“The best defense is a good offense”

Crossposted from Techrights

“Generally, the idea is that proactivity (a strong offensive action) instead of a passive attitude will preoccupy the opposition and ultimately hinder its ability to mount an opposing counterattack, leading to a strategic advantage.” -Wikipedia

A few weeks ago we took everything up another notch and we’re nowadays able, or so I hope, to produce better articles (not just more of them, quantity is never the sole goal). Judging by considerable growth in traffic, this is paying off and we’re even getting more whistleblowers to offer us more exclusive “scoops”. This year our main challenge is keeping up with all those “scoops” and finding a way to cover them all in a timely, impactful fashion.

The desperate acts seem to have backfired spectacularly. As a friend of mine put it yesterday (we spoke in person near Openshaw), we have nothing to worry about anymore because it seems clear that the other side is already acting out of sheer desperation and it cannot escalate any further. Worse yet (for the other side), the death threats are being investigated by another investigator now. Maybe this can culminate in the arrest of the fraternity of lawyers, a notorious clique from London’s SLAPP industry. They keep self-incriminating in a number of ways each time they send threats and demands mirroring the illegal communications sent our way.

Their principal client has, evidently, become increasingly irrelevant (social control media posts without any “likes”, not even one blog post per month) and maybe lost his job because he thinks burning effigies of living humans is pleasurable.

This week we have several surprises coming. Stay tuned.
