Anyway, I've been sitting on a plan for a little while to deal out some karma - involving some ML, a camera, an SDR board and a Raspberry Pi.

If your strategy makes as much sense as your writing, you're definitely going to prison.
What is the illegal part?
prison might be the nice outcome.
Note I'm making a lot of assumptions here on the validity/veracity of the story.
There is a company registered that commits the following mobile ads fraud: * The buy targeted ads from Google, served on YouTube targeting small children and clients of a particular carrier * When you click on the ad (even if by mistake) you find that you are subscribed to a game service and immediately charged a small fee (5 euros) via your carrier (DCB). You may or may not see a chrome window open and close. * If y…
I consider myself savvy, use an adblocker and don't click on obvious frauds. Yet it happened.
There's no practical use case for it except that it looks cool. I don't plan on making it useful either, instead I'm gonna implement all kinds of awesome looking but useless eye candy stuff. But it's a good excuse for a quant to get into graphics programming.
I really need to work on how it generates though.
I'm calling it Yokel Answers right now.
Hello World, My mom's a textile designer, contracting with large companies, but somehow not getting to use any fancy tools they. She says design software existd, but it's pretty expensive. At the core, she's making plaids - a black-and-white pattern (2d grid) corresponding to vertical and horizontal threads being above one another, and color schemes (2 arrays) for the vertical / horizontal strings (in most cases, doe…
It's always nice to hear how much it helped people and removed the problems the previous version had - bonus points if it's for a small business or a single person rather than some giant enterprise org. I hope one day to actually be able to produce software that can benefit people that way. All I seem to do recently is write software that gets killed off because politics all while dealing with poor quality code from other teams and it's really demoralising.
I would love to know if anyone has a site or something where these stories are documented!
There is no analytics. No ads. It just sits there, costing a few $ in hosting and doing it's thing. It's been running for years, just for the sake of it.

what does "illegal" have to do with "going to prison" when fighting top players in a known corrupt system? prison might be the nice outcome. Note I'm making a lot of assumptions here on the validity/veracity of the story.
Obviously would not have pursued this matter if I wasn't a fairly well-connected person and Covid-19 restrictions made available the time to do so.
The veracity of the case can be trivially verified as I filed nearly everything electronically thus have receipts with digital signatures. A singular court decision was also served digitally because an enraged judge wanted it served instantly right after an ex-parte phone call didn't go the way he had thought.
