00:39:06.7 --> 00:39:51.0
Yeah, huge, huge fucking W in Scotland. Incredible. Fucking, it's, it's so good. I am incredibly excited about going over that today. Also, the fucking turf that had like a huge fucking meltdown. Incredibly funny. Before I do that, though, I want to go over what happened to Kiwi Farms. I haven't talked about Kiwi Farms on stream for a while. So let me go over Kiwi Farms for a little bit. And then we will go on to things that actually matter in this world.
00:39:51.0 --> 00:41:03.6
So, the website's down, again, and this time, it's because they got dropped, again. Because it always happens. Every time they get dropped by a service provider, it increases the likelihood that they will get dropped by a service provider in the future. This has been a continuous thing happening basically ever since Cloudflare dropped them, and once again, incredibly proud of our community. Because Cloudflare is a $16 billion company, and we were able to convince a $16 billion company that said that they would not drop kiwi farms to drop them. Because when we come together, we put our mind to something, and we work together, put aside all of our differences, because we'll never see eye to eye, all of us, on every single thing. We can literally move mountains. I absolutely believe that.
00:41:03.6 --> 00:41:34.3
But, as far as Kiwi farms, they are, they already, yeah. They got, they got dropped, they found a new upstream provider. How long till they get dropped again? Does Matthew Prince still have me blocked? Does anyone have his Twitter account? I can take a quick look.
00:41:34.3 --> 00:41:49.7
Let's see, Matthew Prince.
00:41:49.7 --> 00:42:23.9
I'm trying to find it. East- oh, East Dakota, thank you. Um, hmm. Well, here's your answer, if you were wondering. The CEO of Cloudflare still has me blocked on Twitter. I, once again, did nothing wrong.
00:42:23.9 --> 00:42:50.5
I don't see why he had to do that. The last communication I had with Matthew Prince was thanking him. I thanked him for doing the right thing and dropping kiwi farms. And then he blocked me.
00:42:50.5 --> 00:43:41.9
But I figure because like, the topic of Kiwi Farms is pretty closely, it's pretty closely intertwined with everything that happened with the police and with the swatting, and just doing a quick update, I think would be good. So to do the update, I'm just going to show you Joshua Moon's telegram messages where he was panicking. They found another provider, but they're down. I think there's only three left in the United States that will work with them. We can look at that in a second.
00:43:41.9 --> 00:43:50.9
So.
00:43:50.9 --> 00:43:59.3
All right. Here were the three messages.
00:43:59.3 --> 00:44:16.8
The following ISPs are either rejecting our announcement or blackholing our routes. This is unprecedented without court order. We are a legal site being blocked by massive corporations in violation of European net neutrality.
00:44:16.8 --> 00:44:42.7
It's very funny to use European net neutrality when they preemptively, before any of this happened, blocked themselves in Germany knowing that they would break the laws against the glorification of the Holocaust and Nazi Germany. So bringing up European net neutrality is incredibly funny.
00:44:42.7 --> 00:45:59.9
It's the Christmas season and there's limited options. VPNs will work. Tor will work. I will keep the site available as I can. After New Year's, if this is not resolved, blah, blah, blah, the digital equivalents of the post office are refusing us the most fundamental levels of infrastructure simply because they do not want to deal with complaint volume, so we will complain louder. If we don't undo this damage, then the first nail in the coffin for free... This is the first nail in the coffin for free speech online. Without hyperbole, they have established a surefire way to remove any website from the internet and every ISP will have to deal with direct personal harassment because they have proven it works. This guy is literally explaining how activism works. This is what a boycott is. This is not harassment. This is a boycott. Sending an email is not harassment. Posting my fucking mother's home address that you got from doxxing her, that is harassment. This guy is a fucking cry-bully piece of shit. Just completely, completely talking through his teeth.
00:45:59.9 --> 00:46:27.4
So, he just goes on and on. He's saying he's going to reach out to the media, but all of his, all of the times that he has talked to the media, he said the press are scum. And even some of the journalists that have tried to correspond with him got doxxed after he posted their emails to his website. So that's not going to work.
00:46:27.4 --> 00:47:10.7
And here was the last one. Arelion, the last tier one providing US transit has given into the terroristic harassment. The internet has been broken wide open and the message is clear. If you want something online censored go after the families of ISPs. Once again, remember, this is sending complaint emails. This is not going after the families of executives. This is not terrorism. This is the most lukewarm kind of boycott that you could do. If you look at the history of any boycott, this is tame. This is incredibly fucking tame.
00:47:10.7 --> 00:47:41.5
Yeah, no, no, no, Josh literally protected the Christchurch shooter. He hosted on his server Action Zoolandia's website, which is a neo-Nazi organization in New Zealand. He started hosting them despite the New Zealand government for blocking his website because he refused to pull the footage of the Christchurch massacre shooting.
00:47:41.5 --> 00:48:22.0
Nothing he says is sincere or legitimate. He is literally insane. The funniest thing about him though, I think, is that he runs a podcast called Mad at the Internet. Now, I've been mad on the internet. I'm sure most of you have. But as far as I'm aware, he is one of the few people who has literally been mad AT the internet. Like he's actually just mad at the infrastructure companies that make the internet work. I think it's really ironic how that turned around on him.
00:48:22.0 --> 00:48:39.4
So, that's the situation with kiwi farms. How raw does your brain have to be to be able to conjure the energy these people have to keep going? I don't even know.
00:48:39.4 --> 00:49:13.8
And it's like, with the situation with this site, Joshua Moon's already acknowledged it's on its last legs. It's never going to be what it was before it is. It's a sinking ship. And they can keep grabbing buckets and they can keep bailing out water, but eventually the ship is going to sink. There is nothing they can do to stop it. They don't have enough planks and boards to seal all the cracks.
00:49:13.8 --> 00:49:55.4
I'm happy with what we did. I'm glad we stopped it where we did because this is going to be a game of whack-a-mole for a long time. I have no involvement. Like these... The ISPs just keep dropping them. I have not been engaged in any of this in a long time. But I thought it would be good to give an update. Just like, how this is going. So that is... That's it, I think. The legal update on the case against the police will be sometime in January, as I said.
00:49:55.4 --> 00:50:16.8
So, I'll make sure that everyone is kept up to date, but more than anything, I'm just happy that I can finally talk about it after people have accused me for a long time of lying about something that I said I was going to do for months.
00:50:16.8 --> 00:50:34.5
I want to get on... I want to get onto the Scotland news because that's really cool. But there's also a W in Spain? Ooh, okay.
00:50:34.5 --> 00:50:54.7
That's also not what EU net neutrality rules actually say unless they want to claim the Kiwi Farms as being blocked in favour of a competing site. The law has been clarified mostly to apply to commercial interests. I don't think they could successfully use... No, they can't. They're just... They're literally grasping onto anything that they got.
00:50:54.7 --> 00:50:59.6
Anything.
00:50:59.6 --> 00:51:46.5
Yeah, they're just fucking LARPing. But it's fine. They can do what they want. I have no interest in continuing to be in a fight with them. I don't know. Their site's dying and I want to cover the news. Talking about them is kind of getting boring. We've got some real Ws to cover. Some things that are going to really change a lot of lives for our community. And I would rather talk about that than talk about incels who have no other way of getting their rocks off than obsessively stalking people online. Honestly.
00:51:46.5 --> 00:51:54.2
Let's get some real Ws going.
00:51:54.2 --> 00:52:03.0
Okay, Scotland W. Let's go over the Scotland W.
