The Great Social Divide

 The Great Social Divide of 2020.

 The Social Bubble.

By Dominic Alvieri, @AlvieriD

The Great Social Divide of 2020.

Stock markets closed at or near record highs on Black Friday one day after a record amount of people are struggling from food insecurity. The unemployment rate remains historically high according the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The truth is no one actually knows the exact number due to skewed logic and the what data you are excluding. Federal minimum wage is still $7.25 per hour.

A MUST READ.

Definition of divide provided below. 

Divide (noun) A wide divergence between two groups producing tension and hostility.
Those who have and those who have not.

A sampling of the unemployment lunacy.

The numbers vary between 12.5 and 51 million people currently unemployed in the last few months.
Which number is accurate now?

What does this have to do with cybersecurity or technology?

It's Not Fight or Flight, It Is Food or Phone.

With food banks across the country providing records of numbers of people this Thanksgiving, is the BLS number correct at only 12.5 million unemployed? Depends what numbers you are using and who you are excluding. Is the person who has lost or didn't even qualify for unemployment counted?

There is no denying the visual evidence.

Pictures tell a different story of the actual situation.

Form state to state in this great land people are struggling and dealing with food insecurity.

The federal reserve is pumping massive amounts of liquidity into the tock market and has created not only an artificial bubble of massive proportions, it will create social inequities for years to come.

Every major news outlet has covered the growing crisis across the nation. 

Millions seek help across the country.

Thanksgiving 2020 has been a struggle for millions of Americans who are looking to just put food on the table.

Meanwhile the rich keep getting richer...

CNBC snapshot of market records on Black Friday.

The Federal Reserve has pumped in records amount of liquidity into the stock market hoping for an economic turnaround. Corporations and business are investing, closing unprofitable locations or units and laying people off now. Walt Disney just increased the amount of people they are laying off to 32,000 people.

The jobs available are at ridiculously low pay rates while stocks are at all time highs and shareholders are rejoicing. When will the average person rejoice?

Tens of Millions of Americans are Struggling During a Record Bull Run.

The Great Social Divide during stock market records.

Forward Looking?

The stock market is a forward looking mechanism, or so the story goes, of the economic situation going forward approximately six months. Corporations are laying off with complete lack of empathy.

Other than the medical and technological fields that are hiring, many corporations that are hiring are paying below $15 an hour. That would suffice for a second job and not as a primary income.

That is the big sell that there are plenty of jobs available. There does come a point when people will realize that they are starting back with nothing and it will take two or three of these jobs to fulfill their families needs.

Jobs are easily eliminated when the need to create more shareholder value arises. That is a constant.

Is it sunny or raining in Philadelphia?
Is it sunny or raining everywhere?

Shareholder Value at All Costs.

It is not the worker you are laying off that is the problem. The problem is lack of leadership in your company. The cost is the average person's life you are playing with to enrich shareholders. 

The Great Social Divide continues to grow...

If you had any stocks or Bitcoin in any accounts before or during 2020 it has been an incredible year.

For the tens of millions who are unemployed now they are asking themselves when will they ever get back to normal? If you are starting to invest at record highs it may be a dangerous time. It will take the average person months to ever have anything? What about a smartphone or even food?

How is it everyone saw the low of 2008 and not one person can see this huge Social and Economic Bubble forming now?

The question is not that millions are unable to eat this Thanksgiving and without income, those are facts. Who will be able to buy Amazon's new Wi-Fi router at $599 or an iPhone...or anything?

Are We Going to Leave Everyone Else Behind?

How much is that new must-have tech?

If millions of people are unable to eat today, how can anyone buy a new phone, or anything next month, or six months from now?

Black Friday sales will be skewed. People with money are buying while millions are unable to even eat this holiday season. People who can't eat do not have income, a retirement account or stocks are not buying anything.

If I am unable to eat today, I am certainly not buying new technology, or anything for that matter tomorrow, or next month, or...

It is no accident that the definition of divide is placed here again.
 

Divide (Noun) A Wide Divergence Between Two Groups Producing Tension or Hostility.

Millions are starting back from zero with "jobs" paying between $7.25 to $15 an hour and no assets and many are unskilled at the moment to fill the better paying jobs. A waiter is not going into the medical field in three to six months. 

READ BELOW THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE FOR MOST.

How many years will it take to build back ones lost income and life?

The Great Social Divide is widening like a crack between tectonic plates during an earthquake.

15 to 50 million people in the United States are staring back from ZERO. It will take more than six months to buy any durable, let alone any non durable. 

How much is that new iPhone again?

2021 is not going to be a walk in the park for the average American. Mr. Biden has a difficult challenge going forward, as do many around the world and here in The United States of America.

Please don't call it the divided states. People are aware of the Pandemic and the tens of millions struggling, aren't they?

Love at First Click

 Not Just at Dating Websites Anymore.

Social Networks and Platforms are Now Weaponized.

By Dominic Alvieri, @AlvieriD

 The Dating Scene online during the pandemic is as horrendous as it has ever been.

Online Dangers Have Escalated Beyond Dating Websites During the Pandemic.

Is anyone connecting with a real person initially?

The Pandemic of 2020 has crystalized the need to differentiate between what is real is what is not.

Did that Tweet come from that person?

Did that group just incite people to "ki** or sh*** someone" in a post or video?

Is that woman/man who they say they are?

Photos are sent to entice a response from the lonely online. 
The person behind this account is not interested in a 40, 50, 60...
Actual photos sent via Match.

Who are you really?

The lure is overwhelming. You are online at the sites in question because you are lonely, tired of being alone during what seems to be the never ending year of the pandemic. 

There he or she is contacting you. Attention from a person you desire, or so you think.

People believe what you show them online. It is a dangerous assumption.

Innocent lives are falling victim to evil people online. 

The reports are real and lives are being lost and ruined in all age groups. It is not just limited to online dating anymore. That is horrendous now. The age of account manipulation is at its peak and we must inform and educate to attack this enemy.

Recent FBI Press Release below. The dangers have escalated during the health crisis.

Online dangers have escalated during the pandemic, not just on dating sites.

People need to be aware of the dangers and protected immediately.

She (he) looks amazing. 

You are in love with the first click before you know who she or he is.

Or what she or he really wants. This is even more dangerous when it comes to safety of the innocent online. The young or unaware at any age are at great risk. 

The lonely in all age groups are at great risk.

In an ongoing investigation, The CyberSecurity Show alerted and forwarded to the FBI several Instagram and TikTok accounts with fake profiles, posts and pictures communicating with minors including video communications and SMS.

Updates pending conclusion of Federal Investigation.

The Social Bubble. What is real online anymore?

The Social Bubble.

What is real online anymore?

All accounts, post, videos and communications are able to be hacked or come from a malicious person behind the message. Extreme caution is needed with impulse reactions to media online.

The Political Bubble online?

Fake accounts and groups are easier to spot and track.

If you have many followers, your views become a weapon online and weaponized when you use social media to publicize and forward those views.

The Online Dating Bubble?

Malicious accounts have proliferated as has the second wave of the virus. Online dating does not discriminate in age groups. The young and the old that frequent dating sites are blasted with initial contacts and pictures that invoke a reaction from the lonelyhearted.

They are on traditional social media platforms in different forms, versions and context in the example below from accounts on Facebook that reached out to me this past September.

Sex still sells and people try to sell it everyday.

These are all examples from my old Facebook of unwanted initial contacts.
I deleted my own Facebook in October.
Political accounts, unwanted contacts and scammers reigned during the last month.

The dating sites have similar photos with the intent of invoking an impulse reaction and establish contact. That is when the problems start. There is not limit to the ruthlessness online.

In this exclusive below, the Match account needed money on the second day for an emergency.

This was pre-virus. This account has since been deleted. I would not be surprised to see the photo floating on another account somewhere online. 

The stories continue today with the pandemic version instantly tying the crisis to a financial need. It has exploded along with the second wave of the virus around the World. Be on high alert if your looking for a date online, not to mention a friend.

Find out who is behind the account before you promise any emotions or funds.

Actual Match Fake Account Photo Profile Used.

It isn't just dating sites anymore. Every post or video can come into question if not authenticated.

 People have been falling in love with the first click on malicious posts as well as misrepresented accounts with fake pictures online. The dangers have increased exponentially with the increased pandemic time online. 

Every post, video or tweet may have a malicious or fraudulent connotation behind it. 

Proceed with caution. The election is over and we may be nearing the light at the end of the covid tunnel, but we are only at the toll gate of the social bubble of social media manipulation.

Cybersecurity Analyst Deletes Facebook Account

 

 I Deleted My Own Facebook Account on 

October 4th, 2020.

I deleted my own Facebook account on October 4th, 2020 

                                                                

The complete frustration was evident on nearly everyone online.

The constant bombardment of social and political fraudulent and fake posts, videos and Tweets with disturbing content and malicious calls to action have to be taken seriously. This is my way of getting the word out that it is time to fight back. I am continuing online, just not on Facebook until better safeguards and limitations are put in place.

Many need to be brought to justice for all types of cyber crimes online.  

2020 has been the worst year for social and cyber crimes and we have not reached Thanksgiving.

The best and brightest are working on solutions and tracking the criminals. The backlog of accounts that need to be reviewed, closed and traced just from the political chaos must be overwhelming. 

FBI Press Release Warning below of other serious crimes that the public must be aware of and must be stopped at all costs.

  

October 15th, 2020 FBI Press Release Warnings.

Social media and platforms have become exponentially weaponized.

Everyone has been distracted with the political madness and forgot about the other threats that are constantly attacking us and our children online.

Reuters recently reported that during the last two months leading up to the election, Facebook accounts and groups called for actions to "shoot or kill" 8,760 times, or 146 times a day. 

8,760 Times, or 146 Times every single day according to a Reuters report about Facebook.

Tweet after Reuters reported 8,760 incidents on Facebook.

In the week leading up to deleting my own Facebook account there were so many malicious calls to action and horrible people that it literally make me sick to my stomach. 

How can we fix it if we don't do anything about it? Move, change, act. Do something.

What was the point to wait until someone follows you all the way to your door and home in the real world? Just remember nobody wins in a fight, but sometimes you have to fight.

 It's just online, that post, message or account can't hurt you. 

There are evil people behind evil accounts. Bad people exist in the real world and they are online.

Now is the time to inform, educate and protect yourselves and your families, Right now. 

The video below is an old promo for my, "The Cyber Show" on Facebook Live. I deleted my own Facebook account in protest October 4th. The Cyber Show Live, Blog and Channel are still online.

                             The Cyber Show on Facebook Live? Make Facebook Great Again.

My own Facebook account was hacked more than once. I still have an old account on Facebook I was unable to reacquire and had to open another new Facebook account that I just deleted. A mild problem in comparison to some internal reports surfacing now. 

There have been so many issues on Facebook during the pandemic and the last two months that several internal sources had said that several Facebook employees have quit over frustration of not being able to do anything.

I just deleted my own Facebook account for the same reason. I'm tired of just pointing out the issues and accounts and not being able to do anything else about it. It does take time and we have to stay positive and actually do something about it. Not just talk about it anymore. 

Inform, educate and protect yourselves and your families now.

Black Lives Matter campaign at Amazon.

 Amazon Corporate Hiring Policy

Black Lives do Matter, All Lives Do, with or without a felony.

By Dominic Alvieri, @AlvieriD

Black Lives Matter campaigns have been everywhere this year.
What exactly does that mean?

Amazon ran a great Black Lives Matter campaign earlier in the year. Or so we thought.

Upon further investigation it turns out that only certain lives matter, not all when it comes to corporate hiring policies.

Amazon is not alone.

How can a campaign matter if it excludes a huge portion of the population?

The largest incarcerated population in the World also has the largest felon population outside of prison seeking gainful employment. Amazon is always touting jobs but will never hire a felon.

The Cyber Show blog on Blogger, by Google.

The campaign began showing the true colors with the announcement of the Bezos Academy for underserved children. Amazon will never hire anyone who has made a mistake in the past. All lives matter but only to a point with certain companies.

What about their children?

Can the child of a felon attend the Bezos Academy Amazon?

What about working for Amazon? That is a no. Corporate policy, sorry.

Please buy from us, we support black lives. What?

CNN Report of the new Bezos Academy.

With the largest incarcerated population in the World, The United States also has the largest population of released felons back into society. Amazon is constantly touting jobs and new warehouses, but the truth is they will not hire a Black, White or any color felon. Sorry, doesn't matter how long ago the crime was or even what happened. Amazon does not care what or when it was.

But you can still buy from us!

We have a policy.

Does having a policy make it right?

Amazon has a strict corporate policy.

There is a new Bezos Academy preschool, tuition free for underserved communities.

Can all black children attend, even if their mother or father has a felony record?

As of press time, Amazon has not returned a request for comment.

Corporate hiring policy is very clear...

Amazon will never hire a person with a felony record. Period.

Where can the largest incarcerated population work?

The jobs ordeal is continuing with politicians and wall street pushing below living wage jobs and Amazon will not even hire you. So where can they work?

The frame here is that 25 years ago you could have made a mistake and you paid your debts.

Or so you thought.

What ever happened to paying your debt to society? Amazon carries that debt forever.

Many companies and people do. 

What illegal thing have you done now? Prior felon.

What illegal things have you done in 25 years? 

Now people can do horrible things for 25 years and we elect them president.

The last three lines should make the point clear.

SEO For Better Please, Not Worst.

 

 Susquehanna University maintains disturbing meme   Suckabanana University                 on search engines.

  By Dominic Alvieri @AlvieriD

                           Prestigious Susquehanna University is above this meme and bad jokes.

Nestled in heart of the Susquehanna Valley in central Pennsylvania is prestigious Susquehanna University. A diamond in the valley.

Malicious memes and jokes have hidden risks finally being realized by more than just the cybersecurity industry. CNN, The New York Times and The Washington Post have been covering the events as they unfold with social media weaponization which comes through many avenues and dark alleys of the internet.

The university is well above this modern technical association of a bad joke that is now weaponized online. It readily shows up available to associate with and link via search engines to the universities website itself and separate searches of other keywords to Kappa Delta Sorority. 

As of press time no one from the university has returned multiple requests for comments.

 

 Is it just a joke? A meme? < ?>SEO_SU</?> 

The CyberSecurity Show on Blogger

For years it has been maintained that is a joke and just a meme. Memes and jokes with undertones like this are in poor taste at the very minimum standard of decency. With modern connectivity to the internet available with nearly every device overall internet usage and abuses have been soaring during the pandemic of 2020. COVID-19, viral attacks, ransomware and social abuses online are all reaching epic proportions as we wait for final election results.

So have the dangers. 

A malicious meme or bad joke now online can reach the most innocent and at risk.

You have to break the frames and differentiate between what was shown and pushed to you and what it actually is. 

Is it a video of Alice in Milan or a manipulated image created by Bob of Alice in Minsk?

It was actually made by Trudy in Moscow and emailed to Bob in Manhattan.

That impulse reaction will engrain a lasting memory node, if you will. You will remember Alice in Milan even though it was made by Trudy in Moscow and emailed to Bob in New York City.

The CyberSecurity Show on Blogger

You will remember the context of what was intended and it may not be the reality of the situation.

It can influence the unknowing either politically or socially and abuse and entangle you. 

It has to be addressed right now in every way, shape and form.

We are literally disconnecting from reality.

Hashtags and keywords are basically how Google, Microsoft and every search engine lets people find you, your business or your university. It does not just appear. Google and Microsoft did not place this on your site for you on their own accord without technical direction and consent. It is a created association made by you, your business, your university or the person(s) or business that is in charge of your website(s).

That goes for fraternities and sororities as well.

                                         SEO for fraternities and sororities needs to improve.

What is SEO anyway?

SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. <a>SEO_101</a>

Google and Microsoft can help you remove them if anyone is ever unsure of how to do so.

The hashtag below is displayed on GramHum which is an Instagram viewing page that displays dubious content with the following examples. The hashtags and keywords have many bad examples.

One of many found that purport this kind of activity. Is this suitable for a child? Is it suitable period? 

Susquehanna University is not involved with any of the websites, pages, hashtags or links other than the current SEO linkage to its website and domain (TLD).

This is an example of what those keywords and hashtags represent and link to.

Instagram viewer with few posts but dangerous content.

Notice the same post in the snapshot above and below. 
Was this created only for a political trolling campaign? 

Edited for disturbing content.

If a post or tweet is added and viewed by millions to disinform or misinform and then deleted, does it count? Yes it does. You distributed non verified malicious content.

My research has shown that several sites are being maintained for years with only a few posts being counted every year. One GramHum landing page only shows 24 posts dating back since the pages inception. A tactic used during the election. Distribute it and then delete it.

 I didn't know or it was only a joke or meme is the excuse.

GranHum dotcom is registered with PorkBun LLC, a registrar of domain names that has had hundreds of reported coronavirus scam websites that it has registered this year. #CyberSecurity

This viewing page group has been placing and deleting content on various sites and show only a minimal amount of posts.

                                 SEO is search engine optimization. Is this optimization acceptable?

The suckabanana keywords and hashtags lead to dangerous areas of the internet with undertones and deviance that many dare not fathom, let alone witness in any form.

Do you know the Banana Fungus? It is real, and bananas may not survive.

                                       Banana fungus is real. So are disturbing banana memes.

The keywords and hashtags have many hidden dark places on the internet that the university does not know about and is not related to, responsible for or associated to in any way, shape or form other than the keyword and hashtag placement for search engines. It is just the first layer of search engine optimization that someone is in control over and will rectify the situation. 

 Google will gladly be able to assist. You can probably Google it.

                                                                 Search results on Bing

The Federal Bureau of Investigation has been investigating the dark underworld of keyword and hashtag associations and leads for many years. Many lead to the dark web. Then the links and layers get deeper. The are becoming more topical and dangerously mainstream today.

     This is an official tweet regarding the current social media threat to children during the pandemic.

Children are our future and we need to protect them. The "suck a banana' franchise of tags and associations are being hashtagged with kid themed tags including "hard for kids" and others.

The combination of what appears to be a benign "hard for kids" hashtag that may imply a difficult math or science problem, is tagged along with deviant hashtags.

Gamers and gaming sites are another lure.  

Banana rooms and hidden areas that are clicked on may place your child in harms way with no knowledge if not monitored and aware of the dangers. 

Many memes and online distribution channels have become dangerous social weapons.

The Washington Post published an article of political memes Friday, November 6th, 2020. 

Notice the "who made this" comment. Who made it indeed. 

The internet has become weaponized, not just social media.

Dangerous memes and accounts are spreading a different kind of virus that has infected everyone who has seen any of the malicious memes, videos, posts and tweets. 

Courtesy of The Washington Post .

Several photos have shown up on both political and sexually themed sites.

Lurking with bad intent below in nefarious parts of the internet.

All three above are suckabana hashtag memes cropped for content.

The three links above are all associated with the suckabana franchise of keywords and tags that only gets worse if you follow the links and leads. Several variations of the hashtags and keywords exist and have multiplied at an alarming rate in 2020. 

The Pandemonium in the Pandemic.

 

Hidden banana rooms and different searches yield other nefarious lures.

Weaponizing social media is not only dangerous but it is destroying the very foundations of our democracy and lives and striking many down to the core. 

 

We all can do better. We all have to. All of US.
