You realize that 1) the website is critical to the NSO group, and 2) you can have more than one separate/independent browser session on your computer to browser stuff on your computer?
That is exactly how watering-hole websites work, they create a site critical of the attacker.
Forensic architecture is known for years to make visually fancy stuff (e.g. the films and exhibitions which they show for roughly the past decade in the art context throughout Europe, for example at the last Documenta). For them to develope a website that uses a lot of javascript is somewhat ironic, but not surprising.

Not the freshest chip in the package eh?

Well sure, it's obviously compromised there is no point in writing that.

#34Is it me or this website is unusable with slightly restrictive javascript policies? My fans start screaming, i'm getting disfunctional menus at the bottom and a scroller at the top. I deactivated decentraleyes and umatrix, only thing is ublock and my restrictive firefox base profile.
Apologies for this — the website features some pretty heavy WebGL visualizations. I've pushed an updated version with more aggressive code-splitting and a version of the website. If you'd like, try it out and let me know if it works any better.

Not sure why that is although, admittedly, I've had little time to do much in the way of cross-browser testing. The website features some pretty heavy WebGL visualizations. I've pushed an updated version with more aggressive code-splitting and a version of the website. If you'd like, try it out and let me know if it works any better.

oh there definitely is. You see, when you talk about activism and taking a stand which is usually cried on online forums or even on the streets, people assume the police would obey the spirit of the law. Remember what happened to occupy wall street protestors?
same thing. if you are against the establishment in this part of the world, you are a target and a dead man.
heck, last year a lawyer was murdered when guys entered his home and killed him. they left and no one was found. this guy had been critical of powerful people so they took him out

How active is the armed resistance in Srinagar today?
