She/her, btw. Also -



edit: y'know what i'm being too aggro i'll keep only the first half

The only decent thing Kiwifarms had was threads of actual pedos, zoophiles, and just outright those types of degens that need jail. Other stupid **** that is pretty much minute drama on art and conspiracy theorizing can be done without tbh.

Got any sources that prove the website encourages or was created for doxing/swatting/threats/etc? Because I certainly have sources that say otherwise. If you look at the site rules, it clearly states harassment, death threats and the like are strictly discouraged and enforced by the site operator, the moderators, and the community.

you’re kidding right
KF’s doxxing threads are known and pretty extensively detailed

just because site admins or mods or whatever say it’s against the rules doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. case in point literally every social media from Reddit to Twitter to 4chan. even here there’s plenty of stuff that breaks the rules that skirts on by. rules mean nothing most of the time

^^^^ exactly the same happens here on darkspyro in fact......................................................................... no for real the only reason i even KNOW the place exists is word of mouth OF all of the doxxing threads thats what it was known for

Literally every site ever allows doxing (Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, etc) so you can't really use that against the farms. It was also not created for the sole purpose of it either. Wanna try again?

someone before said it was created to dox chris chan or whatever can anyone point to that more authentically who would know better than me? because i think it was intended to do that

Kiwi Farms was founded in 2013 by Joshua Moon (known as "Null" on the website), a former 8chan administrator. It was originally launched as a forum website to troll and harass a webcomic artist who was first noticed in 2007 on a 4chan video game board.

The targets of Kiwi Farms threads are often subject to organized group trolling, harassment, and stalking, including real-life harassment by users.[2][4] Tactics include publishing their victims' personal information ("doxxing"), trying to get them fired from their jobs, reporting crimes at their addresses in an attempt to have police dispatched to their homes ("swatting"), and harassing their family members and friends. Some of Kiwi Farms' harassment campaigns have continued for months or years, and some aim to drive the targets to suicide.[3][21] The website originated to harass an autistic and transgender webcomic artist, but now hosts threads dedicated to harassing many individuals—particularly minorities, women, LGBT people, neurodivergent people, and people considered by Kiwi Farms users to be mentally ill or sexually deviant.[2][3] According to Le Monde, other targets have included feminists, journalists, Internet celebrities, video game or comics hobbyists, and far-right personalities.[7]

sooooomeeeee of those so-called sources can be really bad though i would NEVER use wikipedia as proof of something i could reference some really bad so-called sources on some pages i was just looking at the other day in fact to prove a point about that site at best it should be used as a starting point o go and do real research yourself THAT SAID i have not seen the page there and i feel like something like that opposed to an anime or video game or something might have a little more effort put into it

You must be new to the internet, my apologies for the assumption you knew how that site works. Wikipedia can be written and edited by anyone, and those who edit aren't always unbiased in their information (and neither are the citations for that matter.) So it can't be used as an reliable source of information. I hope I cleared that up for you.

Also, I'm not obtuse, I'm acute-y.

^this is a joke?

>openly antagonistic
>supports KF
>openly harasses a mod

buddy what are you trying to prove here other than youre a total dip****?

You know what's funny is I only even learned about this place's existence a short while ago. Like, I heard about in a youtube video, looked up the site out of curiosity, and then a few days later it went down. I must've had some sort of magical purging effect by accident.

everyone say thank u muffin man

Thank you Muffin Man.

None of those are true. I've been nothing but civil and kind, and I'd appreciate it if I could be extended the same courtesy.

Just because I stood up for the farms does not correlate to me supporting them. I only heard about this site due to the recent Keffals/KiwiFarms drama, so I decided to look into them more and do my own research on if these claims were true or not. After digging around on the site a bit, I came to my own conclusions. It's not my cup of tea, but honestly, it wasn't as bad as some people made it out to be. There was nothing illegal going on, so I didn't see why it should be censored and removed.

I'll stand up for the right for people to express themselves, no matter if I agree with them or not, no matter how heinous or absurd, as long as they're not complicit in breaking any laws, I'll be against ANY site getting shut down or censored.

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh..... DOXXING IS ILLEGAL

Wow, this thread really brought out the ****ing crazies. I thank the Hunters for promptly getting rid of them.

^reddit

To clarify some stuff: The legality of doxxing is pretty dubious, it's not specifically illegal. Though KF's activity would fall under cyber stalking/harassement which is (obviously) illegal.

depends on where you are in several states in america tehre are in fact state laws that render it illegal and even if not the action itself the result will be considered illegal ill double check my state

New York

"Most of the time doxing will be covered under New York’s harassment laws. You can also acquire charges under New York’s stalking laws.

If you accessed any sites illegally while digging up your information then the prosecutor will have the option to charge you under New York’s hacking laws.

The law recognizes that the criminal infliction of emotional distress is both possible and capable of leading to real, physical harm.

There have already been doxing arrests in New York. For example, two men in Bergen County released the private information of over 30 law enforcement officers and prosecutors. One was charged with computer theft, unlawful access and copying of a database, doxing, stalking, and harassment. One was only charged with doxing.

And while going after law enforcement is certainly a move guaranteed to stir a response, going after regular civilians can be just as legally damaging."

https://www.nydefensecounsel.com/is-doxing-a-crime/

and a direct law that just makes the action itself of doxxing illegal is going through the process now

https://www.nysenate.gov/legis...?intent=support

sharing peoples information, picture, texts, whatever is not okay in any form and i do hope laws worldwide start to adapt these views as they seeeeeem to be now to prevent the kind of harm that can be done by this stuff and to be honest the banning of KF might actually help this along because it could bring attention to JUST that sort of problem

defending kf and misgendering double trouble, whew, thank you mods

On topic, doxxing isn't a crime everywhere - it should when it comes to information you're not finding easily - but death threats, harassment, abuse, etc. sure is. Everything they did to Chris-chan alone should put a lot of them in jail (her included unfortunately, but that's currently being done), let alone cases that went more unnoticed. They had a kill count.

Wow I missed a literal dip****. Doxxing in the US (iirc Kiwifarms is most likely based at) is illegal and considered harassment if not encouragement of it. You need to be a actual criminal that enjoys doxxing to be out ignorant of it.

Too pure, too good, very undeserving of the slander this hellsite put on them.

^they are maddingly adorable creatures they truly truly are and i think that site should be considered slander to their name to be honest

We need to donate to Kiwi sanctuaries, to beg for forgiveness about allowing a atrocity of a site to have their blessed name.
