Lol
I didn't mean the don't argue part as though you were, I just didn't want us to lose focus on the actual topic
I have a hard time with how to label Kiwi, Josh and other "freedom fighters" when discussing because I'd like to say nazi but I also don't want the conversation to shift to nazi or not nazi instead of the actual topic
Anyway, I don't doubt he's a good guy, just tired of the kiwi obession
Funny enough I think that’s a phrase anyone familiar with the topic could agree on 😅
It will resurect under the different name. Probably kiwifarms.ru
Already tried and failed.
People falling for the Masterbucks scam program that Epik offered isn't a speech or internet freedom issue. Migrating a server or two to a different provider to not support the parent company is easy protest, that's all.
If it's related to privacy or speech, I care more about it.
Honestly, so am I. Much worse sites on the internet that don't get the level of hate they do yet people are obsessed with trying to remove it. Maybe once every week or so I'll search Twitter to see what the latest drama is since I don't actually use the site. I never even heard of the site until the Cloudflare drama.
The intention of this thread was more anti-Epik than boo-hoo Kiwifarms. KF has other domains and are still online, I don't think they've actually been "taken down" for any long extended period of time. If their users aren't using the Tor site than that's their own fault. I just think it's shitty practice for a domain registrar that praises itself as being useful for alt-tech and controversial websites to... seize a controversial domain while they're in the middle of a campaign to earn back customer trust.
Thanks for the links. Frankly, I didn't see any tangible and credible evidence there. But then I do not even know whether masterbucks is owned and/or operated by Mr. Monster and who f_cked up, if anyone.
All I see there is a sadly typical forum thread with a few users fired up and throwing wild allegations -and- a Mr. Monster who throws around empty corporate and some "I try to be a good christian" blabla.
Plus some lawyers(?) acting weirdly and conspiciously as if thinking they don't have enough to go to court but at least want to virtue signal "we fight for our client".
My personal take so far is: classical case of disliking the man and therefore trying to smear his company.
It would be great if anyone had something tangible, credible and real like court info.
I just hope Terrahost becomes independent again, they have claimed they can buy themselfs back, but ¯_(ツ)_/¯
@emgh the kf and soyjack party shit is just another fuckup for their "freedom" stance, I moved my domains out when I became aware of the masterbucks drama and the other one with the management shuffling and shit, forgot the exact thing.
I hope internetbs and namecrane can stay cool. May privacy stay cool and hip.
Do you think they will bought their own company back from Rob? No way this gonna happen. Business is business, while ethics and morale can be purchased with dollars.
Nah, while Terrahost building a new DC looks good and makes me a bit more hopeful I think nothing will change. Maybe @crunchbits can open a European location.
What is the website address for NameCrane?
I think namecrane.com/net/org are all his, but its not live yet.
Tbh I don't trust that at all
Let me have a little hope okay, never used them and don't plan on using them though.
About good domain registrars though, Inleed is prem
*when they respond and actually do a domain transfer

"Big thanks to @namesilo, who has allowed us to park the kiwifarms.net domain with them and set up a redirect. I have a plan to return to it as a primary domain in 2024.
While I totally understand when a company can't touch us, why can't we ever get prior notice?"
Once upon a time, IncogNet caved to the pressure and cancelled @JoshuaMoon service:

What makes them especially good?
Incognet didn't carve into pressure, WorldStream did. Consider reading the post you linked once again.
emgh has a conflict of interest, both are swedish
their prices are a bit huge but looks alright.
Thanks for sharing!
it's under .st cuz
From what I understand, Terrahost is under different management than Epik LLC which bought the Epik registrar.
Its already been moved from NameSilo to NameCheap. We'll see how long that lasts. 24-48 hours?
Why would he think that spreading the word, thanking them, would be appreciated by them?
He seems completely clueless..
epic
Tweet mentions hosted cp. Incognet would also boot out this scum out of their system. There is no place in the whole world for this.
If there was really CP, no one has been able to show any CP hosted on KF.
