UHC, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Caresource and more are removing or redirecting their about us pages.
Good thing there isn’t some kind of machine that lets you go way back in time to see the pages before they were removed
Good thing someone who can plan their attack and track their target for days or weeks, someone with absolutely nothing to lose and a single-minded purpose, would absolutely give up on their plans if they can’t find a public picture of a company’s CEO on the first page they check.
Also the fucked up facebook for companies exists
Holy shit is LinkedIn a terrifying source for osint. Even without sales navigator it’s a gold mine, and with it you can find just about anything about anyone on there.
please refrain from capitalising such despicable names :)
Fair point, auto correct forced my hand
Not nearly enough.
Yet.
We killed one CEO, which resulted in one change to their company.
They stopped automatically denying people anesthetic for surgeries because a CEO was shot.
It works, it was just proven that indiscriminate attacks against the wealthy result in them making concessions.
Now we just need to kill one CEO for every small improvement we want to see.
We have a lot of work ahead of us as a country
not enough in the long run, there must be something that prevents this shit from coming back if we manage to fix or improve it in anyway. Otherwise they will just bide their time and we are back at the same point but with even less chances to do anything about it.
Cause they know what they are doing is wrong!
Cause they know what they are doing is wrong!
I doubt it.
If they actually came to that realization, they would change how thwy do business.
I used to think that way. Indeed, one of my favorite quotes is from D&D, where an Arcanaloth, a being who is literally the physical manifestation of neutral evil, says “My friend, do you truly believe we consider ourselves evil? No, we seek only good. It’s just that our definitions don’t quite match.”
But more and more in the real world I have come to believe these people know that what they are doing is wrong…and they don’t care.
If you’re worried that your CEO will be murdered, that might be an indicator that you have some deep problems as a company. If you’re all worried, that may be an indicator that your entire industry is a problem.
It’s really not that hard to run an insurance company without making people want to murder you
Honestly… I’m not sure that it is. The entire concept of an “insurance company” (particularly health insurance) is inherently predatory.
Most other countries have figured out how to prevent people from wanting to murder health insurance CEOs…
Then again there seems to ba a few things that other countries have figured out, but American exceptionalism won’t consider trying.
The entire concept of an “insurance company” (particularly health insurance) is inherently predatory.
They made sense when the only insurance was the kind that paid out if you sent a ship to India and it sank on the journey.
Remember, one of the provisions of the ACA was requiring insurance companies to ensure at least 90% of expenditure was directly towards covering care, meaning insurance companies are legally permitted an incredible up to 10% profit margin. For context most retailers have profit margins of 1-2%
Don’t forget that the ACA also stipulated they had to send overage checks out to members if they spent more on marketing, bonuses, etc than on services. Getting refund checks from Blue Cross/Blue Shield at the end of the year because they spent too much money on everything but healthcare wasn’t exactly reassuring.
For profit insurance companies are inherently predatory. But so are for profit hospitals and drug companies.
So yeah at this point, it might be impossible to run a non profit insurance company with the consolidation of hospital ownership by the few big hospitals and Catholic Church, and the vertical monopolies of the insurance, drug and pharmacies.

Have the government run it (if we ever again have a sane government).
While I think these are scum, people want to murder people over too little cheese on their burger.
OK, but do do you think this particular case is similar to “too little cheese on a burger”?
No, and I never said that. But thinking that you can run a big business and nobody would be “kill you” mad at you is very optimistic. People can be incredibly irrational, and the more customers you have the higher the odds of a crazy. And you only need one crazy to get lucky.
If I was a CEO of a big company, I’d want some security 24/7, even if I made Saint Gaben look horrible in comparison, because you never know when some certifiable in Bumfuckistan decides I’ve destroyed his peepee with mind rays or something, and decides the only logical thing is to kill me.
However, with this guy everyone wants him dead, and I really hope some of the chucklefucks running such companies start thinking if that really is the legacy they want to leave behind.
Don’t forget that that a CEO legally has to maximize profits. Otherwise the shareholders can sue.
Edit: apparently this is incorrect. It is what they’re hired to do though, so not a big difference.
Don’t forget that that a CEO legally has to maximize profits.
That depends on the corporate charter.
Yea dummy… that is the “reality” we want changed.
To you it’s immutable, to us it’s not.The economy isn’t driven by the laws of the universe, it’s people, we can change it any time and have chosen not to. So now CEOs are dying.
Wanna change it now? No?
Alright cool. Maybe this is the new normal then.
People have a limit.
Of course they won’t see it that way.
They will now create fake CEO profiles (with machine learning capability) available only on Zoom due to safety concerns.
May be one day, they will also replace the CEO by an AI agent. That won’t be worst than today anyway…
Isn’t this the plot of Deus Ex: Human Revolution? Been years so maybe I’m forgetting… But I remember the main media/propaganda ending up being run by an AI…
Fairly sure today’s version of “AI” could easily replace CEOs; nothing of value would be lost.
Yeah because somebody as motivated as the shooter in Manhattan will totally be deterred by removing the “Our Team” pages from your website.
Talk about focusing on the wrong thing. How about instead of worrying about how to hide the names of your executives you instead have a meeting where you decide to be an ethical company that balances the needs of the shareholder with the needs of your customers.
Novel idea, I know.
That would just encourage people to shoot more CEOs.
Executive thoughts… By Dick Richass
I mean, that is not how the internet works but okay.
What do you call one dead CEO? a good start.
Aren’t public companies public?
Internet archive exists…
These people are as dumb as they are evil.Even if they arent, something like ddosecrets probably contains a number of members at the very least. You just can’t hide your employment.

I don’t get the fuss about it. Guy went voting … he had no paper vote against what fucked him, his loved ones, and millions of fellow Americans over, so he used a high velocity lead vote. Still, just democracy at work.
It was actually a subsonic vote if we want to be pedantic. With at least 6 votes given and 3 successful votes received.

May the rest of them be tried in court and sued so that all their blood money gets repurposed into something useful instead of just being willed to their entitled children.
Won’t happen. They kill people all nice and legal.

Good! The ONLY way to Protect Themselves is to Hide and definitely NOT to create Policies that HELP the Working Class!
They shouldn’t let this become common. Hiding who Runs the company just makes them even MORE faceless and disconnected from humanity. Maybe focus on not shafting literally the entire population for money and shit coverage.
I would expect only the wrong lessons will be learnt. But I already saw a headline about another insurance company reverting some stupid policy, so maybe correct ones will be learnt, too.
Not worth my time to check who it was (I think BCBS), but they were going to deny the totality of the anesthesia line item for a surgery if the allotted time (and therefore the expected amount of anesthesia used) exceeded the original estimate.
You’re correct.
If they’re publicly traded, then leadership is public record. Someone could always publish the info for them in a more helpful way than This
If they’re publicly traded, then leadership is public record
For now.
There’s a lot of CEOs and wannabe CEOs about to enter government.
