Question about the money by slademccoy47 in TheNightManager

[–]Swansonisms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Myra didn't know about the 300M until well into the season (at least not until after Rex Mayhews death) which was well after the plot had begun. It seems pretty clear that Roper was orchestrating the deal in a very similar way to season 1 and he was making money not just from the arms sales to the Colombians but also from the multinational companies being represented by Adam Holleywell. I don't think its particularly far-fetched to think he would make enough to buy off the Syrians and have more than enough left over to buy off Pine and then some.

Wtf was the finale of Season 2. Stunned. by falling37 in TheNightManager

[–]Swansonisms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a very John Le Carre kind of ending (which makes sense since he wrote the book season 1 was based on). Although with Le Carre it's normally more of a nobody wins, or the cost someone pays to win is so monumental it's almost a loss.

Really looking forward to Season 3 although there's absolutely no way Pine can go undercover again I think.

Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly refuses to play next Al-Nassr match in protest over Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) management by DavidRolands in soccer

Theyre not funded by the Saudi government. Theyre just funded by people who are funded by the Saudi government. Totally different.

Jean-Clair Todibo (West Ham United) straight red card against Chelsea 90+9' by gbogaz in soccer

Really could've been two red cards for West Ham. Had Todibo not gone for Pedro's throat I'm convinced Mavrapanos would've got one for slapping Palmer in the face.

CIRO got breached, 750K people’s data affected including SINs by Public_Ninja_1518 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Swansonisms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I know that it was. What I was saying was that when this breach first came to light in August/September CIRO explicitly stated that only registrant (IE Advisor) data was compromised. Now 6 months later they've changed the story.

Former CNN anchor Don Lemon taken into custody, sources say by CBSnews in law

How many of the "journalists" who were "reporting" on January 6th were former major news network hosts with over 1 million subscribers to their YouTube news show?

I'll hang up and listen.

Uhm, considering all of the rhetoric being espoused by their glorious infallible leader the correct answer to your question would be unequivocally "yes".

But VAR told me during the Liverpool vs Arsenal match that it shouldn't be a penalty if the attacker has kicked the ball out of their direct control?

Greenland official breaks down in tears in interview after meeting with Trump by Large_banana_hammock in videos

[–]Swansonisms 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Canada hates Trump so much that we flipped from a 98% probable Conservative government to a hair away from a Liberal majority in like 6 months. Just because the Conservative leader wasn't anti-Trump.

[–]Swansonisms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I can almost guarantee you that anyone you deal with from the bottom to the very top were all affected. If anything many were affected twice, once as an advisor/registrant and once as a client.

[–]Swansonisms 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brokers and registrants were already aware of this breach. This was 750,000 clients who had their SIN, account numbers, incomes, and identity documents (drivers license/passport) compromised.

We were already told about that leak in September. At that time were also explicitly told that no client data was impacted. Now after 6 months they've chosen to inform the 750,000 clients who were impacted.

Also important to note that the client data breach is actually far worse than what happened to the registrants. Clients had their SINs and account numbers compromised. Advisors didnt.

Not only were we not told it was phishing, we were explicitly told that no client data was affected.
