As tasteless as dancing on a grave before the body's gotten cold is, I don't feel bad seeing it happen in this case. Elliot and co. would have done the same thing if a KF user had died, simply because they used the site at all.
It's been about a good while since Elliot started ramping shit up in efforts to nuke the site. I remember it was about this time last year that he got Cloudflare to drop us under false pretenses ("immediate threat to human life"). Afaik, some KF-adjacent sites such as the Lolcow wiki are still frozen by Cloudflare.
In retrospect, it was probably a net good that Cloudflare dropped us. Not only was Kiwi flare created, getting dropped helped kick start a "trial by fire" and see who the best service providers (backend, etc.) are and see who was more susceptible to Elliot's "girl talk" blackmail sessions.
