Suggestion: Do Not Click Any Imgur Links

This is a suggestion to not click on any imgur links

Did you notice in many QVR discussions the recent & significant increase of shills' shit posting comments with links to porn image hosted on Imgur?

For those not familiar with imgur, this is your reminder that each time you view an image on imgur, it automatically collects statistic about you. Including but not limited to your device IP address. In turn imgur could sell your private information for money to total strangers. In turn, black hat hacker could target your device.

If you really need to click on any imgur link, it is suggested to use a proxy to view the image. Which hides your IP. Proxy such as http://archive.fo

Alternatively use the free TorBrowser, which also hides your IP at https://www.torproject.org/download/

It doesn't help anything. They just switched to imgtc. They're not actually uploading the images, they're copying the URLs from Voat porn subverses run by SRS (/v/SoapBoxBanHammer). They're originally from reddit (/r/SoapBoxBanHammer), so a lot of the images are imgur because they're reposted from Reddit.

Here's proof "incellivision" (the mod of most of these porn subs) is a shill who attacks anyone who exposes SRS:

More proof SRS is responsible for flooding Voat with porn:

Proof many SRS posters are Indian Muslims paid off by Muslim oil billionaires:

Proof SRS are the ones shilling against QRV:
