It also raises serious doubts about society’s ability to block any site from the global web — even one that explicitly incites violence.

I think this bit in particular is most telling about the intention behind this shit. It's not just about Kiwifarms, it's about every website that "society" takes offense to. Of course, the stupid cunt isn't talking about social media websites when she talks about websites that "incite violence."

At least three of its victims died by suicide.

Also note how she doesn't say "Kiwifarms harrassed their victims to suicide," because such a claim is so horribly wrong that they could and would get taken to court. Merely plant that idea in people's heads without stating it, they're dumb enough to arrive at that conclusion.

Looks like they couldn't find better pictures of them.

Fong-Jones also had been targeted by Kiwi Farms beginning in 2017, when she donated to a transgender nonprofit.

You left out the part where that nonprofit was a scam. And the consent accident.

Its users often fixated on transgender people, relentlessly stalking and doxing them. At least three of its victims died by suicide.



And…hear me out…what are their names? I mean, as a journalist, you’d definitely know their names and be able to talk to their next of kin.

90% of the claims she makes are not only false but backed up by 0 references to said information. Say what you want about KF, but we back up our claims on predators with screenshots, archives, and other forms of supporting evidence. Journalists have 0 need for sources or facts. Being taken off cloudflare isn't the gotcha she thinks it is, when cloudflare still operates just fine for bestiality websites to this day

WP blocks all news from their Facebook page in Canada, not just news from Canada so it can't be all that important. Maybe if they were a real news site I'd care more. Then again, if they were a real news organisation they wouldn't treat the news like they were printing propaganda for China.

Founded in 2013, Kiwi Farms has been used to organize vicious harassment and stalking campaigns against targets including Clara Sorrenti, a transgender activist known as Keffals, and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.), a far-right Republican. It went down exactly one year ago, after Cloudflare, a major tech security firm, stopped providing services, saying contributors to the forum were posting the home addresses of those seen as enemies and calling for them to be shot.

But in the week that followed, Kiwi Farms scrambled to stay alive, jumping from Russian servers to a Ukrainian hosting service to VanwaTech, a Vancouver, Wash.-based hosting and security company infamous for providing refuge to 8chan, a message board notorious for white-supremacist content. As it became increasingly clear that Kiwi Farms would not go down without a fight, “Clay” — who spoke on the condition that he be identified by a pseudonym to avoid retribution — joined forces with Liz Fong-Jones, one of Kiwi Farms’s fiercest adversaries, and launched a dogged campaign to keep the site offline.

Clay had been a member of Kiwi Farms in his teens. He was bored, seeking community, pressured by his friends and going through a libertarian phase, he said. But following the suicide of one of the site’s targets, he began to push back on the forum’s creed that its victims weren’t human. He withdrew from the site after he saw Kiwi Farms members turn their talents for doxing and harassment on other members.

His goal in joining Fong-Jones and Lorelai’s group was to help the forum’s users, he told The Post. He pointed to Frederick Brennan, the creator of 8chan who called for that site to be taken offline after it played a role in mass shootings in Christchurch, New Zealand, and El Paso. Brennan, he said, “wanted to free [the] user base of that site from being radicalized, from going down a darker path. And that’s what I’m sort of doing here.”

Having Clay onboard was a game changer. One of the challenges in persuading companies that Kiwi Farms was a bad actor was the site’s opaque language. Outsiders might overlook terms such as “TTD,” which in Kiwi Farms’s vernacular means “total tr--ny death,” using a slur to refer to transgender people.

Lorelai, who is now committed full-time to trans activism, wants to move on to other causes. Fong-Jones is moving on as well. Clay and another one of the younger members of the group plan on carrying the torch.

Which one of you faggots?

the end of the article mentions that fong is retiring DKF and passing it along to his strongest disciple. in other words he realized that he’s wasted a full year of his life trying to take down a gossip forum

In response to a request for comment, Moon wrote by email, “Do you still print that rag on paper? If so, please send a physical copy of your smear piece to the PO box listed on the website so I can frame it. Thanks.”

Holy shit that’s funny. At least she has a sense of humour about it.

 

[Pee Cola]

To the surprise of absolutely nobody, this article was obviously written before Null was contacted for comment. How else did it get released so quickly, especially on a Sunday? At least that Mother Jones faggot from a few months back had a faint veneer of professionalism by giving Null 24 hours to respond to his couple of questions. Of course by "couple of questions" I mean about 50.

That being said, the fact she quoted Null's response verbatim instead of giving a mealy-mouthed "unavailable for comment" excuse make her just a tiny bit more respectable than Mr. Couple O'Questions Jones.

Kiwi Farms always wins.

We can stay retarded longer than they can stay solvent.

Probably some seething autist from /cow/ who stopped emotionally developing in 2015 and can translate chan memes to the trannies. There's literally no point in wasting energy on trying to guess who.

More like six years, but yeah.

Also, this is an excellent time to point out the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect, as described by Michael Crichton:

Media carries with it a credibility that is totally undeserved. You have all experienced this, in what I call the Murray Gell-Mann Amnesia effect. (I refer to it by this name because I once discussed it with Murray Gell-Mann, and by dropping a famous name I imply greater importance to myself, and to the effect, than it would otherwise have.)

Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray's case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the "wet streets cause rain" stories. Paper's full of them.

In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.

That is the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect.

I’m just wondering who the fuck “Clay” is. If the shit about him being an ex-user who sperged out in the threads for either Byuu/Sagal/Julie is true (though, obviously it could be a complete fabrication by journos, which means this leads nowhere…) it’s not impossible to find what his account was.

It's either @CIA Nigger or it's just some random nolife faggot from /cow/ or plategang or w/e who made up a backstory that sounds more sympathetic than "I hate josh for taking away my 8chan cp". At the end of the day, who cares. Nothing here is secret confidential information, it's a public facing discussion forum.
