NEW: El Salvador President Nayib Bukele reacts to judges overstepping their authority to hamstring Trump and DOGE

"That’s exactly what judges were doing in El Salvador in 2021… So we impeached them all and then proceeded to fix the country."

EXCLUSIVE: Star Health is a $1.4B revenue insurance company whose CISO sold ~31 million Indians' data from salary to PAN card to a Chinese hacker for $43k.

Ever wondered how these things happen? Here's a breakdown of the events "allegedly" with video proof.

1. Amarjeet Khanuja, CISO of Star Health, reaches out to xenZen through a referral from denol on encrypted chat app Tox on July 6, 2024.
2. xenZen says yes and they negotiate and land on $28k for customer data on Monero (crypto). CISO doesn't know Bitcoin is a bad idea for this nor has ever used escrow.
3. CISO sends hacker login credential and an API endpoint w/details on their proton mail. Hacker sends money and gets it.
4. On July 20, CISO says I can also give you all the claims data. They agree on $15k and repeat the above.
5. Five days later, hacker says his access was revoked and CISO says "You've taken 5TB and I want $150k now because senior management wants a cut."
6. Hacker asks for a refund and gives final warning.
7. xenZen posted a sale listing on BreachForums for diplomatic passports of India (unrelated).
8. Sep 25 is when the starhealthleak website drops with 2 Telegram bots for customer and claims data.

From private sources, xenZen says he's bought and sold data from Indian companies before. Attached is video evidence which is unlikely to be spoofed.

The media did not care until I posted about it yesterday. Star Health responded by legal threats against Telegram and Cloudflare and a forensic investigation.

People in power in India (and perhaps elsewhere) will sell your data in a heartbeat. Why? No one seems to care.

On September 4th, I was served an injunction order by lawyers of Rohan Dua for my tweet about his questions to ace shooter Manu Bhaker.

My tweet was protected exercise of free speech. Instead of being bullied, I chose to seek vacation of the injunction as the suit had misleading averments.

My contentions have been upheld by the honorable Delhi High Court, injunction vacated, and I've been deleted as a party from the suit.

Thanks @SaketGokhale for raising the issue of #constitutional challenge to the #ForestConservationAmendmentAct2023 in the #SupremeCourt in the #Parliament today . Excuse my unparliamentary language but the response you got from the Hon minister @byadavbjp was bunkum.
I am one of the petitioners among 13; 11 of whom are civil servants including former forest service officers- & those who have served in the @moefcc as forest secretaries

Under India's new draft Broadcast Bill, @taylorswift13 will need to get her songs evaluated by a Content Evaluation Committee in India, with people from women& child welfare, SC/ST reps.

You need better people for @MIB_India, @AshwiniVaishnaw.

The internet is not Cable TV.

[Sukhada @appadappajappa]

She's an entrepreneur.

Like millions of others in rural India who run their own businesses and aspire to provide better for their families.

Often entrepreneurs like her have to borrow at 15-20% per annum from private moneylenders. For an amount as small as Rs.10,000 or 15,000.
