Update 17:49, 2 November: I’ve just discovered email replies from two others – one is from a woman in the Netherlands – that initially didn’t show up in my protonmail account. Nothing I can do with them at the moment, but I have already followed up on Glenn Cohen’s email.
(Screenshots at bottom of post. For anyone who still believes that I am delusional. So fed up with that.)
I had written to several people, and just received a reply from Glenn Cohen at Harvard.
Spoofed again or not? I can’t tell. An email from Hank Greely a while back appeared to have possibly been altered. That became clear when I discovered an actual institution that he referred to in his mail. It had initially confused me as it was something quite different in the email and did not seem to add up. A hasty copying error, possibly. It happens.
(Had the email been changed? If so, why? Likely because the hacker doesn’t approve of the work that they do at that research center, or he doesn’t see opportunities there.)
Once you get hacked to pieces and messed with relentlessly and realize how much is possible for motivated hackers, you develop a habit of assessing the authenticity of digital communications because you are aware of how flimsy their basis is.
(I think this mail from Glenn Cohen is genuine.)
He (Glenn Cohen) mentioned someone and a Google search popped this up:
My tablet asked me if I wanted to share this on Google Maps and then gave me the above bogus suggestions.
I think it’s actually meant positively… π
It refers to various real things. In fact, it constitutes a time line, masked, obscured. It refers to things that I recognize, all of them. Steps.
It’s easy to read it as “nah nah nah nah nah” (“lekker puh”), but it may be no more than a cold reflection, a witnessing, or even a signaling of “I know. You’re not alone.” There’s no “ahahaha” this time.
What the hell do I do with this, people? Is he still often isolating me electronically, like he did in Portsmouth? Stopping me from interacting with others?
(Yes. But not all the time. He still seems to control all my email, at all addresses that I use. In the past, he sometimes quickly showed me messages before he deleted them. In the last year, he sometimes made emails appear and disappear a few times in my inbox, to show me that he was still doing that. In the past, I actually saw emails arriving into my phone and then disappear. I inquired about some temp work a week or two ago and before I could complete the process, I already received a rejection email from someone with a name combination that was ridiculously similar to the name of someone else who contacted me some months ago. Also about work. Also may have been bogus. I googled the name to see if it possibly referred to urban slang again. Perhaps.)
