Hi, this was me.

That article has a lot of inaccuracies, typos, and general mistakes due to it being a summary of a YouTube video.

I recommend instead looking at:

The video it is summarizing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elqAh3GWRpA

My explanation https://github.com/nerdsinspace/nocom-explanation/blob/main/...

The 2b2t wiki page about it https://2b2t.miraheze.org/wiki/Nocom

This whole thing is amazing. It really drives home how a small info leak can be used to generate very interesting and actionable data.

I'm guessing many state level actors already have something like this for meat space, unless they are scrambling to build it now that they realize it's possible.

Congrats!

Pretty fun write up but the most impressive thing to me was the scale of it. What a big commitment! Was everything hosted locally or did it cost money to host it remotely?

From a technical perspective, quite cool. I’m always amazed what people can do when sufficiently motivated.
