  • The International Federation Of the Red Cross Has Called On the BRCS To Dismiss General Secretary

    The reason: gross and systematic violation of the basic principles of the movement. Previously, Cyberpartisans have already drawn public attention to this by publishing a list of crimes of the BRCS leadership on the official website of this organization. We also shared documents shedding light on some of the Red Cross' activities with journalists and interested organizations. About the illegal taking-out of children from Ukraine: Based on the results of the investigation, the International RC Federation concluded that the BRCS was not directly involved in the movement of children from the territory of Ukraine. According to internal RC reports, the Aleksey Talai Foundation is responsible for the transportation. However, the BRCS facilitated these actions and provided financial support (as we wrote about earlier). If Dmitry Shevtsov is not fired by November 30, BRCS will lose its membership and funding. According to our data, this could be fatal for the Red Cross in Belarus. Aiding and abetting dictatorship or humanitarian activity...? We hope the BRCS will make the right choice. ⌛️

  • How to clean Telegram before being screened?

    If you are summoned to the KGB, if your authorities require you to show Telegram, or if you are afraid of being searched at the border, it's time to check your messenger for possible "dirty laundry". ⚠️ In such cases, you should log out or hide your account for political chats and channels. But it is also useful to check the usual account, not for political topics. Suddenly an acquaintance sent a repost from an "extremist" channel or a picture/video that you have long forgotten about. Needs to be reviewed and cleaned up: 🔺 chat messages; 🔺 search queries; 🔺saved cache; 🔺 downloaded files; 🔺bots written to; 🔺contacts. This article details how to clean everything. Without VPN follow the link. Allocate at least 2 days for checking to clean Telegram well. Do not be lazy to check everything - your life and safety depend on it.

  • "The only path to freedom is resistance." Interview with a Cyber Partisans who helps in attacks

    Meet JtR, a Cyber Partisans who makes "tools" that help us in hacks and attacks. We talked about how difficult it was for him to get into Cyber Partisans, how he feels about the group now, and how he sees the future for Belarus. Difficulties In Getting To the CyberPartisans, Doubts And Volunteering Tell us, what do you do for us? I do mostly minor things: making tools that help others [in hacks and attacks], cracking passwords, and other minor tasks. How long have you been among the CyberPartisans? I wrote to the bot in the summer of 2021, when Operation Heat broke out and it became clear that things were serious. But something didn't work out then, and the next time I wrote to the bot was when the channel called for IT guys to join the ranks [of the Cyber Partisans]. I told them what I could do, and did a couple of test tasks where I had to make specialised software for the needs of the cyber partisans. Some of that software is still in use even now 🙂 What didn't work out the first time writing to our bot? It's hard to say. I got a response, but then communication broke down. Maybe something happened with the bot or there was no time for me. Why didn't you give up and write again? I will not hide it, at first I was disappointed that my help turned out to be unclaimed, and I wanted to give up on everything. The events of 2021 did not add optimism either: the incipient "great potato shitstorm", the unclear position of the "opposition" on the issue of Russia, the defeat of the OGSB, and so on. There was a strong feeling that the regime had adapted, launched a counterattack and everything would end in defeat, just like all previous attempts. The second time I decided to write when I saw on the channel a call to IT specialists to join the ranks of the Cyber partisans. War was approaching, and it was clear that victory would require the united efforts of all people who cared. The public statements of Supratsiv's representatives and the attack on Belarusian Railways finally convinced me that I should join. How do you feel working in our group now, what are your impressions? I would say that our group is a model of building a democratic society. We don't always have the same opinions about events or methods of work, sometimes it comes to heated debates, but despite this, we keep unity and persistently move towards our goal. I would be happy if this model was adopted by the Belarusian society and became dominant in a free Belarus. How much time do you devote to the cyberpartisanship? It varies. A full-time job leaves little free time, but I try to check in more often to get involved if there's something urgent. Mostly I work on finishing the necessary functions on weekends, when I can concentrate on the task at hand. What motivates you now to spend so much of your free time on volunteering rather than on yourself and your personal life? I think first and foremost I owe it to those who have been imprisoned or repressed by the regime, and to those who are still waiting for action from us abroad. The realization that we have to help Ukraine stop the Russians at all costs is also motivating in a significant way. Once and for all. Otherwise they will continue to seize territories, kill and destroy everything in their path, and Belarus will lose even a chance for liberation. About Work, Stress And Personal Motivation Do your colleagues at your main job know about us, do they discuss cyber partisan actions in front of you? To be honest, they don't say much good. They expect a lot more from us. How does it feel for you to listen to such conversations? 🙂 . Earlier there was a desire to argue, now it's just indifferent. And we talk to each other less and less. Why do you talk to each other less and less? I think it's emotional burnout. People have turned the page or accepted the fact that emigration is probably for a very long time and are just living their lives. Do you think the cyberpartisanship helps keep you from emotional burnout? Probably helps someone, but I'm motivated by obligation (as I wrote above), so I'm probably not in danger of emotional burnout. Well, and when I feel stressed, I just break something or learn something new. It helps keep me on track. Pros And Cons Of Being a Cyberpartisan What do you like most about being a Cyberpartisan? Probably the opportunity to put my knowledge and experience where it will make the most difference in the moment. What's the most challenging part? I think the hardest part is waiting for Moment X, when it will be "all or nothing" and we will finally put an end to the regime's story. That time will come and I'll be ready for it, but the waiting is hard. How do you think you can speed up the Moment X? It requires that as many people as possible join the volunteers in Ukraine and the Cyber Partisans, join the [Kalinowski Regiment] reserve and the Movement of Belarusian Nationalists, and by any other real (this is important) actions help Belarusians realize that the only way to freedom is resistance. Is it hard for you to have to act anonymously without being able to openly tell your friends/acquaintances about your contribution to the struggle? It doesn't bother me too much. Of course, sometimes I'd like to discuss my achievements or tell my loved ones what I'm doing. But I realise that anonymity is a sacrifice necessary so that the regime can't manipulate us. What about deanon after we win? When it's over, I'd love to meet the rest of our 'anti-regime group', sit in a bar somewhere and remember everything we did to win. Leaving Belarus, Pride and the Road to Victory Was it hard for you to decide to leave Belarus? Yes, I didn't want to leave for a long time. There was a hope that people would gather their strength and the protests would resume, but when it didn't happen and the regime went from "crackdown" to outright terror, it became clear that I would be less useful in prison than in freedom, and there were no other options left. Do you miss your native country now? Very much. Most of all I miss the nature, which is very different from what surrounds me now. Sometimes, when I read the news, my eye catches familiar places in the photo and the memories associated with them come flooding back. I don't miss the regime, of course. What do you like most of all in Belarus? What are you proud of? I like its history most of all. The GDL, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and modern Belarus have directly or indirectly influenced the fate of half of the world and left their mark not only all over the planet, but also beyond its borders. Talented scientists, public figures and politicians, brilliant military leaders and revolutionaries hail from here. We have something to be proud of, and it is very sad that now many Belarusians have forgotten about the glorious past of their ancestors and have chosen for themselves the fate of "tuteishykh" - people without the past and the future, and some of them are ready to grovel for the sake of scraps from the table of the new master. As for what I am proud of, it is an interesting question ... I am proud of the fact that I have not become a "tuteishym", but have honour and dignity. And what future would you like for Belarusians? Absolutely definitely - a happy one. By this I mean independence and membership in the European Union or in the Baltic-Black Sea Union, as well as the border with China to the east of Smolensk. Do you think now the primary targets for our attacks should be in the Russia or the Belarus? I think it depends on the circumstances, but attacks on regime resources in RB are necessary so that people can see that we have not given up and continue to beat the regime in every possible way. Were you interested in Belarusian politics till 2020? In general, I was interested. I've been following the events since about the end of the 2000s. I knew the parties and movements that existed in Belarus, but preferred to stay away from them because of their flirtations with Russia, generally inarticulate actions and complete lack of work with people. What political views did you hold? It would be correct to say that I shared and share nationalist views. Do you have any ideological supporters of the regime among your acquaintances? There are none, or they have been hiding very well all this time, but the "indifferent" are like fleas on a dog. What do you think can be done to make those who position themselves as "out of politics" and turn a blind eye to the terror in Belarus interested in what is going on in the country? I think it's an incredibly difficult task, given the level of repression, thirty years of brainwashing, orientation to Russia (even of a significant part of the opposition) and the complete absence of independent media. I think that the very development of events will inevitably push the "indifferent" and those for whom "there is no war" to finally decide who they want to be: real sons and daughters of their nation, ready to sacrifice something in order to gain independence, or nameless corpses being eaten by foxes and stray dogs. It's quite simple, isn't it? Even if the war in Ukraine will be frozen now, the regime will neither disappear nor weaken repressions, and the "brothers from the East" will finally entrench themselves in Belarus and will go about their favourite business - robbery, murder and rape. With the full support of the occupation authorities. Ten years later, having licked their wounds and accumulated strength, these "brothers" will want revenge and will bring those "indifferent" and their offspring ahead of them. Tell us, how would you like to see New Belarus after our victory? Free. Without state interference where it is not asked for. With local associations solving the problems of local residents instead of "tzars" in their offices. With our national symbols instead of surrogate ones imposed on us by the occupants. With the Belarusian language* sounding everywhere where foreign languages do not sound. And most importantly - with people ready to defend their right to freedom instead of the grey masses floating along the stream. How long do you think we have to fight against the dictatorship? Is this a fight for the coming months, a couple of years, many years? I think we need to prepare for a long and exhausting marathon, and most likely the victory of Ukraine will not give the result that most people hope for. Like it or not, each of us will have to take responsibility for our own fate and the fate of our descendants.

  • CyberPartisans Spoke At the CloudFest Conference

    This is the #1 event in cloud computing, which every year brings together top-notch professionals and major companies: Microsoft, Google, Amazon Web Services (AWS), IBM and others. In previous years, Julian Assange, Edward Snowden, and Ilon Musk have spoken at CloudFest. About our performance: From the stage of this year's CloudFest, Juliana Shemetovets spoke about the work of CyberPartisan and raised the issue of the Lukashenko regime evading sanctions. As the dictatorship continues to use routers, cloud products, and other Western technologies for its own purposes, including repression against Belarusians. ✊ CyberPartisans are able to observe in real time what systems the Lukashenko regime is using illegally and are willing to share this information with relevant organizations to investigate all of the regime's schemes.

  • "CyberPartisans Were Inspiring From the First Day Of Their Existence". Interview With a Participant

    An interview with a cyber participant in our attacks on dictatorial resources. Meet Moore. 🐯 He tells us how hacks work, what it's like to be a hacktivist, and how to get closer to victory. ✊ To Become a Cyberpartisan Tell us, what do you do for Cyberpartisans? It seems that I try to deprive uneducated monkeys from using computer technology against Belarusians and Ukrainians. And for how long? 😄 Directly in the Cyberpartisan group since the summer of 2021. Before that you helped another protest organization? The "Storks". And why did you choose The "Storks" and Cyberpartisans among all the protest groups? Cyberpartisans were inspiring from day one of their existence. I wanted to join them, but I realised that my qualifications as a hacker would not be enough. So I just followed the channel. At some point, The "Storks" initiative was advertised on the Cyberpartisans channel. Since Cyberpartisans had a certain authority for me in absentia, I decided to take a closer look at The "Storks". I liked the way people presented the fight and the methods they proposed. I decided to write to the bot. And what was the first impression from the cooperation? Basically from the communication it was clear that these people have a brain from birth in their head, and have been training it for quite a long time. This was different from other groups I had worked with before. It seemed to me that if anyone has a chance to change something in Belarus, it is these very people with brains and education. So the skills that allow you to participate in hacking, you got them in the Cyberpartisan group? Before Cyberpartisans, as a specialist even in my industry, I was two levels below. A year among Cyberpartisans is like 3 years of intensive practice in a cool office at the edge of the market, or like 5 years in a normal quiet mode. A mega-cool intensive. About Hacking And Cyberattacks How do you feel after a successful cyber operation? A feeling of immense relief, just like after any hard sustained work. It may seem from the outside that the cyberpartisans are wizards who enter any network as if it were their home, and it's all about "find a vulnerability, press a button and everything collapses". In reality, a large successful attack means months of painstaking preparatory work. It's hundreds of gigabytes of studied documents, days and nights spent setting up attack scripts, a lot of headaches and eyes popping out from the tension. At the very moment of hacking, sometimes we had to continue working for almost 2 days without a single break in interactive mode, because at the same time the admins on the other side were desperately trying to prevent it. There's also a sense of accomplishment. This is a completely wrong perception that there is a big war going on. And until the big "dudes" are fighting, there's no point in getting involved, there's nothing you can do to help. In fact, the big victory will be achieved just by countless tiny but real deeds. And what real deeds bring our victory closer in your opinion? Ready to go on attacks and kill the invaders - go to the RKK as a fighter, not enough courage for such a thing - it's normal, not everyone is born a hero at once, go to be a car mechanic or a medic. You understand IT - break the state systems and the sponsors of the war. Engineer? Help the RKK with designs and technological processes for drones or other weapons. Know English? Translate and distribute news about Ukraine, Belarus, torture of prisoners, etc. A marketing expert? Use your brain and make a viral video for Kalinovsky's regiment. Official? Help Cyberpartisans with access to computer networks. Can't do anything at all? Donate directly to the fighters. Are you too scared to do it from Belarus? Buy a ticket to Turkey or Sakartvelo and pay from there. Or even just go and take all the money off the card and throw it in the rubbish. Because right now Belarusians keep tens of billions of dollars on various card accounts and deposits, and the junta tortures and destroys them with this money. The junta has no "own" money to support all this repressive apparatus and will never have it. It is mostly the savings and taxes of those very Belarusians who are against the war and for democracy. Which of our public cyberoperations, where you participated, are you most proud of? When I succeeded in stopping railway traffic in Belarus, I thought: "Well, if by this at least one Ukrainian was saved from death, then my life was not in vain". Then reports began to come in that the Rashists started to fail in logistics on that section..... This future victory will be entirely the merit of brave Ukrainians. And it is great luck that we were able to bring it even a little closer. We will endeavour to help more often and on a larger scale. About CyberPartisans And Changes What is it to you to be a Cyberpartisan? Being a Cyberpartisan means doing the impossible yourself and watching ordinary guys do impossible things too. Ask any IT expert - can a small volunteer group, amongst other things, hack into absolutely ALL government databases, wiretap police chiefs or stop a railway? You will quite definitely be told "it's impossible". At first, I too managed to say "it's impossible" to someone's ideas. Now that combination of words no longer exists for me. How did the 2020 protests in Belarus affect you in general? When mass protests began in 2020, I was really shocked. Some of the people whom I "behind the eyes" had written down as supported Lukashenko actually turned out to be just real guardians of the remaining Belarus - with flags in their wardrobes, their native language, and a firm desire to change things where they had gone. I also didn't count much on the young, those who were born and grew up during the usurper's autocracy. I thought that we had time to live in a short period of relative democracy, and they had not even seen such things in their lives as free press, pluralism, rallies. I was wrong, too. People are born with freedom. And even 30 years did not break those people who did not want to be broken. How did participation in the CyberPartisan group affect you? Psychologically, participation in CyberPartisans had less of an impact than this horde of young people with glowing eyes who were ready to decide their own fate, who to be friends with, how much to pay for gas, what color their house would be and how high the lawn on the playground would be. The fact that they have not yet got their chance for "people's power" is not so terrible. The main thing is that we have them, and there are a lot of them. The cyber partisans have added a sense of calm and hope. There are a lot of people here willing to play the long game. Some of them don't seem to be scared of the 10 years of struggle ahead. Most Telegram channels reek of 100% rottenness and all-propaganda. Among Cyberpatisans, of course, it can happen, one or the other gets a bit of a headache. But in general, people are holding on, working, and not going to give up, not even close. How do you like working in our group? Cyberpartisans are a paradise in real life. There is only one problem with participating in the Cyberpartisans: the real danger. If the special services [of the Republic of Belarus or the Russian Federation] find out and get hold of you, you will get your head cut off live on all channels, instead of a lullaby for your children. As an example, so to speak. And in terms of anonymity, is it hard for you to be anonymous? I'm a total introvert. I live by the "two is too many" formula. If there's anyone else around, I feel uncomfortable. So I'm willing to be anonymous for the rest of my life. Ideally, I would like to hide my participation in CyberPartisans even from the person close to me. How much time per day does it take you to work in a cyber partisan group on average? It varies, but usually about 10 hours a day, but really - until my eyes and head start to hurt like hell. Well, and the typical problems of life take you out of work like everyone else: illness, family and different problems... Were there moments during these 3 years when you wanted to leave "The Storks"/ CyberPartisans and go back to normal life? I didn't want to leave "The Storks" - somehow everything looked safer and more autonomous there. At CyberPartisans, there are two reasons that constantly get on my nerves: - safety; - I do not what I would like to do in life, if I had the opportunity to do it. On the second: I'm the kind of person who puts a comma in "break not build" after the second word. I'm terribly internally disgusted by the idea of destroying something. Even if it's a shitty and shoddy network, I still feel bad that I'm destroying the result of someone's work, even if it's of poor quality, even if it's illiterate and shoddy. But still someone did it, built it. And I only destroy it. That is why I try to stick to projects where some useful "product" is produced, which is very likely to come in handy, including after the collapse of the regime. And it is good that the CyberPartisans have quite a few such projects. About Defeating the Dictatorship What would you like to do after the Victory? Have you thought about it? Over the years, I have made a clear decision about what I will do for the rest of my life: before, after, instead of, or during the victory. Fighting evil. Because if people don't fight evil, it grows very quickly and sooner or later will destroy the whole world. As long as there are non-humans ready to torture defenseless people, kill them with sledgehammers, cut off their heads for money or "ideas", I will try to inflict maximum damage to such creatures. As part of any capable group in any country, but of course, I would like it to be the Cyber Partisans and Belarus. Do you think it will take us a long time to defeat the dictatorship in Belarus? A long time. Because dictatorship is not in Drozdy. Dictatorship is in people's heads. They are used to being "dictated" by someone, for example, a "correct" school curriculum. People must first learn to take personal responsibility for every aspect of their lives. Including their health, the relevance of their profession, their pension savings, or the order in the lift and around the entrance. And only after that it will be possible to get rid of dictatorship forever. Yes, something similar on self-governance at the level of courtyards, we were just about to start in 2020. Too bad it was stifled. 🙁 I think it will come back very quickly once they stop killing for it. By the way, in 2020, did you think that a peaceful protest could really defeat the dictatorship in Belarus? I didn't really believe in it, but I didn't believe that there would be anything at all in the elections. I thought it would be like in 2015 🤣. And I turned out to be wrong. I rather very much WANTED the peaceful protest to win. At that time, the second option through civil war was not acceptable to me at all. And concerning the punishers, how long do you think Belarusians will remember their "merits" after the overthrow of the dictatorship? Will a just punishment await them, or will people turn the page quickly enough to live on in a peaceful country? They will not forget. World War II ended almost 80 years ago and Nazi criminals are still being identified and even imprisoned. I'm not expressing my opinion now, but what I see in people. Maybe they won't get revenge, but it is absolutely certain that everyone will get at least a lifetime (if not forever) page on the national resource Black Map, depending on the gravity of the offence. And the rest - the court. If you dare to raise your hand against a Belarusan, and especially against a Belarusan woman, you will answer to the full extent of the law. Sooner or later, but absolutely everyone will be brought to justice.

  • "I Didn't Enjoy Job Before CyberPartisan". Interview With the Creator Of Partisan Telegram And P-SMS

    Meet our vivabelarus. The creator of Partisan Telegram and P-SMS tells us how these most important applications for the security of Belarusians were "born", what new products to expect, and whether it is difficult to be a cyberpartisan. Protest Marches, Ideas, Friends Let's go from the beginning, how did you come up with the idea of Partisan Telegram? It came from the marches. When my policeman friend was arrested, they put him face down on the floor in a bus and went into his phone, asking him for his password. When he told me about it after he had done time, I thought: "What if my phone had sent me a text message at that moment?" I would have known what had happened to my friend and maybe been less worried. That's why the first feature was SOS messages, which have now been removed. Something more wasn't planned at the time, because there was no network on Sundays. And there were thoughts about what could be done without the network. Did you come up with P-SMS too? Yeah, P-SMS came up at the same time. I asked myself the question: "How can I communicate only via text message without anyone reading it?". And I started P-SMS before I started working on P-TG. It was relevant during the marches. When you need to ask a friend where the police are standing or where the water cannon is, but there is no internet and you need other means. And how did you transition from ideas to realisation, why did you decide to do it yourself? I don't remember when the idea formed that "we need to do this". It's a gradual process from "it would be nice to have this" to "why don't I do it myself?". Before this incident, I was thinking about how I could help the protest with my qualifications. And there had been some attempts. But in general I realised that I couldn't do much more than participate in marches. And when the idea came to mind, I realised how I could make a case with my qualifications. Basically, I wrote in a bot [CyberPartisan] with early versions of P-TG and P-SMS implemented. Next, they just needed to be finalised so they could be published. Did you immediately realise that it was a " hit" and that the applications would be useful for all Belarusians? I made apps right away, because it was necessary. At least to share them with my friends. There were no thoughts about their publication and distribution. And then, when the applications were ready, I began to think that since I had such a good tool, I should provide it to other people. So I wrote to cybers. And a few minutes later I also wrote to Nexta's bot. See if anyone would respond. Maybe I'd write to someone else if no one responded. No reply from Neхta. Probably, they thought that some fool writes, he doesn't know what he wants. But when CyberPartisan posted about P-TG, they reposted it. And kind of admired it. Because Putilo asked for something like that at the time, and then the cybers did just that. About Working In the CyberPartisan's Group How quickly did the cybers respond to your bot message, did you have to wait long? Pretty fast. I wrote it at night. In the morning I got a reply: "Why is there a thing like this in the code?" They gave me some ideas on how to improve it, and I improved it about a week later. But I was immediately put to work on test tasks on small things.😄 They remembered about P-TG a little later. And we only came back to P-SMS in the spring. I mean, there were developments on it, but they were not used in any way. What feature of Partisan Telegram, in your opinion, was the most useful for Belarusians? At the moment, I think that account logout. It was suggested by some user. It seemed nonsense to me at once. But if they ask me to do it, I will do it. And when I saw that this function works invisibly, transferring to the remaining account, I realised that it was a " hit". Did you work on P-TG alone from the very beginning, when you joined the Cyber team, or did someone help you? I wrote CyberPartisans sometime in early December 2020. P-TG was something I did alone for a long time. Sometime in the spring I got an assistant. A nice guy who helped me with the Android P-TG, and then he started doing P-TG for computers. Well, he's doing it now. And then there were other guys who helped with Android. But without really diving in, periodically. The development of P-TG and P-SMS is almost entirely my responsibility. I also had and still have a lot of help from the testers. They are not involved in development, of course, but I don't know what I would do without them. How long did you have to work on implementing the idea before P-TG went public? Less than 2 months since I knocked on CyberPartisans bot. Now you have to do management and recruiting, a lot of communication with subscribers on P-TG and P-SMS. Do you get tired of it? Do you have weekends, holidays? It varies, some things make me tired, some things don't. Writing out the answer to a question in the comments can be fun. Then you look at your watch and realise that you didn't program anything, you just answered the questions. 😅 Weekends are usually spontaneous. You just work-work-work, and then you realise you have a attack of procrastination. And that's it, you don't work.😄 Well, or friends invite you somewhere and "so, today I'll make myself a day off". In general, my work is more or less spread over a week. I take a holiday sometimes for a week or two. Sometimes it's a semi-vacation. Sometimes it happens like with weekends: the holiday arranges itself. What disadvantages do you see in being a cyber? I'm kind of psychologically pressurised by not being able to discuss work with friends and my life with colleagues. I still don't really imagine what to say later on at job interviews about why I have such a hole in my career.😅 Aren't you tired of working on two applications, would you like to take on new projects? To be honest, P-SMS is a bit boring. You've made an app and then there's the pressure of maintaining it. But in general I am satisfied with these applications. Sometimes there are specific tasks that I am too lazy to do. There is no compulsive desire to start new projects because the old ones are boring. Rather, there are thoughts about what else could be useful to do. But there is no time to realise everything. Have you ever thought about giving it all up and living a normal life? Nope. I didn't enjoy my job before CyberPartisans. You know, you do a project, you realise it's profitable. But it just didn't make sense. There was no feeling that I was doing something interesting or useful. But in the CP, there is such a feeling. There is a feeling that I am doing something useful, that I am really helping people. Although sometimes the responsibility is stressful. If I overly reassure people with my applications, but I can't really protect them, the responsibility for their arrest will be on me to some extent. In general, I don't really understand people who work just for the money. It's like "I don't care what I do, as long as I get paid more". For me it is important that what I do is interesting or useful to me. New Ideas, Volunteers, Anonymity Any ideas for new apps for Belarusians? What else would help people? Firstly, there is a desire to make a partisan Element (Matrix). As a safer alternative to Telegram for those who don't trust Durov too much. Secondly, I'm working on a password manager bot. The idea is that it would be cool if a person would not know their passwords, they would be stored in the cloud, encrypted with a master password. And when detained, for example, the password from Telegram cannot be beaten out of a person, because he does not remember it himself. To get the password, you need to write to a bot, provide it with the master password, and only then you can get your Telegram password. And if you write a fake password to the bot instead of a real master password, the database with passwords will be deleted. There is no way to find them out. And how can you get your password from Telegram if you can't enter the application without a password? Through a "clean" account to find out the password from the " partisan" one. Well, this way you can store any password, for example, from an encrypted hard drive. What specialists are needed for the development of current applications (P-TG and P-SMS)? We need Android developers (Java), C++ developers for desktop (Windows, Linux or Mac), iOS developers (Swift), testers. The main problem is that people simply don't have enough free time to immerse themselves. Free time to volunteer is more important than straight up cool skills. Oh, also. I came to CyberPartisans with my projects and we released them. It would be cool if other guys came in with their designs. Because suddenly they don't want to work on other people's ideas. The key is that they don't just give ideas, they actually do it themselves. 😄 Well, of course. 🙂 We need developers with their own ideas, not advisors. By the way, do people write to the Partisan Telegram bot some stories about how the app has helped? The stories were mostly when we asked to write. After that, maybe there were a few more stories in the bot/comments. But the bulk of it was then. You're the only cyber right now who doesn't hide your Telegram account. And even actively replies to people. Why did you decide not to hide it? I don't see much point in hiding it. The account is used only for cyberpartisanship, and has never been used for anything else. I don't really see how hiding the account would increase security. Did the police ever write to you in person? No, they didn't. Or I didn't realise it was the police. 😅 About Politics And the Future Let's talk about your personal political position. Who among Belarusian political figures do you respect the most? I have basic respect for all those who try to do something good and do not put sticks in the wheels of others. But I don't have direct admiration for anyone. For me, the ideal is what many people talked about in 2020: the absence of a leader-chief. When everyone is their own leader and tries to do things where they can. And which figure from world history do you consider a model for yourself? Kalinowski, I guess. Why? I admire his devotion to his ideas to the very end. And his faith in the people. Did you think about what you would do after the liberation of Belarus? I haven't planned much. Things will never go according to the plan anyway. 😆 Probably, I'll continue doing what I'm doing now. Unfortunately, there are enough dictatorships and such software is in demand.

  • What Is Checked In the Phone During the Personal Search?

    This post is based on the stories of those who have had their phones searched. So, the first thing they look at is: 🔺YouTube - subscriptions, likes, comments, saved videos. 🔺Telegram - channels, chats, contacts. 🔺 Photo and video gallery. 🔺 Social networks. Prepare yourself for questions about whether you view materials from "extremist" channels, what your political position is and why. What you can do ahead of time: Don't keep the google account from which you watch news and politics videos on YouTube authorized on your phone. Purposely log into that google account every time you need it. If step one is difficult to do, at the very least delete the video from the "History" section of YouTube immediately after watching it. Do not leave likes or comments. You can also set YouTube to not save your viewing history. Delete non-anonymous social media accounts if you've left likes and comments from them that could get you arrested. Install P-Telegram and create a separate "partisan" account for political channels and chats. In the settings, select the option to automatically delete/hide the account when a false passcode is entered. Set P-Telegram to automatically clear the cache when you lock the app. Delete all photos and videos in your phone's gallery that could be a reason for your detention. Don't forget to clear them from your Trash / Deleted folder as well. Share this post, help others to keep safe and take care of yourself! Long live Belarus! ⬜️🟥⬜️
