(This is probably my last words, since I’m now a danger to the security of China :) )
I think everyone in privacy communities have heard about an infamous joker named “TheAnonymouseJoker” who spread comments against the GrapheneOS project. This article clarifies his motivation for writing those things, from a person works in the same industry as him.
I analyzed the content of TheAnonymouseJoker’s post, beside spreading misinformation about GrapheneOS, he also praise Chinese hardware, Chinese phone, and:
98% Chinese people approve of their Chinese government.
Which is the only thing I found correct.
So we know that TheAnonymouseJoker is working for the China government. This is already said by some people.
But why he has to spread misinformation about GrapheneOS, interfere with the personnel of this project?
We know, GrapheneOS is used by “journalists”, people who “fight for free speech”, “fight for human rights”. These “journalists” can only say bad things about socialist countries (for example, whenever its Fall, they will write a post: “Hanoi’s fall is beautiful, but foul!”, this is same for China, those “journalist” even argue on how bad Beijing is and why it should not be China’s capital). You see, those “journalists” are very smart when they are generating misinformation, but they are not smart enough (and don’t have their time) to do a research on what phone and software they should choose. TheAnonymouseJoker found this weakness, he crazily tries to spread misinformation about GrapheneOS, to make those stupid “journalists” stay away from a secure operating system, use CalyxOS and whatever insecure “degoogled” phone, backdoored Chinese phones, and that’s good for China’s security since the “journalists” phones will lose control or explode whenever the government want…
Sun Tsu already said: If the enemy is united, separate them. If we cannot attack the enemy with our army, separate them and attack the pieces.
TheAnonymouseJoker’s other posts, guides are trashes, we don’t need to care about them here.
Writing is hard, I want to say more but I can’t currently puke out words. You can ask questions, this might make me puke words I haven’t puked here. I will not reply to TheAnonymouseJoker’s comment, since I already know what he will say. Below is the view of Vietnamese people on the “journalists”:
I think you guys have already heard about people who “fight for free speech”, “fight for human rights”, or “journalists”, “fight for civil society”, “fight against Internet censorship”. Those people mostly target socialist states: my Viet Nam, China, … and Muslim states. Basically any state that do not under the control of USA. They spread misinformation about how human rights are violated, how the Internet is censored. For China they even talk about why Beijing should not be the capital (!) They don’t have words about how the country is developed, they only have words for bad things about the country. For example, in the Fall, they can only write how Ha Noi is foul. From then on, they considered themselves “social critics” (!)
As a person living in Viet Nam, I can confirm that most people here rejects the “journalists”. “Most people” means adults with jobs, they don’t care or they are against the “journalists”, they teach their children to keep away from those “social critics”. They know who are “social critics” and they are disgusted with them. Students who haven’t found what they can do to effectively stop those journalist often do personal attack/trolls on the Facebook page of “journalists”. For example, they ask the cringe Viet Tan organization: “Today is 30/4, are you happy?” “I have video about “cong an danh dan” (when writting without diacritics, Viet Tan thought “cong an danh dan” was đánh dân - “police hitting people”)” and then they send a video about a police playing piano (đánh đàn)
When covid 19 appeared, many Vietnamese working in USA and Europes have to escape those countries and fly to Viet Nam. Now we know where is human rights. Definitely not USA. Not europe. I guess the situation is same for Chinese people. Don’t have any information on this.
What I do here is analyzing the content of TheAnonymouseJoker’s posts. When I saw he say 98% Chinese people approve their government, it popped up in my brain today that TheAnonymouseJoker is separating disgusting “journalists” from a secure operating system. Then those “journalists” will get their device hacked by the Chinese government when they came to China. Is that right?
