Running The Brokers Guild isn’t free.

To quote their own documents: “Scanning the entire globe in close to real-time takes resources: server computing power, disk space to keep everything, scanning computers, and Internet bandwidth.”

Donations

The author of RADAR welcomes one time or monthly donations. There are five levels of patron available: bronze through onyx. Bronze is free, and onyx is either $25 a month or $250 one-time.

At bronze level you get “Near real-time alerting on comms actions.” Coming soon for the lucky onyx members: attack alerts based on resonator deploys for up to 50 portals.

The full list is presented in an appendix.

Many public posts since the original information release state that this tool was for detecting spoofers. The most expensive perk available is “Farm upgrade alerts for your team via RESWUE op.”

It remains unclear how a farm upgrade alert helps you catch spoofers.

Patreon

The RADAR Patreon is located here: https://www.patreon.com/radarresistance. We have preserved the PDF in case the Guild elects to destroy this evidence.

On the morning of 10/19, the author of RADAR was making $261 a month from his work. The reward tiers on Patreon:

Reward Level Cost Reward Patrons Gold $10/month Reports galore. 10 Platinum $20/month Gold + RESWAR and API (future). 1 Onyx $25/month Platinum + Attack alerts 6

Paper Trail

In the #radar Slack channel, the topic has two URLs:

https://goo.gl/forms/KDeM6W1KG23GxhZh2 for deployment (Google form)

https://goo.gl/A4fYrz for fundraising (Google doc)

These pages both remained in place as of 10/20, but are preserved as PDFs and where possible as archive.is links.

The fundraising page contains the donation information above, as well as a link to the Patreon and Paypal information. The deployment form does not request money, but it does allow you to tailor the alerts you want. For example:

VRHS mod added

ITO- mod added
