[liberationtech] Recent Malware in Syria

[Collin Anderson]

Rafal,

I appreciate the information on SecDev's involvement; immediately after the
CNN article Telecomix was able to coordinate a number of resources,
binaries, document and contacts. While I understand this was a matter
SecDev has began an investigation into prior to the report,
disappointingly, it seemed to have been done in isolation.

Telecomix only became aware of its effort after a registrar they were
coordinating with began to work with SecDev. For the past month, TCX has
continued its research in a professional capacity and has resources that
SecDev may not. I hope you pass along a message to all that you know who
are working on Syria, that they are welcome to everything that has been
collected by TCX in this process.

Cordially,
Collin
