10/08/2011 | Norwey - Breivik May Have Hidden GPS Coordinates in Manifesto

Josh Voorhees

Computer expert claims to have found secret code buried in the 1,500-page document.

 

Is there a secret code hidden in Andres Breivik’s 1,500-page manifesto? At least one computer-security expert thinks there just might be, the Telegraph reports.

The Norwegian terrorist emailed his massive document to hundreds of online contacts less than 90 minutes before he began his attacks last month that killed 77 people.

The text, which largely plagiarized the writings of the Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski, included hundreds of links to newspaper articles, blog posts and other online material that Breveik used to try to back up his claims about the threat he says multiculturalism poses to Europe.

The tie to Kaczynski, who has his own affinity for secret codes, was what initially caught the attention of Rolf Frøysa, the chief technology officer of a Norwegian broadband firm. “I was horrified to read about how Breivik may have taken inspiration from the Unabomber,” Frøysa told the paper. “I started to wonder whether Breivik’s manifesto could also contain similar codes.”

After writing a computer program to test all the links embedded within the document, Frøysa discovered 46 seemingly broken ones. He was unable to make them work, even when using them on so-called “darknets,” which are typically closed networks used to share files.

"I suddenly saw that some of the work I had been doing suggested they could be GPS coordinates," Frøysa said, adding that he’s shared his findings with the police.

The first coordinates point directly at a train station in Liverpool, England and the rest also appear to correspond to major cities across Europe. ”It could just be a hoax or part of his [Breivik’s] PR strategy,” said Frøysa. “But we need to investigate this document.”
