1. post link to jenkins job in a 4chan thread relating to something nefarious

2. see who clicks it

3. now you have IP addresses of possibly nefarious people without needing to subpoena 4chan

Something like that.

How to waste your time tracking down 20000 wanna be script kiddies?

No, but having a list of easy targets to pull from when your performance quotas get low could be useful (I wish I was joking)

Here is how lawyers in Germany do it. They ask ISPs for the person behind the IPs (cough, cough, carrier grade NAT) and then they send cease and desist letters demanding 800€. If you sign their letter you are considered guilty but avoid further consequences, similar to a plea bargain.

It only takes a dozen people having money and fearing court for this to be profitable. The lawyer doesn't want to go to court because that costs money, he just wants you to confess and get paid.

I think we're safe, anyone being half serious would be using a good vpn hopefully, it's likely to be a lot of false positives I would guess!

Several people have been arrested based on 4chan posts recently, after 'threatening' a law enforcement official in florida.

So...yes. Yes I do.
