Stuff has been in the works for a while; Josh keeps us updated, but I'm a boomer, and I don't understand the technical issues. Look, I'm just pissed because I probably won't get to see Russell Greer's response to the court telling him that no, he can't sue his way onto America's Got Talent, and that mediation or arbitration are his only choices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean Moon has been complaining about it for a while. KiwiFarms is going to be made more and more difficult to access and use without service disruption until it's effectively dead. Just like 8chan. He's just upset over losing his power over his corner of the troll farm internet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the risk of sounding 'normie' AF this place historically has been as close as I want to be to internet degeneracy...save for reddit, but thanks to the nature of today's world having all the screenshots, and vids from docu-tubers I've always felt I've had enough info on memes, lolcows etc. to keep me on the sidelines of places like 4chan etc. All I can add I guess.

Out of context screen shots tell you everything you need to know to pass judgement. Carry on, then. I can't knock the farms from screenshots, and cult groups alone, and wont since I havent checked it out for myself. I imagine it can't be to far off from 4chan or any of the other..chans there though, and having chris chans cult of haters/knights congregating there really doesn't help the big picture in my mind, but hey I get that's just one little episode in the great timeline just like the chans... Reddit the chan sites etc. have actually helped the world a few times. Together the users have identified and provided law enforcement with the necessary info to catch some pretty dangerous criminals, but at the same time keyboard spirit detectives have fucked shit up, and got things completely and horribly wrong trying to apply their detective skills without the proper authority and investigative tactics.. It's like the deep web issue is it good is it bad? Only I think the good of the deep web can outway the bad in more cases than a lot of the sites mentioned. I'll leave assessing Kiwifarms to peeps like you though who seem to have given it at least a deep dive or two. 🙏 Edited September 9, 2022 by PhilosipherStoned 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
