P8960 420chan and imageboard deaths link reply
Did any of you use 420chan? How do you feel about the admin getting raided and the site being down, possibly permanently? Does it seem like an unusual number of old imageboards have been dying lately?

Say no more.

Honestly, I don't know anything about it but were they involved with anything illegal beside illegal opinions? I know they were a cannabis-oriented community, right? That [spoiler: good] shit is still illegal in most parts of the world. Don't know if that had anything to do with the legal troubles. Details?

As far as old imageboards dying, I think most of it is just oldfags getting old and not caring anymore. Most zoomers don't care about IB lore and culture and a lot of the sites out there get eventually subverted and destroyed by (((antifa trannies))) so meh, let it burn.

Here's another picture with the alleged offense on it. 342.2 is the part of the criminal code he's accused of violating.

>342.1 (1) Every one who, fraudulently and without color of right,
>(a) obtains, directly or indirectly, any computer service,
>(b) by means of an electro-magnetic, acoustic, mechanical or other device, intercepts or causes to be intercepted, directly or indirectly , any function of a computer system.
>(c) uses or causes to be used, directly or indirectly, a computer system with intent to commit an offence under paragraph (a) or (b) or an offence under section 430 in relation to data or a computer system, or
>(d) uses, possesses, traffics in or permits another person to have access to a computer password that would enable a person to commit an offence under paragraph (a), (b) or (c)
>is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding ten years, or is guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction.


>342.2 (1) Every person who, without laful justification or excuse, makes, possesses, sells, offers for sale or distributes any instrument or device or any component thereof, the design of which renders it primarily useful for committing an offence under section 342.1, under circumstances that give rise to a reasonable inference that the instrument, device or component has been used or is or was intended to be used to commit an offence contrary to that section,
>(a) is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years; or
>(b) is guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction.

The date is the day after the data from the Epik breach was released, so it's probably related to that somehow.

From the wiki article:

The Epik data breach occurred in 2021 and targeted the American domain registrar and web hosting company Epik. The breach exposed a wide range of information including personal information of customers, domain history and purchase records, credit card information, internal company emails, and records from the company's WHOIS privacy service.[1][2] More than 15 million unique email addresses were exposed, belonging to customers and to non-customers whose information had been scraped.[3] The attackers responsible for the breach identified themselves as members of the hacktivist collective Anonymous.[1] The attackers released an initial 180 gigabyte dataset on September 13, 2021, though the data appeared to have been exfiltrated in late February of the same year.[4] A second release, this time containing bootable disk images, was made on September 29.[5] A third release on October 4 reportedly contained more bootable disk images and documents belonging to the Texas Republican Party, a customer of Epik's.[6]

Epik is known for providing services to websites that host far-right, neo-Nazi, and other extremist content.[7][8] Past and present Epik customers include Gab, Parler, 8chan, the Oath Keepers, and the Proud Boys.[1][9] The hack was described as "a Rosetta Stone to the far-right" because it has allowed researchers and journalists to discover links between far-right websites, groups, and individuals.[1] Distributed Denial of Secrets (DDoSecrets) co-founder Emma Best said researchers had been describing the breach as "the Panama Papers of hate groups".[1]

Epik was subsequently criticized for lax data security practices, in particular failing to properly encrypt sensitive customer data.[1]

47 US Code 230 is total internet control through ISPs and DNS, and it is Constitutionally and otherwise illegal and ultimately controlled by the FBI and DOJ that could shut it down with a single law suit against a company for violating 47 US Code 202 and nullifying Section 230 as Constitutionally illegal.

A single complaint of something being offensive allows the ISPs and DNS to shut down services to all subsidiary companies at their total discretion with no legal liability, according to Section 230.

If they decide something is offensive on a website, they can shut down every single company that allows that site to operate according to Section 230 and they can do it against markets, communication sites, media, CDNs, etc..

The solution is A.) execute all the politicians and Federal law enforcement families that propped this up since 1996 or B.) move everything to permissionless systems like Tor and i2P until the Feds decide to make them a Federal crime and shut them down on the ISP level (which i2P is resistant to).

CALEA law says every telecommunication service must be wiretappable by law enforcement, meaning the only way to produce and distribute programs that actually protect your information is through the darknet with the developers unknown. If you aren't developing your OS, messengers, and sites on darkweb anonymous github type open source collabs, then you're just going to get blackmailed and arrested unless you install a backdoor.

>Housh did originally vouch for Kirt before gradually retracting key portions that were demonstrably false.
But that's not why Kirt was promoted by @JosephMenn and other press elements with unparalleled records of working with IC/LEO against activists, which I'll go into below.
>First off, keep in mind that both Housh and Kirtaner were longtime police assets who both also managed to avoid serious scrutiny into the nature of that work and its implications for other activists and the public itself for reasons we'll get to.
>This doesn't mean that Housh was acting as a conscience FBI asset when he suddenly started promoting Kirtaner, a guy unknown among the activist vets but long noteworthy among the chan scum, as the "founder of Anonymous" back in late 2020. That's not always how these things work.
>For illustration, here's an amusing March 2012 chat between the most notorious Anon to have been turned by feds, Sabu, and lesser-known IRC kid. William Welna that cops scared into cooperating over some non-activist IRC drama. Both are FBI assets, but with different handlers.
>Notice lack of coordination or even much directed activity. Being turned by FBI in modern activist space can mean all sorts of things, but almost never entails two FBI assets working in well-planned harmony - even if two or more assets working same beat all share same handler.
>Great example are three assets who worked under now-retired FBI DC Special Agent Daniel Borsuk over 2010 to 2013 and focusing mostly on #Anonymous as well as #OWS and smaller outfits like mine: Neal Rauhauser, Jennifer Emick, and Kelly Haillesy.
>https://barrettbrown.medium.com/raw-documents-fbi-vs-anonymous-informants-and-the-press-the-problem-with-sam-biddle-d9555d489892
>All three had overlapping ideology, personality traits, targets, and styles. All three spent huge amounts of energy warring against each other, other assets, etc over that period. Here, Neal vows to their shared handler that he's going to SWAT Emick for vague reasons.
>Naturally, reporters of both corrupt and incompetent variety were part of their actual mission, which entailed discrediting the most problematic of us to the public, media, other activists, and each other (even scummy people like to have some justification if possible). Thus reporters like @samfbiddle who were placed at then-influential outlets like @Gawker were perfect for both actual FBI disinfo and interpersonal score-settling. Half a million people read this article in which asset-on-asset threats were blamed on... us
>That this risked discrediting the reporter were this sort of thing to be discovered obviously didn't concern the FBI or the assets. Less obviously - at least to me, in those days - it needn't concern the reporter, especially if his editor was someone like @johnjcook.
>Indeed, by the time I was raided by FBI over my Project PM squad's investigations into Peter Thiel and Palantir and social media bots and Booz Allen and Stratfor, with our occasional partner Aaron Swartz already indicted, Cook had presided over an impressive array of FBI output.
>Unfortunately he's too modest to discuss Gawker's pioneering though unsubtle partnerships with FBI assets and HBGary contractors like Emick, Laurelai Bailey, Rauhauser, and others, which is why I've never been able to congratulate him personally.
>(It's good that Cook's bid as first editor of @theintercept ended before Greenwald hired me and my comic literary prison column for the outlet. By then I knew enough about how expendable I was to these people not to raise a stink from the SHU, but it would have been awkward)
>Anywho, this was an exciting time for interchangeable scoop-reliant journalists with vague FBI/State Department ties, and even those with none. Biddle would cap off a dozen more ethical sins and countless stylistic ones by making the proto-#MeToo Terrible Men in Media List and thereby prove that even such a readily understandable act of malfeasance as sexual harassment was enough to take down a reporter lucky enough to live in a climate of increasing moral passions and zero moral courage, as it turned out we all did. Anywho...
>we'll just note that Biddle sealed his status as Living Harbinger of Our Media Age by celebrating my sentencing in a piece that got my charges wrong before a quick correction that got them differently wrong - and then turned his gaze to Reality Winner (https://internet.gawker.com/the-former-face-of-anonymous-is-going-to-prison-1681233185) who, like many of us, had yet to pick up on the implications of a whistleblower-friendly outlet being funded by a Paypal billionaire who'd deemed us traitors a few years prior, and naturally didn't know the vastly more disturbing things that turned up in recent months and thus chose to send her leaked NSA documents regarding Trump and 2016 to an outlet where they would be reviewed not just by Biddle, but also Richard Esposito, who would later go onto become spokesman for the NYPD, at a time when its cops drove vehicles through #BLM crowds.
>We may never know exactly how it is that Reality Winner's whistleblower role was exposed to the Trump Administration and whether the NSA was sufficiently grateful that The Intercept sent over copies with identifiable markings allowing them to pinpoint where they came from, especially given the internal cover-up attested to in internal documents that co-founder Laura Poitras made public in the course of her departure, and which I had the pleasure of distributing in more fullness both to the press and to the emails of dozens of staffers, which I did on the off-chance that those of us who'd left over assorted other issues - as diverse as @emptywheel and @KenSilverstein1 and myself - might have left anyone behind worthy of the public trust (and there were at least two).
>https://barrettbrown.medium.com/why-the-intercept-really-closed-the-snowden-archive-e99f46bbfbbc
>A month later I burned the National Magazine Award I'd won for The Intercept from prison so as to bring further attention to what seemed enormously disturbing issues. Then I descended into a lengthy period of speed addiction while I compiled more data on things far worse.
>We can now easily determine why #Anonymous - a movement I was invited to join on New Year's Day 2011 to work in an IRC server Tunisian nationals and exiles and others around the world in an attempt to overthrow a dictatorship and establish a democracy - is now what it is today.
>It's the same reason much else has declined, been perverted, turned both idealism and experience into suicide and imprisonment and occasionally more disturbing things. That a Nazi-linked child porn curator named Aubrey Cottle was declared its "founder" by some in the press despite protestations by a diverse range of those of us who had once been considered us experts and who have also survived - minus Aaron Swartz, Michael Hastings, Kevin Gallagher, others who have not just died but been assaulted in more profound ways since - is vastly simple.
>There is no reason why this should not have occurred in a civilization where journalism - circulatory system, nervous system, more - is just as successful when its own practitioners will sooner hide from questions than account for what they have done, as it is in purer forms.
>Plainly, then, the system we now have - in which the former has proven more viable than the latter in so many hundreds of instances that I've collected in the 20 years I've worked as a media critic and reporter and subject and vigilante - will lead to exactly where we have come.
>Luckily the solution is easy. People who cannot account for their actions and have no moral dedication to defend them if challenged are easy to terrorize if dozens of people have spent a decade locating the correct documents and arranging for them to appear in unavoidable spaces.
>That will do for now.
>Just kidding.

unironically true
fun fact: there is a term in medicine called 'men who have sex with men' (unironically) that is meant to represent what it says on the tin for the purposes of tracking diseases (stds in particular) and they cant just say 'faggots' bc they decided that there can be heterosexual males out there bouncing on cock and still remaining straight as an arrow
