Yup, a really shitty article and nothing of essence in it.

In the case of Ames, yes there was.

From Wikipedia

The CIA also realized that, despite Ames' annual salary being $60,000, he could afford:

A $540,000 house in Arlington, Virginia, paid for in cash

A $50,000 Jaguar luxury car

Home remodeling and redecoration costs of $99,000

Monthly phone bills exceeding $6,000, mostly calls by Ames' wife to her family in Colombia

Premium credit cards, on which the minimum monthly payment exceeded his monthly salary

In March 1993, the CIA and FBI began an intensive investigation of Ames that included electronic surveillance, combing through his trash and the installation of a monitor in his car to track his movements. From November 1993 until his arrest, Ames was kept under virtually constant physical surveillance. When, in early 1994, he was scheduled to attend a conference in Moscow, the FBI believed it could wait no longer, and he and his wife were arrested on February 21

Sorry for the late reply. I just wanted to day Thanks for posting this. I'll have a look in the next couple of days and see what I can achieve.

Have a good weekend!

Any good ressources you used for the wireguard VPS stuff? Still on my bucket list.

Thanks, was about to post the same. I have no emotional attachment to signal, but I haven't seen a real reason why I shouldn't be using it anymore. At least from a security point of view. It works very reliably for years now and does most of the things i expect from it.
