Good OPSEC is not enough, sometimes you're already being watched. Sometimes good OPSEC goes wrong and backfires. This talk will discuss how good OPSEC can backfire, show some history of real-world psychological operations, and how to social engineer and troll your way to being less conspicuous of a target, or at least give those watching you a show and bad intelligence. While you can't hide everything, you can shape the way you are viewed by those who are watching you.
