Regarding the apparent and imminent repeal of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act and the future of this website.

All good things do come to an end after all. Too bad I never got to pitch my TV series proposal: Josh, the Legendary Journeys.

This is the story of a time long ago – a time of myth and legend. When the internet gods were petty and cruel, and they plagued kiwikind with suffering, only one man dared to challenge their power – Josh. Josh possessed an autism the world had never seen – an autism surpassed only by the power of his heart. He journeyed the Earth – battling the minions of his wicked stepmother, Vordrak, the all-powerful queen of the A-Logs. But wherever there was evil, wherever an innocent would suffer, there would be Josh.

Fuck me. For good or ill (probably ill) I've spent a lot of time here and had a shitton of laughs. Watching Jace's streams. Laughing at ADF's resurgence. Witnessing the autism meltdown of Shaner. Seeing Nick Bates go to jail. Huffing the salt meltdown of Orange Man's election. Being a bystander to every internet shitstorm, controversy, and meltdown for 6+ years.
It was a wild ride, and I'd hope that it'd never end. But if it comes down to it, I'm glad to have sperged with all of you.

Nearly seven years of farming kiwis & I had hoped for many more. It's been real, guys. I love you all.

EDIT: I know our fate isn't sealed just yet, but just in case.

EDIT ×2 because I just wanted to say

kiwifarms already has tor and there are already farmers where even visiting this site would at least throw up some red flags with law enforcement by default if investigated or might actually be punishable, depending on what exactly they are posting. Embarrassingly enough, yes, farmers from western countries. I personally wouldn't visit this site without a proxy that hides what I'm doing from my ISP. This is the sad state of affairs in the "free west".

People saying josh should just take it "underground" though are plain stupid. How's that supposed to work? His identity and face is all over the internet. You think nobody would or could make that connection?

I hope it does not pass and this site stays for those who do not know the dangers of some people online. But if it does end I will say it was fun. Unlike some other sites that just died from lack of users, this one was a site that I saw grow more and more. I appreciate all the hard work of those who called out the cows who deserved it and I hope you all have a good life ahead of you if not a good day.

While it's good to prepare, I don't know if we're sunk yet and I'm not sure we should be so fatalistic about Section 230's repeal. Trump's been pretty lucky for a president with no previous political experience, but he's hardly been able to achieve at the level he hoped. He has under 2 months to convince people to make this happen, and unlike the issue of pushing supreme court nominations, the GOP is giving wavering support at best.

Live, Null, Live. This isn’t even a fight worth fighting anymore.
Most classic cows are boring as fuck now compared to the autistic, actual, everyday reality we currently live in, the hooligan sisters are dead, and president pepe killing us is hilariously apropos. In the million to one chance our paths ever cross Null, drinks are on me homie.

The US extends its jurisdiction over the whole world, bro.

Trump's bosses just murdered an engineering manager who was running the Iranian COVID vaccine project. Why does Iran run its own medical research programs, you may ask, rather than simply buying medicines from overseas? Very simple- because companies selling medicine to Iran will be targeted with legal and financial attacks, whether they even operate in the US or not.

Josh can't just host in Russia or Estonia or whatever. Even if he can keep the hosting provider secret, he is tied to the Farms, and he will be sued by freaks daily in the US. Without 230, he can't go back to the US without facing suits that could ruin him. And it's bad already! It just isn't going to happen, and you should learn better than to ask him to never be able to visit his homeland, to see his mother again, so that you can shitpost online.

It's fucking hideous.
Edit:
To Kengle's credit, he's trying to make onionfarms more visually appealing. It already looks leagues better.

So the Rona nukes all the small businesses and restaurants, but the large conglomerates survive. This change in law nukes all the small websites, so only the largest ones with the deepest pockets survive. As above, so below...I guess. I think I have spent my time here in the last free areas of the web because after you wade through everything, you find these rare little nuggets, these amazing posts, that change your life, a bit of information you would never have stumbled on anywhere else but a place like this. I feel like I've lost the rights to a gold mine that I've known, and mined all my life, to some large faceless entity.

The powers that be really want everything sanitized.
