I just though about Steve Huffman’s comment editing shenanigan, and started wondering…
I mean…
Your devices might have backdoors, and even if not, there might be zero day exploits just waiting to be found, or perhaps the government already have them.
The US government could just…
Create a “Antifa PDF”, filled with instructions on how to commit terrorism, and all of its contents which are written by the CIA, and the contents are made to be worded to be as violent as possible, then infect every registered Democrat (whose phone numbers are in the voter registration btw) with Pegasus, then inject that PDF into the files.
Then just call tell the FBI to go arrest them. They arrest the people and just “finds” those PDF document. Now they have “proof” of terrorist activities.
And they might even use Pegasus to just fabricate entire phone conversations.
Like, they can:
Create a fake conversation between Democrat A anf Democrat B and fabricate a convincing exchange about them “plotting a terrorist act”, use the most violent words possible. Voila, more of those “evidence”.
They could just arrest Democrats en masse in swing states.
I mean at this point, they probably could justify Martial Law and there would be zero objections from the military because this would all just “seems legit”.
Like, you wanna criticize trump? Boom, random “terrorist looking” PDF document is in your files (done by the CIA).
Like…
Have anyone though about this?
Am I just being over paranoid? Perhaps I watch too much movies…
There’s proof it’s been done pretty much upto the limit of declassified FBI/CIA documents.
I see no reason to believe the government would have stopped — and if they did — I see many reasons Trump is likely to start it up again.
Stay Vigilant — but remember most of us are fine — they won’t waste risky and time consuming tactics like that on minor targets.
The concept of framing someone implies that there is an honest court to fool into convicting an innocent person.
The government already controls the courts, why make it complicated?
Because they also want to win the “court of public opinion”
Edit: Like just imagine they come up with something worse than “Terrorisr Plot”. They could’ve just put CSAM in Luigi Mangione’s phone/computer and then be like “Ooh this guy is a pedophile”, and fox news are gonna go wild with it.

It has happened before. It can happen anywhere.
The Washington Post reported in December 2022 that hackers had planted evidence on Swamy’s computer.
Jailed without trial under terrorism laws with “evidence” never presented. But surely such draconian laws only exist in India.
I mean, planted evidence is rampant with police, I’m sure digital evidence is just as easy to plant.
If the government scrubs my devices for evidence they’re going to find a hell of a lot more than some fabricated antifa PDF. Lol
It’s all perfectly legal to have but still. They would have absolutely no problem framing me with terrorism. Lol
If they try that shit on me, then I no longer have anything to lose do I. They might fuck around and find out. Now if they did that to everyone not a Republican, they literally call the rest of us terrorists? Then maybe we become the terror they so fear.
Soon or later this is all going come crashing down. Either we turn full fascism and it becomes 1984, or a bloody revolution to take our country back. Time going tell. Just saying we are almost to the point we’re voting won’t matter.
A lot higher now than it was before
I have a hell of a time manipulating files on my mobile devices from my other devices myself. If they have some easy trick to do it I’d love to hear about it.
Could they? Yes. Would they? Almost definitely not for most cases. There’s plenty of crimes they can hit you with if you happen to get on the government’s shit list. A month of active surveillance would give them evidence for a laundry list of felonies. Taking covert action to plant fake evidence is a level of risk that isn’t worth it for the average person. If you happen to be a state level threat that calculus can change.
Pretty likely if you’re important enough to be on their radar? They already use their own router backdoors to patch routers to keep chinese/russian/etc botnets out

Lol, those back doors were probably how they got in, in the first place.
They have back doors to prevent backdoors? Is it possible they are just too nearsighted to realize any backdoor could be exploited by anyone?
In my experience about half of IT workers are clueless drones, another quarter are just slackers, and the remaining quarter get everything done. Those two quarters trade people on the regular thanks to burnout cycles, but yeah, there are still plenty of IT staff out there making terrible, boneheaded decisions daily.
Its important to ride the line between slacking and getting shit done, as well as keeping up skills and not being bored.
Have anyone though about this?
Yes.
Am I just being over paranoid? Perhaps I watch too much movies…
Yes.
Most people’s thoughts are absolutely boring and unimportant to the governments of the world.
