slang, and heavy use of mat (vulgar Russian profanity). We translated them to English with the help of a native Russian speaker. They candidly discuss topics like drug use, pornography, cryptocurrency, and an obsession with @briankrebs — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
In response, a Ukrainian security researcher who's currently in Ukraine leaked a whole trove of internal Conti docs including 2 years of chat logs from RocketChat and Jabber, training docs, hacking tools, and source code. I read through all the recent chat logs. — PolitiTweet.org
Micah Lee 🫡 @micahflee
After Russia invaded Ukraine, Conti announced its "full support of Russian gov," warned that if anyone attacked Russia they would use “all possible resources to strike back at the critical infrastructures of an enemy.” Hours later they updated their statement https://t.co/RVFBWB4JUa — PolitiTweet.org
