Oh no, someone here touches grass long enough to not know just how fucking plausible this is 😛 The internet is still a wonderful and wild place despite all the profit-driven fuckery that has been pasted over the top.
i think fascists always assume their enemies are stupid, and so they dont put a lot of effort into security
but then they forget that i know like half a dozen transfems including myself who learned how to program when we were 8 and are just god-tier at anything computer science now x3
“In remarks to the Daily Dot, a hacker from the puppygirl hacker polycule said the group targeted Lexipol because there aren’t ‘enough hacks against the police.’
‘So we took matters into our own paws,’ the hacker said.” AAAAAAH
Hell yes. This is the kind of resistance we've been looking for. Hackers working for the public instead of taking orders from Elon and working against us.
We may have the most aesthetically boring tech oligarch christofacist police state dystopia government, but at least the rebels and punk hackers are on brand
I hope they leaked the training materials for "intoxication specialists," officers who purport to detect subtle signs of intoxication in people who do not test positive for any substance, and arrest on that basis. It's junk science.
This is terrifying. Getting a DUI is no joke, even if you beat the charge you're gonna spend $10,000 on court costs. The idea that you could just get pulled over and given a DUI when you're sober because a cop was having a bad day is terrifying.
Exactly. That exact thing happens. And yet departments do not expose their training materials to any scientific scrutiny, and so far, courts have not shown skepticism for this "science." The training manual that I managed to grab online was nonsense.
Been following this story for awhile, including in depth reporting on instructions for police to pump families members for useful statements or information BEFORE revealing the reason for the visit is to inform them they shot and killed their family member.
Read the manuals and come up with ways to peacefully (or whatever) circumvent them. Someone with more time than me, please read it and publish counter offenses for the everyday person! Tag the working class so we can organize. It’s going to be illegal to dissent soon.
When I was growing up my mom said if anyone says "garbage men are bad, tell them they work for the city & have good pensions, which means they're good."
Now, Puppy Girl Hacker Polycules wear capes. If it weren't constant turmoil this would be such a rad time to be alive.
Thanks for the link. Woulda liked everything categorized so I could download specific parts and not just..the whole thing but eh. Can't have the world right?
The Trump/Musk administration is a coup attempt. DOGE is a Trojan horse with no legitimate purpose. We must unite before their plan can succeed. Spread this message far and wide.
I only had to look up one, but then the more I thought about it I decided to look up another and realized that I too, needed to look up two of them. Man, I’m getting old.
I don't know who they are, and I don't wish to know who they are. But I need them to know, wherever they are, that they are so incredibly fucking based 😤 Puppy Solidarity
Now can they get and publish the Russell Vought 180 day Playbook from the Heritage Foundation that shows what crazy crap is coming next from the Trump Admin?
I mean I’m on the ace spectrum so the thought of sex itself gives me the ick most of the time but I’m cool with other people doing any kind of thing if everyone participating is fine with it and it’s not hurting anyone 🤷🏻♀️
Yeah, but that’s a part of the reason why we fight with them and for them anyway, no? Not everyone is gonna “elevate our status” but that doesn’t mean they don’t deserve to be them if they’re not hurting anyone.
"In remarks to the Daily Dot, a hacker from the puppygirl hacker polycule said the group targeted Lexipol because there aren’t “enough hacks against the police.”
'So we took matters into our own paws,' the hacker said."
Jesus fuck that's raw. This is the best news I've heard all week.
i’m just imagining in my head a news reporter unironically reading out the words “puppygirl hacker polycule”. imagine explaining that to the boomers that still watch tv lol.
"Boomers" span many decades, and are NOT all the same any more than any other lumped together group. Find another way to spread your prejudice if you *must* hate on others to feel better about yourself.
i meant the general population of that generation would likely at least be confused by those three terms being lumped together to make a name of sorts, thought that was obvious enough but guess not…
Depends on the boomer, this old lady gets it. Didn’t we boomers invent furries, and hackers? Polycules obviously long, long predate us, but the word does sound new to me, but even then the context and word parts make it perfectly clear what it refers to. I too would like this report on TV though!
Furries don't rule, they maintain the internet.
If Anthrocon ever got attacked by a foreign power, many ISPs and websites and IT departments would suddenly be working at minimum capacity.
Not disagreeing, but the reason these manuals are not public domain is that they are copyrighted literature developed by a private company. Many public training manuals are also copyrighted. Not just police training, but all kinds of training.
The purpose of a system is what it does. it doesn't matter what the excuse is. They're not secret because they're copyrighted. They're secret because secrecy serves the cops. There's a massive industry of cop shit, much of which is secret, and it exists entirely to serve the police state.
Also important; because of the largely unexamined acceptance of private property in the general public they will accept copyright as an acceptable explanation for secrecy where they might reject direct government imposition of secrecy laws.
Which makes you wonder if that’s by design, deliberately spending more to outsource instead of have an in house training team that would have to make their work public.
It is and it's a very common tactic. The regime uses a wide variety of private security and intelligence services to evade accountability and transparency laws.
It basically never makes sense for police departments, fire departments, water agencies, etc. to have a curriculum department, printing department, etc. that developing training necessitates so all these fields use outside agencies or companies.
There are 35,000 officers in the NYPD alone, and another 15,000 other staff. In what world does an organisation of 50,000 employees *not* need or have a training department. Bet they all contract companies full of ex-officers anyway.
The idea that "copyright" can trump the public good is a disaster and should not be accepted anywhere, but especially not with something like this where we KNOW people are getting and killed for no reason, constantly.
"Its for our discretion and your protection" - or some other bs stock response like that. fr: they don't want you seeing how violent they are *or* learn how to fight back.
"I don't know what you kids are up to, but I do know one thing: laws are threats made by the dominant socio-economic, ethnic group in a given natio n. It's just a promise of violence that's enacted and police are basically an occupying army, you know what I mean?" - Bud Cubby, anarchist halfling
They don’t want us to know how they operate in case we were to, idk, collectively work with our neighbors, friends, and family to combat their efforts when they join forces alongside ICE in rounding up immigrants
this feels so relevant right now between the gay furry hackers that leaked Project 2025 data and the puppygirl hacker polycule. keep them off the planes, its not safe right now.
My trans daughter graduated with her bachelors in computer science. When she came out, our friend who also works in programming was so not fazed, and said he works with several trans women.
I mean their senior members of fucking 19-year-old like Jesus Christ unless he's done nothing but fucking scripting since he was like 12, what the hell are they going to do?
i'm not all that technically savvy compared to a lot of the trans people i've met over the years but i've still solo-developed multiple small games and have been using linux and programming since i was like 10

There are also catgirls 😌

Me, an intellectual: Puppygirl polycules are based

God speed puppygirl polycule o7
Lexipol is a big influencer - warrantless entry???
The transphobic regime is getting hacked by the transest trans girls to ever trans. You love to see it.
Wow. Usually ex-cops are one of my *favourite* types of cops. 😑
Now, Puppy Girl Hacker Polycules wear capes. If it weren't constant turmoil this would be such a rad time to be alive.
If anyone is interested lol
And I'm dying from the group name 😅
Yeah I can get behind that
The Trump/Musk administration is a coup attempt. DOGE is a Trojan horse with no legitimate purpose. We must unite before their plan can succeed. Spread this message far and wide.
Court case that made it to the supreme court showed that they don't owe protection to the public and never did.
I mean, when you think about it, they'd probably enjoy one of those options and really hate the other...
Y'all are awesome 💚
Step 2: hack the police
(๑>•̀๑)
I love everything about that 💕
Anyway, I too love everything about that. Real people doing real work.
i ship
I’m aware of how that woul* sound like a privileged take *if* I were a cishet christian woman with a job, family, money, and no trauma—but alas…
'So we took matters into our own paws,' the hacker said."
Jesus fuck that's raw. This is the best news I've heard all week.
Though I can ballpark what "puppygirl" means
Ok technically bunnygirl but I still like walkies and sleep on the big pet bed next to my cage.
If Anthrocon ever got attacked by a foreign power, many ISPs and websites and IT departments would suddenly be working at minimum capacity.
On a related sidenote: i once won an argument with my ex about dog training using the police K9 training manual.
Info is so very important to us all in all the ways.
"What about side by side with a hacker polycule?"
"Aye...I could do that"
Elections today GA, KS, NE, NY, WA, OK
& coming up in states from today through spring
We just flipped a deep red seat in Idaho blue let’s show this admin we will still vote & win
We can flip the House by summer
Our vote is still a biggest defense
NYPD: We are legally required to publish all of our training materiel and policies.
Private Sec: We don't allow you to share, distribute or publish our IP.
NYPD: That's fine, we'll take our $8 million contract elsewhere ...
"They are usually available to the public at low cost or free electronically."
Army training doctrine. Public. Sure, we're not publishing the specs of the F-22, but most of this does not need to be classified. More-so for police.
i really do wonder wtf attracts us all to technology like this
maybe it's as simple as it being a less public facing job that pays well, so it feels safer and more stable?
cannot tell if i am an outlier or if other transmascs also flock to furry programming in droves. we gotta do a census someday.
Some hateful people are seriously fucked.
Here's one piece of the puzzle lol!
programmers and other computer people do start early, but, like
all the furries and trannies and other assorted weirdos that the kind of skids musk would hire hate have been doing it just as long if not longer
some of the skids were kicked out of hacking grouos
i found it very surprising actually, that the stereotype is real
this is why it took them years to stand up their glorified Mastodon instance, Truth Social
they have no idea trans furries could just shut off the Internet, cuz they run the bitch.
