There are like 10 of these surge pizza traffic posts from this account every month. And 99% of the time we don’t hear anything happening afterwards so I’m not sure how reliable it is

Very high false positive rate, but low false negative rate.

You could say the same by claiming something will happen every hour.

How could there even be a false negative?

There was an event without and increase of pizza orders I guess?

not a false flag this time. maduros is gone after 13 years.

i understand im just saying that the other 99% of the time this signal leads to nowhere so i would not pay attention to it
