Comment on 4chan’s ‘cesspool of the internet’ is down after apparently being hacked
TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 3 days agoI’ve been told that for clearance above reliability that social media use becomes an issue. 4chan was specifically cited to me by the person with whom I spoke. I’d assume that this means any/all alphabet government agencies, but Army was all that I heard about specifically.
“Do you browse or use 4chan?”
“No.”
“OK, good, because you weren’t advancing beyond this stage if you said yes.”

Unegrettably I don’t know how that community works but wouldn’t 90% of 4chan users say they don’t use 4chan?

Sure, but lying during a process involving security clearance would essentially hang over their head the entire time that they used the credential as a means to get work. It’s not like lying about whether or not you like the food that someone served at a dinner, it sticks.
