On one occasion, they learned that a company’s overseas suppliers had ties to foreign intelligence agencies. Another client asked his firm to determine whether an acquisition target had been infiltrated by foreign hackers. Yet another hired Nisos to determine the source of multiple cyberattacks. It turned out to be the work of a competitor that had intercepted the company’s Wi-Fi from an apartment rented across the street.

I was investigating ways to not only identify varying analytics code in sites, but to correlate them with other sites that may be linked to the same owner. Please note before further reading: I make some guesses about what I find, though that’s contrary to the concept of analysis, and I am not presuming to know definitively why I am seeing what I am seeing in this specific case study. It’s all just very curious to me. Dive in and take a look for yourself!

One of the features I love is that I can elect to see pop up ads (infrequently) in exchange for [BAT](https://basicattentiontoken.org/)– a utility token with some value similar to cryptocurrency yet distinct. Recently I was served up an ad for a site called [VidLeap](https://vidleap.com/start) with some pretty outrageous claims. It’s a teaching course led by a man named Vincent Briatore that claims he can walk you through setting up a Youtube channel and brand that *may* earn you up to 1 million followers, 100 million views, and $100k a month in revenue in only 4 weeks.

But they'll be able to amplify US-created disinformation and have more time to disrupt 2020 in other ways.
