Is is possible or impossible?
Some threads suggest that there is a setting, but Ciro Santilli can't find settings that make www.linkedin.com/in/cirosantilli/ visible in a incognito window.

It surely would be intolerable not to know by

A beautiful quote fom Edward Titchmarsh:[ref]Ciro Santilli believes that it is perhaps for this reason that simple to state but hard to prove theorems are so attractive.
It can be of no practical use to know that pi is irrational, but if we can know, it surely would be intolerable not to know.

Updates 60 new CIA website screenshots discovered on CQ Counter New IP ranges established by
Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-05-23 +Created 2025-04-15
I have come to realize that a few of the websites do seem to use virtual hosting, i.e. multiple domains per IP, and I put a bit more manual effort into looking at known possible IPs that had a relatively small number of domains in them.
This led either to finding a few new domains, or placing existing domains in the same IP as another domains.
From now on I'll consider any IP with more than two hits to be an "IP range".
The new finds around other pre-existing domains are:
- 199.19.110.7 (theworldnewsfeeds.com):
- 207.150.191.68 (technologypresstoday.com)
- 216.93.248.194 (esmundonoticias.com)
- 216.104.38.110 (all-sport-headlines.com)
Furthermore, I now found new hits on nearby IPs of 209.162.192.49 rastadirect.net which was given by Reuters, thus establishing a new IP range there. Apparently I had simply failed to check IPs around one of the possible reverse IPs for it. The new finds are:
- 209.162.192.44 thejewelofsouthamerica.com
- 209.162.192.51 yellow-chair-report.com
- 209.162.192.57 globalnewsreports.net
- 209.162.192.59 easytravelsite.net

"Sources and methods" seems to be an official CIA/NSA terminology to talk about the main categories things that whistleblowers were not supposed to whistleblow.
It came to Ciro Santilli's attention in the Reality film about Reality Winner, and are words she apparently used extensively and which are quoted e.g. at www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jul/25/reality-winner-leaked-file-on-russia-election-hacking-because-public-was-being-lied-to
The term is more broadly used however outside of the NSA, e.g. it is also present on this website which talks about the CIA 2010 covert communication websites fiasco.
This seems to be a bit like CC BY-NC-SA but with the NC slightly relaxed in which you can use for commercial, just you have to give back.

Updates 60 new CIA website screenshots discovered on CQ Counter Possible cute internal information leaks on a few sites by

216.105.98.132 europeantravelcafe.com is a very likely hit that:This suggests that this was an internal site management link for the site operators which was later noticed and removed across versions, leaking the management method in the process.
- had a "Plan Your Trip" link in 2010: web.archive.org/web/20100724024623/http://www.europeantravelcafe.com/ linking to an external website: secure-cert.net/~etc/transport.html

The suspicious "Plan Your Trip" link that was later removed is highlighted with an arrow made by us.199.187.208.12 webofcheer.com has an exceedingly weird HTML page title:which feels like it could be a leak of an internal identifier for this website, or perhaps even worse, for the CIA program itself.

Updates 60 new CIA website screenshots discovered on CQ Counter Better understanding and understanding of IP range owners by
Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-05-23 +Created 2025-04-15
I also started to better note down the IP owner and location of each IP range from viewdns.info at Hits with nearby IP hits, as this is an important information which could offer further clues. All IPs in each range belong to the same provider, since IPs are generally bought in blocks. For example:These don't necessarily tell us directly who the CIA hosted with, since in some cases hosting providers can indirectly rent out IPs from other providers, e.g. Heroku uses AWS. But it does suggest that some nearby IP ranges were done on the same hosting provider while others weren't.
- 62.22.60.49 telecom-headlines.com was owned by the company UUNET and hosted from Spain, and the same is true for neighboring IPs such as:
- 62.22.60.48: currentcommunique.com
- 62.22.60.52: collectedmedias.com
- 63.131.229.12 cyberreportagenews.com was owned by the company ADHOST and hosted from Coeur d'Alene - United States. Interestingly US-based hosts also offer city-level information while foreign ones don't.
