They've updated our Wikipedia page with Near's death, despite the fact that he's probably alive and definitely wasn't being harassed by us.

This is all led by Trump. Let me explain:
It's a similar gay ops to Tumblr/4chan war, in where Trump starts an attack on us under the disguise of trans emulator dev, knowing that we would not grant his demands. He then posts on Twitter. BAM! Twitter attacks us. Angered, Kiwis retaliate. Mass hangings of trannies occur(preferably (to him) metaphorical). Trump voices his support for the Kiwis. Pazoom! Trump got the votes of the kiwis that would not vote for him. His other supporters either hate trannies too, or would vote for him regardless. This is just one big 2024 reelection play.

Not the multiplayer punto it one, they are full of shit, but the other. And those "ricchiun' e trans" from multiplayer punto it don't even allow you to comment immediately, as I wanted to tell them they are full of shit. I need to read more of their articles? Ma vardete in figa dea madonna, dio can! The other one is quite well written by comparison, albeit still biased against Kiwifarms.

Do..do they actually think they're doing anything worthwhile here? They're throwing away their hard earned money to make this site slightly less convenient to use. Of course I'm creaming my jeans. Let the troons ruin themselves.

they're calling it confirmed now when it's a public internet suicide, there's literally no independent corroboration, the confirmer says they'll give no more evidence than their word, and follows it by saying specifically no drives (i.e. cutting off the exact thing that'd fuel internet ire if it was discovered to be an op?)
i know they're only games journalists but i can't think of anything more clearly broadcasting S U S in internet drama. at least try, fuckos.

Yes. These are the same people who freak out when their favorite MMO or online games servers or down or throw a hissyfit when their internet goes down. Always-online zoomers get furious when shit goes down so they probably really think we'd be as pissed as they would be if we DDOSed twitter or something.

The cost of launching a DDoS attack
Almost anyone can fall victim to a DDoS attack. They are relatively cheap and easy to organize, and can be highly effective if reliable protection is not in place. Based on analysis of the data obtained from open sources, we managed to find out the current cost of a DDoS attack on the black...

From a quick google search, but I'm not a tech guy so I can't confirm.
"A DDoS attack lasting 10,800 seconds will cost the client $60, or approximately $20 per hour, and the attack specifications (scenario and computing power used) were not always stated on the customer-facing resource. Apparently, not all cybercriminals consider it appropriate to disclose the inner workings of their botnet (it’s also possible that some owners don’t actually understand the technical characteristics of their botnets). In particular, they don’t disclose the type of bots included in a botnet."
