The Hunt for Red Noodles
I work as an elder and hospice caregiver, which I am oddly passionate about. I can love on them shamelessly and no one complains about my codependence. It's a win-win situation. Many of my caregiving colleagues complain about the repetitive questions and, sometimes reactions, of the elderly, especially when those patients happen to read the newspaper, especially with the current downward spiral of our country — as if these people haven't lived through enough horror... I love my dementia peeps, but sometimes wonder if there's a Guinness Book World Record for how many times an hour a dementia patient can repeat the same question — it's got to be in the hundreds. At least with small children, they ask different questions. Dementia patients will get stuck on one short question and ask it until you can interrupt their train(carousel) of thought and successfully redirect their attention. That carousel is pretty manic sometimes. A couple days ago, I picked up my mail from the post office and drove over to the nursing home to take (let's call her "Miss Daisy") Miss Daisy out for a drive. Before we took off on our road trip, to the end of The Road and back, in our landlocked little town (Juneau, Alaska), I set my copy of The Onion down in front of her. Over our two-hour excursion, tiny Miss Daisy read that front page at least a dozen times and each time she would snicker, giggle, and guffaw, then put it down on the dash board and, a minute later, discover it anew. I think it was the best afternoon of my life. We don't often hear them laugh and when they do, it's the sweetest thing you've ever heard. ... Thank you, thank you, thank you, for the really important work all of you do. You make the world a better place.
I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that.
The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one.
This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.
Our mighty military hardware

But the whole “Dear Leader” vibe
really casts a pitiful pall.
It screams: His daddy didn’t love him
and his d*ck is really small.

still trying to figure out this social media thing @eff.org would love to see if there was a plan to geo-locate the data or have an upload portal to drop collected data for processing. I have worked on some POCs for similar crowdsourced geo-tagged data ingestion.
This image shows the tabular data from the RayHunter webserver showing the capture name(s), date started, date of last message,size(bytes),PCAP download, GMDL download, and Analysis Results. Currently I have 0 IMSI catchers or Cell Site Simulators identified.

Got my EffOrg/RayHunter up and running tonight. Hoping to get more folks into this project. I want to see if I can collect some location data along with the traffic to enable crowdsourced IMSI catcher locations. www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...
