Satire posted mid-incident, claiming a Coinkite BLOCKCLOCK was found to contain a Russian military listening device precise enough to hear seed words being stamped into steel plates. It is a joke rather than a report, and is registered as one dated instance of how far distrust of the vendor's other products travelled in the first week. Neil Jacobs asked for forensic analysis of BLOCKCLOCK models as a straight question the same day, at neiljacobs-2084978259079426454; nothing captured here establishes that the second was prompted by the first.

This post is registered as evidence and has a locally held capture. The original remains the canonical publication.
