The Pagon Prologue: Brick by Brick

Read the first part here

Not stopping at the military operatives, Pagon asked for more manpower to be utilized to infiltrate Russian criminal society in order to fund the establishment of New Skrullos in a way that is less track-able by the government in Moscow. It's a process of starting to build their ideal temporary home brick by brick, and after the groundwork with the military, they need to stretch out their control a bit further

Posing as the decorated General, Pagon strut his way to meet an old friend of the General that went rogue and eventually worked for a criminal oligarch.

The friend would never expect that it was all just a ruse by the manipulative Skrull as he got hauled and then locked away in the Fracking Pod where a Skrull operative named Zirksu took his likeness and absorbed his memories to infiltrate deeper amongst the criminal underworld

Just like wildfires, the Skrull moved swiftly and decisively, targeting oligarch from various background that they found necessary to support the success of their operation. Starting from the commander's best friend boss who owned sprawling construction empire and illicit drug trafficking mixed with it named Wassily Kirilenko. He was in the middle of his workout in his private gym when his very own right hand man who spotted his bench press suddenly shape shifted right in front of his eyes and pressed the heavy weight to crush his body. After telling fellow Skrulls he brought along that already infiltrated the innermost security detail of the oligarch to dispose the real body, he checked himself in the mirror and flexed his newfound affinity for big tattooed muscle and the insane thirst for power and control

Skrull love to toy around with their target and taunted them to the maximum pain before locking them away in the Fracking Pods or outright killing them. Just like how Nuro taunted Maxim Yagudin, a former KGB spy turned telco oligarch, on how Yagudin is not that smart after all for being easily tricked by a shapeshifting alien half his size.

"Let's see later how you got so rich, bro. I have theory in my mind that it's all about nepotism and being an eye-candy for an influential widow with wide connection from what I read about you, but I'll know every single thing about you without you even saying a single word anyway.....so.....keep your mouth shut," he said before choking him close to his death to make him unconscious

But all in all, the infiltration of the criminal oligarch can be qualified as a successful operation. Not only they raised so much more capital to support the cause, now they have wide range of services they can use and manipulate to further wreck havoc among human. For example, he might look young, but Gennady Tatishvili is a real danger with his 10,000 well-armed militia that he inherited from his father

The Skrull operative that is directed to pose as him cornered him to the en-suite bathroom in his own sprawling mansion where he met his demise after a heart attack for being so goddamn terrified when he witnessed the Skrull shapeshifted from a woman he's about to fuck to a perfect replica of himself. A portable fracking devices he brought along proven to be handy as he copied all Gennady's memory before leaving the real body unattended in his own pool of pee and sweat, a tragic end to an up and coming oligarch overlord. The plan on his militia is to basically do Gravik's dirty work without sacrificing Skrull operatives in the process

Then, there's this trio of gun manufacturer and also owner of various exclusive restaurant, clubs and gyms across Russia and its former Soviet area. Gravik simply want to have endless gun supply to support his causes to wage war among humans and what better way other than seizing the control in its production to do just that. The high-end chain of entertainment spots can also work wonder for the Skrulls as it will ease transportation process of goods to remain illicit and untraceable. Plus, the spots are well-known among the 1% so it's a perfect breeding ground to get more shells if necessary. The 3 man are related because the first two (Aleksander Samsonov and Boris Samsonov) are step-brother from the same father while the last one (Jurij Alimov) is an in-law that entered the family through marriage with the eldest child and only daughter of the Samsonov family. They were kidnapped as their dinner already spiked with sedatives that can knock an elephant within minutes, and they all fell flat to their plates of privately-catered food in the confine of their own home not even a minute after their first bite. They never wake up during the transfer of their body to the continously-developing Skrulls operation base and once they lined up to the fracking pods, Skrull operatives already await to replicate them and returned right away to their estate in order to not raise any suspicion

Usually, before these operatives went out of their way to live life as humans for God knows how long, Pagon as the Acting General of New Skrullos will test the operatives loyalty and dedication to the cause. Ibragim Musayev is a high-ranked Chechen officials that the Skrulls decided to target since he has close connection with some scientist that would be beneficial for the Skrulls cause, and obviously, Chechen militia (do we need to spell this out?). As the Skrull operatives finished changing into Musayev, Pagon asked him to stand straight and interrogate him

"What's your name?"

"Warrior,"

"What's your fight?"

"Skrullos,"

"What's your dream?"

"Home.....in my own skin,"

"Your enemy is?"

"Humans, of all kind, sir,"

"Can you assure me your utmost dedication to the cause and will not let any humane distraction swerved you from the goal?"

"Yes I can, sir,"

"Well, let the time talk on that. Remember warrior, no spot, no flaw. You're Ibragim Musayev now and there's no going back unless I or Gravik tell you to,"

And just like that, the 260 lbs 6'5" mass monster of a military commander just walk right out to the next room to pick up his clothings, ready to straighten up some unruly Chechen fighters under his command and see how beneficial the scientific community he has close ties with can be leveraged and utilized for the cause of his people

Dec. 28 (UPI) -- Chinese hackers called Salt Typhoon have infiltrated a ninth telecommunications firm, gaining access to information about millions of people, U.S. cybersecurity officials say.

The FBI is investigating the Salt Typhoon attacks, which are spurring new defensive measures, deputy U.S. national security adviser Anne Neuberger told reporters on Friday.

"As we look at China's compromise of now nine telecom companies, the first step is creating a defensible infrastructure," she said.

The hackers primarily are targeting individuals and organizations involved in political or governmental activities and a significant number of hacking victims are located in the Washington D.C.-Virginia area.

The hackers can geolocate millions of people in the United States, listen to their phone conversations and record them whenever they like, Politico reported.

Among recent victims are President-elect Donald Trump, Vice President-elect JD Vance and several Biden administration officials.

Neuberger did not name the nine telecommunications firms that have been hacked, but said telecommunications firms and others must do more to improve cybersecurity and protect individual customers.

"We wouldn't leave our homes, our offices unlocked," she said. "Yet, the private companies owning and operating our critical infrastructure often do not have the basic cybersecurity practices in place that would make our infrastructure riskier, costlier and harder for countries and criminals to attack."

She said companies need better management of configuration, better vulnerability management of networks and better work across the telecom sector to share information when incidents occur.

"However, we know that voluntary cybersecurity practices are inadequate to protect against China, Russia and Iran hacking our critical infrastructure," Neuberger said.

Australian and British officials already have enacted telecom regulations "because they recognize that the nation's secrets, the nation's economy relies on their telecommunications sector."

Neuberger said her British counterparts told her they would have detected and contained Salt Typhoon attacks faster and minimized their spread and impact.

"One of the most concerning and really troubling things we deal with is hacking of hospitals [and] hacking of healthcare data," Neuberger said. "We see Americans' sensitive healthcare data, sensitive mental health procedures [and] sensitive procedures being leaked on the dark web with the opportunity to blackmail individuals with that."

She said federal regulators are updating existing rules and implementing new ones to counteract the cyberattacks and threats from Salt Typhoon and others.

The Department of Justice on Friday issued a rule prohibiting or restricting certain types of data transactions with certain nations or individuals who might have an interest in that data.

The protected information includes those involving government-related data and bulk sensitive personal data of individuals that could pose an unacceptable risk to the nation's national security.

The Department of Health and Human Services likewise issued a proposed rule to improve cybersecurity and protect the nation's healthcare system against an increasing number of cyberattacks.

The proposed HHS rule would require health insurers, most healthcare providers and their business partners to improve cybersecurity protections for individuals' information that is protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996.

"The increasing frequency and sophistication of cyberattacks in the healthcare sector pose a direct and significant threat to patient safety," HHS Deputy Secretary Andrea Palm said Friday.

"These attacks endanger patients by exposing vulnerabilities in our healthcare system, degrading patient trust, disrupting patient care, diverting patients and delaying medical procedures."

The proposed rule "is a vital step to ensuring that healthcare providers, patients and communities are not only better prepared to face a cyberattack but are also more secure and resilient," Palm added.

Neuberger estimated the cost to implement improved cybersecurity to thwart attacks by Salt Typhoon and others at $9 billion during the first year and $6 billion for years 2 through 5.

"The cost of not acting is not only high, it also endangers critical infrastructure and patient safety," she said, "and it carries other harmful consequences."

The average cost of a breach in healthcare was $10.1 million in 2023, but the cost is nearing $800 million from a breach of Change Healthcare last year.

Those costs include the costs of recovery and operations and, "frankly, in the cost to Americans' healthcare data and the operations of hospitals affected by it," Neuberger said.

The Federal Communications Commission also has scheduled a Jan. 15 vote on additional proposed rules to combat Salt Typhoon and other hackers.

#OneNETnewsInvestigates: PH Telco Giant 'Smart Communications' hits Luzon network blackout with no receiving texts and OTPs

Originally published on September 21st, 2024 due to technical difficulties.

MAKATI, NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION -- A serious mobile service disruption took place last Wednesday night (September 18th, 2024), impacting all Smart Communications subscribers in the Luzon area. The outage started before 8pm (Manila local time) and caused a complete loss of mobile data, signal, SMS texts and one-time pins (OTPs) for e-wallets like GCash, Maya and Coins.PH. There were also indications of similar problems in Cebu and potential disruptions here in Dumaguete City and Negros Oriental.

Almost 3,500 users have reported experiencing service problems accessing 'Smart Communications' with 81% indicating experiencing complete service failure on the outage reporting website 'DownDetector'. The National Telecommunications Commission (NTC), a government regulatory board issued a memorandum for this said telco giant explaining such disruptions and restoring the service for both prepaid and postpaid users.

Netizens are extremely annoyed because of the blackout that caused all of Luzon. On the other hand, some local residents in the Visayas and Mindanao are not as likely to worry about a nationwide telco blackout. The day after on Thursday (September 19th), Smart Communications also announced that the issues had already been fixed, and things were back to normal as before.

The company publicly apologized for the inconvenience caused by the lack of service resources and customer support during the blackout. OneNETnews has yet to reached out for a comment.

Rio Grande do Sul floods wreak havoc on ICT services

In addition to the loss of life and damage in Rio Grande do Sul, the heavy rains and floods in the southern Brazilian state have severely impacted data and telecom services and infrastructure.

Mobile operators have opened their networks to roaming – which allows the use of the network outside one company's coverage area – and some are offering free internet to pre- and post-paid customers in Rio Grande do Sul.

Conexis Brasil Digital, the entity that represents the largest operators in the country, said where there is only one network available, customers of any operator can access it for free.

Telco TIM said that in 20 municipalities where it operates in the state, there is no signal and in another 100, there is partial interruption of service. The 120 municipalities represent around 24% of the state's total.

2024 REFLECTIONS

This year has been one of immense growth, as I pushed myself beyond my comfort zone in ways I never thought possible.

One of the biggest leaps I made was leaving Maybank, a major company I had been with for a year, to take on a new role at a telco company. The decision terrified me. I was constantly worried about meeting my parents’ high expectations and whether I was making the right move. Leaving a well-respected financial institution to venture into a completely different industry felt daunting at first, but alhamdulillah, I’ve found a team that supports me and a work environment that has treated me with kindness and respect.

I also stepped out of my comfort zone by attending several external training sessions, something I never imagined myself doing. I pushed myself to stay active in all the activities, engaging with others and forming new connections along the way.

This year, I had the opportunity to meet and speak with many external parties, including top management. The thought of managing their accounts once felt out of reach, but I’m proud to say that I not only managed it but thrived in the process.

One of the most surprising things I did was volunteer to sing on stage, microphone in hand. Can you believe it? It was so out of character for me, but I embraced it and had a blast. I also found myself participating in my company’s TikTok videos for fun—something I never thought I would do, but it was liberating to step into my gen z's side.

I was also part of an event launch, where I played a key role in ensuring everything went smoothly. The responsibility was overwhelming, but it was an experience I’ll never forget.

I stepped out of my usual routine and attended a Christmas party until midnight, embracing the carefree joy of the season and thoroughly enjoying myself.

Work has tested me in many ways this year. Handling difficult people and challenging situations was not easy, but with the guidance of my seniors and the support of my colleagues, I grew in patience and resilience.

I joined a company sports event and to my surprise, ended up winning the game! It was one of those spontaneous moments where I allowed myself to just have fun, and it reminded me of the importance of letting go and embracing life’s lighter moments.

On a personal note, I met someone this year and made a conscious effort to be genuine and respectful, carefully weighing my feelings before fully investing. I’ve learned that not everyone deserves my heart and passion, and I’m learning to be more discerning in who I allow into my life.

I also came to realize that losing friends is a natural part of life, especially in your 20s. Not everyone is meant to walk the same path, and sometimes people grow apart. I’ve learned not to expect everyone to be on the same wavelength as me, and that’s okay.

Reconnecting with old university friends has given me much-needed clarity on what I want in life, and it has helped me reflect on areas I still need to evaluate and grow in.

This year, I also focused on controlling my emotions, taking better care of myself, and committing to more regular exercise. I spent a lot of time driving on my own, which gave me a sense of independence and freedom. Looking back, I feel stronger, wiser, and more mature.

This year has taught me so much about myself—about what I’m capable of, and about how I can keep growing. I’m excited for the next chapter and all the lessons it will bring.

Arctic surge could bring snow squalls with a rapid freeze to major cities (USA Today) The latest wave of lake-effect snow began crashing across parts of the nation's northern tier Wednesday, this one threatening to bring travel havoc all the way to New York City and Washington, D.C. The rolling line of storms extending into a seventh day has dumped more than 5 feet of snow in some areas near the Great Lakes in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York state. Heavy "lake-enhanced" snow was forecast downwind from Lakes Erie and Ontario on Wednesday and Thursday, and heavy snow was also expected over parts of Northern New England. Commuters driving near Washington, D.C., to Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York City on Thursday morning may be forced to drive through what could be blinding squalls, AccuWeather says.

US officials say they still have not expelled Chinese telco hackers (Washington Post) U.S. officials said Tuesday they had not been able to expel Chinese government hackers from telecommunications companies and internet service providers, warning concerned users to turn to encrypted messages and voice calls and giving no timeline for securing carriers. The downbeat press briefing came more than three months after the first report of Chinese spies deeply penetrating major carriers for espionage, and after the FBI and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) met with scores of companies to help them shore up defenses and hunt for hackers in their networks. “Given where we are in discovering the activity, I think it would be impossible for us to predict a time frame on when we’ll have full of eviction” of hackers from the networks, said Jeff Greene, executive assistant director for cybersecurity at CISA.

Cuba’s national grid collapses again, leaving millions without power (Guardian) Cuba’s national electrical system collapsed early on Wednesday morning after the country’s largest power plant failed, the government said, the latest of several such failures as the island’s grid falls into disarray amid fuel shortages, natural disaster and economic crisis. Cuba’s oil-fired power plants, already obsolete and struggling to keep the lights on, reached a full crisis this year as oil imports from Venezuela, Russia and Mexico dwindled, contributing to multiple nationwide blackouts in the last two months. The system failure on Wednesday morning left the capital, Havana, almost completely in the dark. Before sunrise, lights could be seen only in a handful of large hotels and government buildings on the city’s skyline.

Venezuelan migrants keep arriving in Colombia. Faith leaders offer them a home away from home (AP) It’s been three years since Douarleyka Velásquez abandoned her career in human resources. Her new job is not what she had planned for, but still feels rewarding. As a cleaning supervisor at a migrant shelter in Colombia, she gets to comfort Venezuelans who, just like herself, fled their homes hoping for a better life. The U.N. refugee agency, UNHCR, estimates that more than 7.7 million Venezuelans have left their homeland since 2014, the largest exodus in Latin America’s recent history. Colombian records show that as of mid-2024, more than 2.8 million Venezuelans were in the country. In Bogotá, the Rev. René Rey has been helping Venezuelan migrants. The building where he teams up with a Catholic organization called Eudes Foundation to provide information on HIV and cook lunches for homeless people is known as “The Refuge.” It’s also a place of prayer. “We just tell them: ‘God is around here, how are you? We would like to be friends’,” Rey said. “I think these honest encounters provoke something new, where the Holy Spirit really is.” “This process becomes spiritual nourishment for their way forward.”

With election decided, Ireland faces weeks of talks to form a government (AP) Ireland faces weeks of coalition talks before it gets a new government, as the country’s two major center-right parties work to form a stable administration. With all 174 legislative seats filled Monday after three days of counting election ballots, Fianna Fail had won 48 seats and Fine Gael 38. The two parties, who have governed in coalition since 2020, fell just short of the 88 needed to achieve a majority without third-party support. Left-of-center party Sinn Fein won 39 seats in the Dail, parliament’s lower house, but is unlikely to be part of the next government. Both Fine Gael and Fianna Fail have a longstanding refusal to work with Sinn Fein, partly because of its historic ties with the Irish Republican Army during three decades of violence in Northern Ireland.

France in political crisis after no-confidence vote topples government (Guardian) France has been plunged into political crisis after a no-confidence vote brought down the government, ending the beleaguered minority coalition of the rightwing prime minister Michel Barnier after only three months. Barnier will have to resign as prime minister, having warned before the vote that France would be “plunged into the unknown”. The toppling of the government leaves the president, Emmanuel Macron, facing the worst political crisis of his two terms as president. There is uncertainty over how a 2025 budget can be decided as France faces a growing public deficit, and over whom Macron could appoint as prime minister. Wednesday’s vote was the country’s first successful no-confidence vote since a defeat for Georges Pompidou’s government in 1962, when Charles de Gaulle was president.

Berlin’s diverse Christmas markets (AP) The smells of mulled wine, roasted almonds and hot bratwurst are wafting through the air across the German capital again, as the city’s more than 100 Christmas markets are opening their doors this week. But the annual tradition that Germans have cherished since the Middle Ages—and successfully exported to much of the Western world—has become a pretty diverse affair, at least in Berlin. Nowadays, almost 40% of Berliners have immigrant roots. At Humboldt Forum Christmas market near the Spree river, vendors were offering exotic dishes including jerk chicken with cooked bananas at a Jamaican food stand, Argentinian empanadas, French salamis and Hungarian langos, a deep-fried flatbread. While Berliners seem to nonchalantly enjoy the variety of Christmas market offerings, they were fiercely united in their complaint about the increasing price of mulled wine—with one small cup now selling for up to seven euros ($7.36).

Gladiator for a Night at the Colosseum? Some Romans Are Up in Arms. (NYT) It has probably been centuries since Romans have been so feverish about happenings at the Colosseum, and it is not because of the recent release of the Ridley Scott “Gladiator” sequel. A plan by the Colosseum and Airbnb to give a select few people the chance to unleash their “inner gladiator” at the most visited site in Italy has caused an uproar among many Romans who say it demeans a treasured cultural icon. Over two nights in May, a total of up to 32 people will learn the art of gladiator fighting at the ancient arena, taught by Roman history buffs who specialize in historical re-enactments. The project is a partnership between the Colosseum Archaeological Park and Airbnb, the accommodations booking platform, which donated $1.5 million to spruce up a permanent exhibit inside the arena. But some Romans and cultural leaders have given the initiative an emphatic thumbs down. “We’re against transforming the Colosseum into a theme park,” said Massimiliano Smeriglio, a member of Rome’s City Council responsible for culture.

China bans export of critical minerals to US as trade tensions escalate (Reuters) China banned several critical mineral exports to the United States on Tuesday in response to the White House issuing similar restrictions on China’s semiconductor industry the day before. The limits target gallium, germanium, antimony, and superhard materials, which the Chinese Commerce Ministry says have dual-use civilian and military applications that threaten Beijing’s national security. Gallium and germanium are used for semiconductors, and germanium is also used in infrared technology, fiber optic cables, and solar cells. Antimony is used to make bullets and other weaponry. The order takes effect immediately and comes before U.S. President-elect Donald Trump assumes office next month; he has vowed to impose a 100 percent tariff on BRICS nations that have sought to replace the U.S. dollar in international trade—a proposal that China has helped spearhead.

South Korea’s opposition parties submit a motion to impeach President Yoon over sudden martial law (AP) South Korea’s opposition parties Wednesday submitted a motion to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol over the shocking and short-lived martial law that drew heavily armed troops to encircle parliament before lawmakers climbed walls to reenter the building and unanimously voted to lift his order. The motion, submitted jointly by the main opposition Democratic Party and five smaller opposition parties, could be put to a vote as early as Friday. Yoon’s senior advisers and secretaries offered to resign collectively and his Cabinet members, including Defense Minister Kim Yong Hyun, were also facing calls to step down, as the nation struggled to make sense of what appeared to be a poorly-thought-out stunt.

Australian police make country’s largest ever cocaine bust (Washington Post) Australian authorities seized over two tons of cocaine over the weekend worth nearly $500 million after the fishing boat that smugglers used to sail the drugs into Australia broke down—the largest ever seizure of cocaine in Australia. The cocaine, if it had reached the community, equated to about 11.7 million individual street deals, the police said.

Syrian insurgents capture four central towns as government forces reclaim some territory (AP) Syrian insurgents captured four new towns early Tuesday, bringing them closer to the central city of Hama, opposition activists said, while government forces retook some territory they lost last week. The new push came as Turkey’s president—whose country is a main backer of insurgent groups—says that Syria’s government must engage “in a genuine political process” to prevent the situation from deteriorating further. The capture of the towns is the latest in the push by insurgents led by the salafi jihadi Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, as well as Turkey-backed opposition fighters. Insurgents now are about 10 kilometers (6 miles) from Hama, the country’s fourth-largest city. The latest push is part of a wide offensive by forces opposed to Syrian President Bashar Assad that over the past days has captured large parts of the northern city of Aleppo, Syria’s largest, as well as towns and villages in southern parts of the northwestern Idlib province.

Developing Countries Face Record Debt Costs Amid Interest Rate Surge (NYT) Soaring inflation saddled developing countries with a record $1.4 trillion in debt servicing costs last year, the World Bank said in a report published on Tuesday, detailing the precarious state faced by the world’s most vulnerable economies since the pandemic. As central banks around the world raised interest rates to slow rising prices, poor countries with already high debt burdens saw the interest payments on the money that they owed to creditors balloon. While principal balances held steady at around $951 billion, interest payments jumped by a third, to $406 billion. That has left more countries facing fiscal crises and struggling to avoid default. More than a dozen sovereign nations defaulted on their debt in the last three years, and more than 30 of the world’s poorest countries have experienced “debt distress,” according to the United Nations. In 2023, Belarus, Ghana, Lebanon, Sri Lanka and Zambia were all in default, according to Fitch Ratings.

Global arms sales surge in 2023 (AFP) Sales of arms and military services by the world’s 100 largest arms companies totalled $632 billion in 2023, up 4.2 percent, according to a report by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI). In a sign of this surge in demand, all 100 companies tracked achieved sales in excess of $1 billion last year for the first time. “There was a marked rise in arms revenues in 2023, and this is likely to continue in 2024,” Lorenzo Scarazzato, a researcher with the SIPRI Military Expenditure and Arms Production, said in a statement. Sales from the world’s top 100 arms companies “still did not fully reflect the scale of demand, and many companies have launched recruitment drives, suggesting they are optimistic about future sales,” Scarazzato added.
