Voat & PIA VPN Giveaway! (Voat)

submitted ago by PuttItOut

From Private Internet Access:

Dear Goats,

The internet is not meant to be censored.

Private Internet Access has generously donated to Voat users, 20 x month-long free trials of their no-log VPN service. Voat is going to give these out to Goats in the first official Voat & PIA VPN Giveaway. This is the perfect tool to Unblock the Web and say "FUCK CENSORSHIP".

How to enter:

Submit a picture of your middle finger raised and a verification sheet of paper that says "FUCK CENSORSHIP".

Here is an example:

Winners must agree to post a follow up about their experience using PIA.

From Putts:

Isn’t it funny, that in a time when most websites try to prevent VPN access, Voat is promoting it? This is because tools like PIA help you to protect yourself, and it’s best to “always use protection®.”

I’ve been using PIA personally since they reached out to us during the New Zealand ISP blocking and I have been very impressed. We both thought that you Goats would like a little something so we're spreading a bit of love around.

Since this is Voat, I want to mention a few disclaimers:

  1. Keep the picture doxx free (obviously!)

  2. We reserve the right to deny your entry for any reason (expecting shitposts)

  3. First come, first serve

How it will work:

If your comment (post it as a reply to this submission) is approved, we will PM you the free month trial code along with some simple instructions on how to get started. Have fun!

Edit:

Ok, we wrapped this up (mostly). Thank you to all who participated. I think you'll like the experience and I hope you enjoy using protection. ;)

Do me a favor Voat… One person got finger-shy and deleted their submission. I have saved one code for this person. PM me you shy goat you and I'll send you the code! It's waiting for you. :)

You've got to be kidding me.

the palm/back of the hand are uniquely identifiable signatures.

You're actually asking Voat's hypersecurity focused userbase to dox themeselves for all artificial intelligence bots/intelligence agencies to see?

We already have facial based image recognition, gait based unique identifiers, and even unique typing/clicking signatures that Google uses to verify captchas

@think- @vindicator @shewhomustbeobeyed @argosciv we need an alternative platform asap

LOL, it's funny because it's true. Left hand, glove, burner phone. Only Voat.

NOMOCHOMO ago

Speaking of true, is there any truth to this users claim:

I guess you missed my point that putt got DHS fed warrants served and now is seizing QRV.

https://voat.co/v/GreatAwakening/3232959/18748441

&

In light of his recent revelation that the Department of Homeland Security has served him with warrants

P.S. I'm srsly entering the contest. I have a bunch of domains I ought to register before 2020

At this point why would anyone believe Q people? Especially mods. If clown world is a thing, they are living it as well.

srayzie ago

Are you talking about QRV mods? Or all Q people, especially mods?

@PuttItOut, look who is making the claims...

9-11 is not a "Q person", he/she is a v/realProtectVoat turd. This should tell anyone reading this, plenty about the reason for such asinine claims.

Consider then, why NOMOCHOMO would try to stir the pot using 9-11's bullshit, given also NOMO's initial response in this submission which o course rings true to the same "VOAT COMPROMISED!" narrative that v/realProtectVoat goons push.

@Crensch @kevdude @Vindicator

@crensch @kevdude @Vindicator

which of course rings true ...

(((foregone conclusion + implication + association)))

if you look at my comment history, I first asked @9-11 to substantiate their claims.

When they didn't, and Putt replies to me, I'm not going to waste the opportunity to ask him directly.

Ok Nomo. Just a piece of advice: the way you are doing this looks shillish. You get in Putt's face, quoting a narrative pushed by one of the most malicious Voat attackers, in a similar rude, confrontational way, only one Title Herehour after asking 9-11 to substantiate his claims. It's not like you waited long or even investigated it at all for yourself before launching your own

(((foregone conclusion + implication + association)))

Furthermore, it's a follow-on to your statement that:

we need an alternative platform asap

Another huge shill talking point.

So yeah. @Argosciv, @Crensch, me -- and anyone else who seriously cares about who is trying to undermine Voat and how -- is going to take note.

I'm also noting that you replied to Putt's good natured "You're insane" with the claim he was Jewing you with an ad hominem attack.

Hard to tell if you were joking there, since here you clearly use the same approach to seriously imply Argo is out of line and merely running Jew smear tactics against you.

You also comment as if Argo somehow should have known you were not aligned with 9-11, despite the fact that you only made the comment to 9-11 an hour before, deep in a completely different thread on a completely different board. That is disingenuous.

This bullshit again? I AM ASKING QUESTIONS. Why are you discouraging that?

You get in Putt's face,

You mean my comment on his post in which he's asking for ADDITIONAL DATA from Voaters? The one where I tagged you? Boy I'm sure invading Putt's personal space. I'm a big meanie.

quoting a narrative pushed by one of the most malicious Voat attackers,

What "narrative" am I quoting? I gave my own opinion, then I directly quoted somebody else's recent accusations and asked Putt if there was any truth to it.

in a similar rude, confrontational way

How long have you been on the internet? ....And how long have you been on Voat? I was confrontational. How was I "rude", and why does that matter?

only one hour after asking 9-11 to substantiate his claims. It's not like you waited long or even investigated it at all for yourself before launching your own

I spent that one hour independently trying to verify those claims you presumptive douche. SearchVoat, Putts history, and other tools didn't turn anything up.

Some of us don't like "waiting" or "trusting the plan". 9-11 didn't respond, to me, but Putt did (albeit in a different thread). Of course I'm going to ask the other party involved in the accusation. That's a fundamental part of an INVESTIGATION.

Considering the accusation was Voat is pozzed, and an hour later Putt begins a VPN giveaway, I don't think it's an irrelevant concern. The TIMING was the REASON I asked the question.

we need an alternative platform asap

Another huge shill talking point.

So yeah. @Argosciv, @Crensch, me -- and anyone else who seriously cares about who is trying to undermine Voat and how -- is going to take note.

Setting up alternative platforms asap isn't a "shill talking point". It's basic security and common sense. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Nobody has explained why we should trust PIA's parent company. Voat can be undermined on a corporate and administrative level as well.

I'm also noting that you replied to Putt's good natured "You're insane" with the claim he was Jewing you with an ad hominem attack

He was Jewing me with an Ad Hominem attack you silly boomer :)

You also comment as if Argo somehow should have known you were not aligned with 9-11, despite the fact that you only made the comment to 9-11 an hour before, deep in a completely different thread on a completely different board. That is disingenuous.

Argos dedicated a subverse to me called v/lampshadematerial in which he cross references the timestamps of my posts to other users to try to accuse me of using alternative accounts.

https://voat.co/v/Lampshadematerial/2934223/15796315

This is your comment from 5 months ago from one of those threads. You know that Argos closely follows my comment history trying to "catch me"

I am not being disingenuous, you are being dishonest @vindicator
