Featured on Oct 31, 2022 by Null: The Return to Clearnet
Immediately addressing the most retarded people in the room acting like a plug pull is imminent at any moment,
In my defense, even the screaming retards on Twitter overestimated ISPs. They've been complaining to hosts for months, even when those hosts don't care. The revelation that ISPs would easily and willingly give hand to censoring the Internet was a shock to all, and now that will become the new default strategy. Jumping between providers won't work if major players like Zayo and Voxility are conspiring to shut down individual communities. Worldstream, a major datacenter in Den Haag, instructed a large company to stop doing business with me. So it's not just the DDoS mitigation, it's the fiber optics, and the concrete warehouses who are actively capitulating to a few retards on the Internet.
Now that I understand the true depth of the rot and corruption in the system, I will not rely on any single ISP again. It is not possible for them to force us off Tor. Even with DoS attacks, we can mostly mitigate those and keep refining it over time. Improving Tor's performance will become a top priority if our reliance on Tor becomes more important.
The fight is to be on kiwifarms.net, on clearnet, accessible to the average user of the Internet with no special tools or requirements. I have fought a registration barrier to reading threads on this site for 9 years because I don't think people should be required to do anything just to see something. My position on that doesn't change now just due to circumstances.
I am absolutely livid, and at the same time very sad. I first started using the Internet at about 9. I saw many websites that were just ideas propped up by individuals or two brothers, and they became massive cultural phenomena from basically nothing. Newgrounds, MySpace, Runescape, and 4chan all fit into this category. I realized very young that I wanted to try and be one of those people. Unfortunately, those people were my age when I was a kid, and they all got out at the right times. I'm now trying to prop up an antiquated format in a modern era where the average retard has a Twitter account and gets to decide what kind of website is too offensive to stay up by sending emails on their fucking iPhones. I feel like the Internet is an old friend I am watching die in real time thanks to a cohort of sex pests.
My plan is to return to Clearnet today, and my new providers are very confident in their plan to keep it up. So, I am too.
- The new setup is distributed in such a way that even if every working copy of the site is destroyed in a nuclear attack, recovering it will never take a week again.
- If we cannot go up on clearnet, it will remain on Tor until at least February 3rd, 2023. At that time, I will make a judgement call about the prospects of the site.
- If I decide the site is untenable, it will be frozen, archived, and the archive will be purged of user data. The archive will be made available to everyone by Torrent.
- The site will be unfrozen and remain up after the archive is made to give people to an opportunity to discuss options, websites, strategy, network with one another, etc.
