[Man In A Dress]

we are currently in a never ending game of whack a mole with LFJ and his retard helper. any time they find the path the site takes to get to clearnet they have to complain to get it blocked but in the time it takes for them to do that null can set up an entirely new path that they have to find and complain about again. this will continue forever unless something changes. at least thats how i understood it when he was talking about it on MATI.

Yes thank you for summarising the past few months and telling me the obvious that I already know.
Now if you actually read my question you would understand that this:

Tells me absolutely nothing about what has happened. Apparently "We're so back" but thats it. Did Cogent stop blackholing the site? Did Null finally get to speak to someone? Maybe LFJ died from literal eye AIDS?

Null switched IPs and pointed kiwifarms.net at the new one. That's the "A record" that the TG post mentioned.

Thank you. This is an actual answer to my question.

He changed the KF's IP and pointed the domain at it. I actually mentioned this twice before. I'd say Cogent is still messing with the original IP, though.

So technically no good news since Cogent is still being a bunch of faggots.

At least people with Cogentcel ISPs can access the Farms on clearnet, so it's good news for them.

I find it ironic that Cogent is making such a concerted effort to cut off access to the 'Farms when they allow spammers and phishers to use their services with impunity. (Source/Archive)

I'm thoroughly convinced that doomers are retarded and only capable of learning helplessness.

They're just redditor types who are emotionally invested in their arguments being right. In this case the "argument" is doom, and they get very angry when people won't pat their heads for screeching from the peanut gallery.

Cogent is just like Cloudflare, they will allow all sorts of illegal and heinous shit, but not us.

The human psyche in general has problems with people pointing out that it is wrong, and (slightly unpopular opinion) it's normal to seethe a bit when all of your arguments get finely perforated. However, continuing with the same argument for several posts while completely ignoring points others make is objectively retarded.

From what I'm seeing so far, this current state of affairs, where people who are highly connected and influential (despite any mental issues or skeletons in their closets they might have) are constantly trying to take Kiwi Farms and similarly "unapproved" figures and websites off the Internet, will continue unless the recession we're currently in finally reaches its bottom, a massive civilizational (social, cultural, political, economic, etc) shift occurs within the Western world that is more conductive to a "free Internet", a literal act of Yahuwah God that ends up effectively immunizing the Kiwi Farms from further censorious nonsense, someone "important" or "prominent" getting affected and the resulting backlash causing massive changes, someone "important" or "prominent" getting involved to help the Kiwi Farms, or some combination of the things previously listed.

Kiwi Farms is likely to be able to endure this current state of affairs at least for a little while longer, but in the broader context of the Internet as a whole, it should be considered absolutely necessary that this entire milieu of censorship for political/ideological reasons is killed off as quickly and as brutally as possible, such that it never returns in any significant strength ever again.

What will probably end up happening is that kind of snapback will cause the censorship to simply reverse, so that you will not be debanked and deplatformed for not putting "TWAW, trans rights are human rights, save trans kids!" at the bottom of every post, but instead for not putting "Christ is Kang, can we get an amen " at the bottom of every message. Hopefully, the end of Clown World will not bring about an equal and opposite Jester Planet, but a normal world where people can sperg without having their spaces taken down by angry ideologues.

it's worth it to point out here once again that Elliot No-Dick Dong is not an ideologue. He's a narcissistic criminal sociopath who is leveraging the ideological zeitgeist to try to cover his tracks.

15 or even 10 years ago everyone involved would've told him to fuck off. Trannies have recently become a protected species for disturbing and unspeakable reasons.

Good point, but I'm damn sure the other trannies and their bootlickers aren't helping us. What if they did? I think I remember there was one tranny who got featured in the sideshow thread, found out, and said "Wait, this site isn't as bad as they claim." We need more skeptics like that.

Doomposters and blackpilled faggots are just irritating bitchmade shitworms.
If they really believe everything is that bad I don't understand why they don't follow their defeatist thoughts to their logical conclusion by eating a shell full of buckshot and at least spare us having to listen to their whining.

You can tell Null is angry because he just added an "X" tier to his tier list within the last hour or so.

Keep documenting. Perhaps some vulture lawyer will spare a glance:

Cogent is one of the most aggressively shit ISPs in the world. They advertise themselves as a Tier 1 ISP despite not meeting the standard definition of such. Their marketers are so aggressive that they have been warned by ARIN to stop using WHOIS databases to find people to sell to. They have been kicked out of conventions for planting sales reps in the crowds.

Despite their poor reputation and historic facilitation of piracy, Cogent's CEO Dave Schaffer is personally involved in trying to shut down this website. I have been informed by sales reps that he personally shut down deals to 1776 Solutions, LLC. They have pressured datacenters into evicting hosts that provided us a VPS. As of October 29th, 2023 they are blackholing a 3rd party provider whose IPs we are using for transit in a way which may be illegal BGP hijacking.

Needless to say, never do business with these retards.

Every time they do a bunch of retards start frothing on their profile telling them to stop being trannies and/or kill themselves, so it's not too hard to figure out why they're not particularly passionate about defending us.

they could just give the haters top hat and puzzle piece stickers but they don't for some reason

 

[He's FAT!]

Fun fact, one of the current proxy hosts is Alexhost, a Moldovan company. Very cool guys. They boast that they completely ignore the DMCA, and currently still host z-library (academic books piracy website), despite the fact that operators of z-library are fugitives on the run from extradition to the US, and had their motion to dismiss the case DENIED.

Basically, if Cogent or some other carrier cuts off kiwifarms IP at Alexhost, they are saying they care more about protecting men in dresses being called ugly freaks than shutting down literal criminal enterprises.

Even if they got asspats on here it’s hard to see why any trans would support the site. Unexpectedly, there’s been a massive cultural shift and almost every social institution (particularly online platforms) have rapidly decided that opposition to trans-ideology is verboten. The moderation of this site is a rare exception to that rule. Most non-US jurisdictions are in the process of making it illegal to ridicule trans people, or are the way to doing so. Why shouldn’t any trans person just say ‘the chris chan content isn’t worth it, fuck kiwifarms’?

While it may be technically criminal, there is little I care less about than the obscene profits of textbook manufacturers, maybe the biggest racket in the world.

Change them just enough to fuck up the page numbers and then re-release at $250 or some shit.
