No place is too remote The White House is not the only surprise in the observatory. Residential proxies also reach some of the most isolated places on the planet.
Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha is the South Atlantic territory that includes the most remote inhabited island in the world. We recorded 413 addresses and more than 32,000 observations there, split between Starlink and the island’s local internet provider, Sure Saint Helena.
We also recorded three observations from Antarctica. All of them come from a Cloudflare WARP address that points to McMurdo Station.
Other remote places with activity:
Pitcairn: 1 Starlink address, 1 observation.
Norfolk Island: 1 Norfolk Telecom address, 4 observations.
Svalbard: 1 Starlink address in Longyearbyen, 3 observations.
Also seen: the Falklands (388 addresses), the Chagos Islands (43), Tokelau (21) and South Georgia (7).
Residential proxies have infected every corner of the world, and it looks like there is no place they cannot reach. Layer3 Intel tracks residential proxy and anonymization infrastructure worldwide. Even when the proxies hide in networks on the farthest corners of the planet, we can still observe them, leaving threat actors no place to hide.
Just to make sure I got this right, this sounds like someone is running around with a (potentially) breached phone in the white house?
Honestly with the level of incompetence in The White House, it could be anything. A streaming TV box, some sort of IoT device, a phone/tablet/PC, just about anything.
From the headline I assumed it was someone bringing their own streaming box in and hooking it up in the White House so they could watch Mormon Wives.
Maybe it’s Mike Johnson monitoring his son’s porn? I guess that tracking app didn’t quite cut it for him.
now get this, imagine just for a moment: some one tries to spy on the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
