I hate the Internet and the people who own it

[The Howlers of Mars]

The common theme between AT&T and Comcast is that they both seem to shift a lot of traffic towards and receive a lot of routes from Level 3/Lumen. In Comcast's case particularly, they split a lot of their infrastructure in the US into other small little ASNs (such as AS33651) that masquerade as their internet backbone AS (AS7922). These little ASs often have two peers - the Comcast internet backbone itself, and a direct peering with Level 3, which I assume overall means they have a good relationship with L3 and thus probably prefer them. L3 for whatever reason does not have routes for the 1776 block. I would think Comcast would get the routes via Telia, Cogent or PCCW, but it seems that's not the case.

Comcast might be the only company that doesn't peer with any of the ISPs we're going through. We have about 90% availability.

Liz is complaining to companies that we don't even have transit through right now btw. In 2016 he assumed our email server must be the Kiwi Farms server. Today, having learned nothing, he assumes any ISP our ISP peers through must be our transit. He never bothers to verify anything he finds and goes off no-cocked constantly. Very lazy behaviour.

Former Google employee for good reason.

Remember to call your cable provider and say, "I WANT MY MTV KIWI FARMS!"

There is still one other thing that they haven't considered. Something that might actually help kiwifarms remain accessible on the Internet:

This site is an international multicultural community with a large minority user base made up of a variety of racial backgrounds, sexualities, and languages spoken.
Any attempt to block it from access is a blatant act of White Colonialism.
Check your privilege, troon.

We could also play up the fact that much of our userbase is female, due to all of the women seeking refuge from troons invading their spaces, and to block us would be an act of misogyny from the patriarchy that is attempting to control women's voices online.

I'm wondering if this would not be a slam dunk case in court if the attackers were sued, it can be very easily proven that this whole shitshow has resulted in a lot of lost business and maybe it would discourage future dregs of society from pulling similar pranks. These people need to know their actions can have some very real consequences.

I had a similar thought to this last night. His constant attempts to get people in other countries, for example, to bend to his will and complain to their local companies and police all so he can get his way because he knows what’s best for all of us and we should do as he says…it’s all a bit colonial really. A somewhat supremacist attitude. Very imperialist.

Just got off the phone with Comcast support. They seemed to have no idea what I was talking about but promised to escalate and get back to me. We will see; it is comcast after all.

I’ll try with AT&T later.

 

[Potato Cat]

Comcast and AT&T seem to be the stragglers. Unfortunately I use both. Nord's Seattle node doesn't work for me, but the Vancouver BC one right next to it does.

Add Verizon to the list.

Honeycombs.io is $33 for the first year on epik. I'm genuinely considering throwing something up for a year if I figure out what the legal implications are.

On second thought, I really am not in a position where I can afford legal fees or anything if I do end up getting sued.

I guess Dong Gone reads this thread too cause the domain is active and now redirects to honeycomb.io lol


Registered on epik also, which makes sense considering they have an account on epik under the email elizabeth@ctyalcove.org

If only Null had the millions of dollars needed to cover the legal fund in terms of hiring attorneys and court fees in a case that would likely span years if it was ever brought to court.

The only way that Null could get anywhere in terms of challenging this in court is if he were part of some sort of class action lawsuit. As this is mostly being directed at Null, I am not sure what other parties would have legal standing.

Is the american legal system this dysfunctional? This seems to be a pretty obvious case where the criminal behavior is very well documented by both the criminals and their victims.

LMAO. I wonder if we can make him register any domain related to Honeycomb simply by talking about it. How about honeycomb.com?

Of course Comcast isn't peering. They're always last to everything.

Yes. Often times a lawsuit can be a matter of who has the bigger war chest.

Yes. It's the worst system out there, except for all of the other ones. Criminals are given the full benefit of the doubt until they're convicted, or something like that.

I tried that and ended up getting someone sounding like they were in a hut in India somewhere.

 

[RVNX]

I can reach clearnet again in Germany (Vodafone). Whatever they did, it didn't last long.

Hahaha. Preserved for posterity.

 

[Kermit Jizz]

So clearnet never came back for me, but I've been accessing the site through the .net on tor. Suddenly the .net on tor is not working. It pulls up the error message almost instantaneously too. Anyone else getting that?

Your dedication to this site and it's community is admirable. Best of luck, Josh.
