CTIL Files Scandal Worse Than Twitter & FB Files

Day by day it’s becoming more clear why there has been widespread, tyrannical censorship, disingenuously called “Civic Listening”, by social media, government agencies, mainstream media, and mainstream medicine, allowing us to hear only one side during the COVID ‘plandemic’. While many have been reporting for some time on the political interference and how governments have been working in lockstep, we now have the evidence in bright purple crayon.

If you only have five minutes to spend on this, go here to hear Greg Reese’s video.

A whistleblower has come forward with an explosive new trove of documents, rivaling or exceeding the Twitter Files and Facebook Files in scale and importance. They describe the activities of an “anti-disinformation” group called the Cyber Threat Intelligence League, or CTIL, that officially began as the volunteer project of data scientists and defense and intelligence veterans but whose tactics over time appear to have been absorbed into multiple official projects, including those of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

The CTI League documents offer the missing link answers to key questions not addressed in the Twitter Files and Facebook Files. Combined, they offer a comprehensive picture of the birth of the “anti-disinformation” sector, or what we have called the Censorship Industrial Complex.

The whistleblower’s documents describe everything from the genesis of modern digital censorship programs to the role of the military and intelligence agencies, partnerships with civil society organizations and commercial media, and the use of sock puppet accounts and other offensive techniques.

“Lock your shit down,” explains one document about creating “your spy disguise.”

Another explains that while such activities overseas are “typically” done by “the CIA and NSA and the Department of Defense,” censorship efforts “against Americans” have to be done using private partners because the government doesn’t have the “legal authority.” In other words, the government is fully aware that these activities are illegal for them to do so they outsourced to private companies similarly to how they skirted the ‘gain of function’ moratorium by simply outsourcing it to China to be done. 

The whistleblower alleges that a leader of CTI League, a “former” British intelligence analyst, was “in the room” at the Obama White House in 2017 when she received the instructions to create a counter-disinformation project to stop a “repeat of 2016.”

Over the last year, Public, Racket, congressional investigators, and others have documented the rise of the Censorship Industrial Complex, a network of over 100 government agencies and nongovernmental organizations that work together to urge censorship by social media platforms and spread propaganda about disfavored individuals, topics, and whole narratives.

The US Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Information Security Agency (CISA) has been the center of gravity for much of the censorship, with the National Science Foundation financing the development of censorship and disinformation tools and other federal government agencies playing a supportive role.

**Comment**

I believe the same tactics have been deployed in Lymeland for decades.  This topic should concern us all and we should demand government transparency and an investigation on this issue and vote for those who promise to uphold our inalienable rights, because believe it or not the situation could get much, much worse.

SUMMARY:

• Despite the overwhelming evidence of government sponsored censorship, black holes have existed in the timeline, including the author(s) of the plan, until now.
• New documents, training videos, presentations and internal messages which rival the Twitter Files and Facebook Files in importance, show that the creation of CTIL began in 2018.
• In 2019, US and UK military and intelligence contractors (including DHS) led by a former UK defense researcher, Sara-Jayne “SJ” Terp, developed the sweeping censorship framework. These contractors co-led CTIL, which partnered with CISA in the spring of 2020.
• Work done by these groups led to masking censorship within cybersecurity institutions, which pressured social media platforms to stop all dissenting opinions and to stop content from going viral.
  • Calling it the “Hogwarts school for misinformation and disinformation,” they saw themselves as superheroes. CTIL needed programmers to pull apart info from Facebook and YouTube.  For Twitter they created Python code to scrape data.
• The favorite weapon of America’s ‘intelligence’ apparatus is using fake claims of disinformation; however, Universities are in on it as well proving it was always about power and lucrative but ineffective and dangerous mRNA “vaccines,” not public health.
• CTIL created a law enforcement channel for reporting disfavored content and did research on those posting anti-lockdown hashtags – keeping a spreadsheet with details from their Twitter bios.
• CTIL engaged in offensive operations to influence public opinion:
  • During CTI League brainstorming sessions for “counter-messaging for things like encouraging people to wear masks,” statements were given such as “Repetition is truth.”
  • “You’re not trying to get people to believe lies most of the time,” Terp said. “Most of the time, you’re trying to change their belief sets. And in fact, really deeper than that, you’re trying to change, to shift their internal narratives … the set of stories that are your baseline for your culture.” 
    • Interestingly, experts are now stating that the COVID injections are changing the personality of many recipients which has been equated with lobotomy due to the spike protein, along with other COVID measures represents an intentional attack on the human hippocampus where autobiographical memory and individuality originate – ostensibly making people suggestible, forgetful, compliant, and unable to think critically and creatively.  Source
  • The same report also called for a form of “pre-bunking,” to “preemptively inoculate a vulnerable population against messaging,” suggesting that DHS-funded Information Sharing and Analysis Centers could be used to promote such pre-bunking.

• The whistleblower states CTIL’s ultimate goal “was to become part of the federal government.” In our weekly meetings, they made it clear that they were building these organizations within the federal government, and if you built the first iteration, we could secure a job for you.”
• Roughly 12-20 active people involved in CTIL worked at the FBI or CISA.
• Terp and colleagues wrote AMITT by adapting a cybersecurity framework developed by MITRE, a major defense and intelligence contractor that has an annual budget of $1 to $2 billion in government funding.
• Terp later used AMITT to develop the DISARM framework, which the World Health Organization then employed in “countering anti-vaccination campaigns across Europe.”
• The AMITT framework calls for discrediting individuals as a necessary prerequisite of demanding censorship against them.  It also calls for training influencers to spread messages and for getting banks to cut off financial services to people who organize rallies or events.
• The documents give a clear picture of a highly coordinated and sophisticated effort by the US and UK governments to build a domestic censorship effort and influence operations similar to the ones they have used in foreign countries. It also strongly suggests the framework was originally created by military contractors.
• Journalist Matt Taibbi has already been defamed and threatened with perjury charges with a five-year prison sentence, presented the documents to Congressional investigators on Thursday, November 30 and promised to make them available to the public.  Go here and scroll to approx. 16:30 to hear Shallenberger’s 5 minute testimony, followed by Taibbi’s testimony.
• The journalists also created a documentary film called, “The Censorship Files.”
• The NY Post reported on the Congressional investigation and questions if free speech will triumph in time to prevent the feds from secretly rigging the 2024 election.  It also reported that journalist, Shellenberger urged Congress to abolish CISA.
• Sadly, federal censorship could still run rampant until the Supreme Court rules on the government and social media censorship case Missouri v Biden, (now called Murthy v. Missouri) which is perhaps the biggest 1st Amendment ruling since the 1971 Pentagon Papers case.
• The whistleblower told the journalists that CTI League leaders did not discuss their potential violation of the First Amendment.

“The ethos was that if we get away with it, it’s legal, and there were no First Amendment concerns because we have a ‘public-private partnership’ — that’s the word they used to disguise those concerns. ‘Private people can do things public servants can’t do, and public servants can provide the leadership and coordination,’” the whistleblower said.

FBI and CISA did not respond to the journalist’s request for comment.  Gee, I wonder why?
