The Endless Drum Beating

[The Jumping Dwarf]

Except Sam didn't also go out of his way to talk to everyone who'd listen, get Twitter verified, or have a Twitch audience to address in their crusade. Keffals has a lot more assets and compadres. I think we're really screwed now.

I'm not really directly comparing Keffals to Sam. After all, Lucas is a stinkditch-haver, something mainstream media, academia and corporations will bend over to lick. I'm just using it as an example of Null's resolve. If they hit him where it really hurt and he still resolved to carry on, I doubt few things can make him truly give up.

I'd say the situation was actually a bit worse at that point. Back then, as I said, the Farms was gone entirely. We might be hiding on the deep web as some sort of outlaws right now, but at least we are still around in some form.

Screwed? No one has even tried pushing back.

Salud Ladies and Gents. Let’s keep on until the end. If it is gone for good, I’ll see you all wherever we may end up.

Sure as fuck won’t be Onion for me. Site is fucking unreadable.

For the trannies seeing this, kill yourselves so that your parents won't be disgusted by your crimes against children

For the kiwis, it's been fun talking shit

For Josh, your fat waifu is shit and thanks nigga

"The internet perceives censorship as damage and routes around it" - some fag

Been a heady week, most of my clearnet accounts have been suspiciously jannied even though I genuinely have milky tea politics for the most part.

Well, now I have resolve and will be a true and honest kiwi when I get back from innawoods. Godsneed jersh, you have earned a lifetime subscriber.

 

[Idea Waifu]

Take your time Null and take care

 

[HeraldofNurgle]

Null I think it'll be good for you to take a nice vacation and relax. Let them think they have won and re-charge yourself. You do so much and there's so much pressure on you.

Also fuck everyone who rallied behind people who only wanted their own threads about them deleted so nobody would know how disgusting they are as human beings.

 

[autoerotic bus accident]

I wish there was something I could do to support Josh. Finances are one thing, but he's been investing so much of his personal effort and time. His efforts have been nothing short of heroic.

I hope he's okay and that his family issue is speedily resolved.

 

[Candlelight Desolation]

Thanks for everything, dear leader.

 

[Pitbull Victim]

Here's my gay optimistic take on the situation:

This site has the most hilariously overblown bad reputation of anywhere on the internet. Something Awful, which is viewed with rose-colored glasses by the same kinds of people it would fuck with back in the day, had nutjob goons that would call people's jobs, take pictures of their houses, and even once crashed some other goon's wedding. Here, however, there is a culture of not doing retarded IRL trolling that comes, to quote a fat southern mongoloid with a micropenis, "from the top on down."

Because of this, regardless of what happens, Null will be fine. In a couple years when the Internet is even more of a sanitized, curated hell-hole where you need to make an account to even look at the local news, people will recognize that Null did his best to protect free speech while wrangling several thousand of the most autistic people on the planet. There is also a major opening for a regularly uploaded podcast that covers bizarre internet history that MATI can fill. MATI could legitimately be a license to print money right now seeing as the competition are cucks like Justin Whang whose videos are 30% ads, two Canadians who have an aggregate IQ of roughly 80, and a man who is so absolutely lazy that his cancer cells are even too sluggish to kill him.

It's already started, but once empathy fatigue fully sets in, Keffals and the twitter troon squad will sink into back-biting and cannibalism. The winner of their dickless Mortal Kombat will end up at some scummy shithole like Media Matters on a low 6 figure contract while the rest are stuck streaming to dozens of other dysgenic perverts. Cutting off your penis, while a very funny self-own, does not substitute for a personality.

Do your thing Null no matter how long it takes, family always comes first.

 

[A Grey Cat]

Gentlemen, it has been an honor sneeding with you

also crosspost from my profile
We are the resistance, even in our darkest hour we stand together and will fight to the last breath.

Long live the kiwifarms! long live Null! down with kerrfals! and down with Kennith Irwin engleheart! Down with cloudflare!

 

[DumbDude42]

Good luck. frens.
I know we all made fun of Kraut, but I think we need our own version of what he did
"PROGRAMMERS PLEASE RESPOND"

I think it's time proper help was utilized in protecting the Kiwifarms. I don't code but I assume this community is big enough to create something that should help in the event of mass DDoS and other such attacks. Decentralize the clearnet version of the website, etc. See? What happens when Josh is unavailable during an attack? What if something happens to him? This website needs to be protected better, and big tech cannot be trusted.

Weaponize your autism, lads. Null could create a hidden forum or chat for this purpose.

We fell on our ass. The Troons won the battle, and it's a dark day for the internet all things considered. But this can be an opportunity not just to create an infrastructure that protects Kiwifarms, but something that protects every site the powers that be decide to target. We will win the war. Make no mistake - the powers that be targeted Kiwifarms, not just Keffals and his troon army.

Whatever the solution, I wish you all the best of luck and hope to see you all clear-side in the coming weeks.

you can't really program your way out of a ddos attack
as far as i know the only way to really mitigate them is having strong enough defence infrastructure in place. if your defense capacity can cover more bandwidth than the attackers can mobilize for their attack, you win, otherwise you lose.

 

[ResignedCustodes]

We're still here Chris is still in jail.

Hope all is well with everyone, gonna be a weird September it seems.

 

[Lengthy Sex Derail]

Everybody cheering at the precedents being set is setting themselves up for a terrible, terrible fall. Right now it is looking like Trump stands a very good chance of getting elected at the next presidential election - and I don't think he's going to forget that all of the major tech companies made sure to suppress and downplay the Hunter laptop, nor the poll results which show that accurate reporting and coverage of that story would have changed the results of the election. There's a big, massive swing coming back in the opposite direction, and while I personally hope there isn't too dramatic of an over-correction, I can't really say that I don't see it coming.

Basically what I'm saying is that if the site can hold out for the next two to three years I think the tide is going to turn in a big way.

 

[REGENDarySumanai]

It's been an honor posting here with you fuckers and cleaning up for nearly the past five years. May everything go smoothly, Null.

 

[chainer]

I'm sorry I'm late. I love you all. Feed and Sneed.

A horde of freakish perverted, twisted worms knocks at the gates of Kiwi Farms. The Journalist class marches in lock step with them, colluding with the interests of the Cathedral to silence, to censor, to ensure that their dirty laundry can never be aired out again. But we are still here. So long as there is an internet, so long as there is a signal neither dirty tricks nor political pressure nor outright lies can ultimately stop the truth being spread by this site. The cathedral can't hide the truth anymore, verbal gymnastics and gaslighting won't do it because once you do know it you can't go back. Whether it be a lolcow or some politisperging or just people talking--amongst the pages of this site lie revelations that those in power desperately want people to forget. Remember this.
And remember that Tyrants are made of flesh and bone.

Yeah, I mean given enough attackers they could just ping you to death. I think the target's network stack would blow before you managed to saturate a target's 100GB connection with pings though (you need a little bit under 2 billion pings per second.)

ddos mitigation is more about making it as expensive and frustrating as possible.

 

[metaxas1441]

It amazes me how much of a threat one man and his forum can pose to the current establishment that they need to mobilize that much just to try and bring him down.

Everybody cheering at the precedents being set is setting themselves up for a terrible, terrible fall.

Ah yes, those elections are coming up too; what a funny coincidence that they are trying to shut down KF just before that.

What the lolcows don't understand is that KF is in fact a moderated site that does ban fedposters and dangerous people who may actually try to inflict irl bodily harm. If this site went down for good, clones will likely pop up that are far less moderated. The imaginary threats they screech about could them materialize into real ones (I am not condoning it, just pointing out a probable outcome). Josh and the mods do a lot to keep things tame on here.
