The amount of men I've seen who think they could be target for a spy honeypot genuinely cracks me up. Don't worry bro YOU are safe.
I mean, the US armed forces has to hold regular “know your fucking number” meetings, because the people with security clearance keep getting honeypotted. Basically, “You look like Mr Potato Head with more acne scars and daddy issues, and you smell like wet beef. You’re an Iowa 3 at best. Maybe a 3.5 if you bothered to shower before you hit the bar. If a solid California 10 walks up to you at the bar right outside of the base, and she seems really interested in what you do for work, she’s not interested in you. Know your fucking number, and be suspicious when anyone outside of your range tries to flirt.”
Okay but will she fuck me in exchange for secrets? Apparently I'm unfuckable in this scenario, this could be my only chance.
Oh how true this can be at times
Corporate spy honeypot? Sure, why not?
Been part of a few enterprise SaaS companies where I had access to way more customer data than I should have (not anymore, though). We had some customers with 10-12 digit market caps. I reckon those guys' competitors could've easily dropped a couple hundred grand into honeypotting one of our engineers.
Nation-state spy? You're right on that front, I've never been in any sort of miltech or the like, I wouldn't be a target for those.
