If you want to talk about a public figure and their presence online, there is likely space to do so on my website.Īll I ask of my users is that they keep a cool head, a good sense of humor, and stay strictly within the boundaries of US law. The Kiwi Farms is an online discussion forum about people on the Internet. If that is not an empty threat, this might be coming to a head tomorrow night. The mob on Twitter is promising a final solution to the Kiwi Farms on Monday at the same time. If I don't hear good news from upstream by tomorrow, I will prepare to leave them behind. If you want to send him some sats for a new laptop, his BTC wallet is 17dnK5LdCb9zsBB9yjFtKTs2myVr6J8aZQ and XMR: 49kNeGqkLCpSGzGRtvTP9WanQcHrSGs1r8BUkhmA1yb1NHcXKkknm4rgvCviurk1jaXAfk5YGS7iaSZ2bQmZswNw1VxTy6B. However, it's unlikely anything can happen before Monday.Ī resourceful network engineer managed to tunnel our server so we could get a completely up-to-date copy of the database and attachments.Įven in a worst case scenario, there will be no data loss. Long-term plans are being developed to keep the site up. I have received extremely generous offers of support in the last few days. I've been aware of this single point of failure, but decided to ignore it, mostly because decentralization would be expensive. Since I acquired my own network, I have been stubborn and complacent in thinking that such a solution would be permanent. In the near future, there will be no single point of failure. Regardless of what happens, I will decentralize our setup across multiple datacenters. Other service providers are working on a solution which may restore access in the next few days. I am working on securing the network from DDoS attacks in the mean time. In an ideal situation, they will restore access eventually on their own. It is likely that these efforts disrupted the entire ISP and forced them to blackhole our network to protect other customers from disruption. However, prior to going down, we were being targeted by a DDoS attack and other forms of attempted network intrusion.
They are not answering my emails and I do not know why this has been done. This is a deliberate action from our host. When a computer tries to connect to our servers, the global network has no way to reach them. The forum is down because upstream ISPs have blackholed routes to our network.
