A couple interesting threads I found while thumbing through the archive.

BAN RUSSIA FROM POSTING. PLEASE.

 
So if the server is that compromised, the admins and Jannies are incompetent/don't care enough to maintain the site and the source has been leaked surely that curtains isn't it?

The current staff can't fix it, anyone with the knowledge will make their own personal iterations of 4chan using the source, only the schizos will be left.
 
So, its game over?
it'll probably take them a very long time to get the site back up. I feel like they don't really have a responsible server administrator, and whoever is fixing this is basically going to need to:
1. Reformat the entire device.
2. Reinstall 4chan.
3. Restore 4chan's database to the last save state, if available.

But who is the person responsible for this? Does anyone know how to do this? They're running it on FreeBSD, last updated in 2019. Does ANYONE Hiroyuki has contact with actually know how 4chan actually works right now, enough to completely reformat a server and get this running?
 
one of the emails for a janny has the word Chitwood in it which is the name of the Florida LEO who arrested multiple 4chan users.
Every website cooperates with LEA if sent an subpoena, and I wouldn't be surprised if they have a hotline to the FBI.
There has been a decline of /pol/tard mass shooters now that I think about it.

this might very well go down in history as the day 4chan died, I fully expect SlopTubers like Mutahar to make videos on this
