  • The post of 12 November 2023 follows a developer persona working for Japanese clients under the handle bravemaster619 and the name Liyou Ding, through a GitHub account removed by 30 October 2023, a LinkedIn profile deleted by the same date and a Hashnode blog, and concludes that the persona is most likely a North Korean IT worker. The LinkedIn profile is not carried because the post gives no address for it; the author's own contact address is not an indicator.
