specifically this is how QUANTUMINSERT worked (from the Snowden leaks.) also China used the same technique, injecting malicious JS through the GFW to get bystanders to DDoS github, in a much more obvious and indiscriminate way.

nobody here is remotely likely to be targeted by NSA, of course, but you can actually do such attacks on a budget if you compromise any router in the chain. combined with a BGP hijack it's not far out of reach for even a ransomware gang to pull something like that these days.

Zalgo captchas would go so hard.

oh hey that's the jerk that called me a Trump supporter for refusing to back Newsom after all the anti-trans shit he agreed with Charlie Kirk about on his podcast.
