Hey guys,
I noticed some weird things happening last night when I had a drink with some mates. Specifically waited till I got up the next morning and was sober and clear headed before making this post.
Not sure where to post this, was doubting on posting it to /r/privacy or /r/netsec or something, but figured if I'm not going crazy, someone on here might have experienced the same thing.
Alright, so only 2 little things only actually, but they got me thinking;
- I sent a text on Whatsapp to a mate of mine, regarding some kind of 'shipment' and he is a well knows drug dealer. This text was left on unread because he was in bed by the time. Yet 2 hours later it got the 2 little blue checkmarks that means it got read. Problem is he didn't open it. His phone was empty and he was sitting next to me when it got 'read'. N
I've got some pictures of cocaine and other various drugs on my phone. Nothing to weird or something haha, just some casual nights of chilling. But suddenly last night, same with the texts that got read, the pictures where on top off my gallery. I've got Android, no idea how it is with Apple, but these pics where a couple of months old and to find them suddenly at the top of my Gallery like they have been edited or sent or some shit got me thinking a bit.
I live in The Netherlands, I've got a freaking stable internet connection, last night though after a couple of minutes doing some darmarket stuff, my internet dropped out for 10 minutes. No scheduled maintenance or any notion of a malfunction (again, my Internet is very stable so this a not common at all). After 10 minutes it came back online no problem, like nothing happened. But i've never had the connection to my ISP drop before for this short a time without notice. (still might be some maintenance stuff, but again,never had this before without there being a message about it on my ISP homepage) I'm really not worried about anything but I'm super fucking curious by now though...
So hope anyone can shed me some light on my paranoid mind.
Small disclosure, I've got nothing to hide. I've got drugs in the house, I like drugs, but it's not the stuff that would get me in trouble or prison. So this post is not made out of paranoia but more curiosity and caution. Glad i'm sober now because this already sounds paranoid. Again, got nothing hide or didn't do anything to break the law or someting, so if I actually am seeing ghosts Ive got no idea why ;)
Thanks guys
tl;dr whatsapp to drugdealer got read while his phone was out and pictures of drugs on my phone got suddenly transferred to the top of my gallery like they were used. ISP internet connection went dead for 10 minutes withoud any notification on their site whatsover, never had Internet drop before (Netherlands) This all in one night, so getting really curious.
Cheers, sorry for rambling <3
Okay first off WhatsApp has an automatic setting that will download any picture that you receive into your library. You can turn it off look it up! Second, not sure what to say on your messages being read but I do know WhatsApp offers encryption but it's also owned by Facebook, do you really want your privacy in their hands? I recommend using Signal messenger. They are known for not answering to LE subpoenas and you can set messages to delete automatically after a certain time.
