Hi folks, I'm sure you have seen @Pizzagatebot commenting by now. I started the thread here last week - https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1676126

Pizzagatebot is off probation and officially running on automated schedule on its own linode server.

It took a bit longer than I thought it would take since I didn't get a voat API and decided against using googles API, added some features to my host server like VPN, proxying and other tricks to try and avoid being tracked. The advantage is that all the code is my own so I know its safe and I can change any of it, vs taking someones off-the-shelf code from github, checking and learning their code and trying to modify/make it work for my needs.

Due to some peoples comments, I would like to reiterate that the bot is there to help link information together, not shame you for not posting those things in the first place. I edited my post with a new link and it ended up commenting in my post here - https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1684578

If you see it break or linking something ridiculous, just PM the bot with the permalink, I will check it from time to time.

If you folks have any other ideas for things that should be automated to help the community, let me know, can't hurt to mention it. For example, I have a few new test functions finally working that I will roll into the main code later this week such as:

• reverse image search to find posts with the same/similar image posted
• searching against deleted submissions to help some self moderate and alert other readers to this fact
• archive.is link resolve to search for original link

I chose against listing the date and upvoat/downvoat of the posts since I think it may discourage someone from finding something that may have otherwise continued to be overlooked and I don't really see it linking to anything that I would consider solid disinformation right now.

I can block it from searching for links to certain sites, I thought about it for undergroundnewsreport.com since it seems to be disinfo/COINTELPRO related. Any comments on that would be great.

Next up to bat is trying to figure out how to use different data analytics libraries for processing email/facebook/twitter data scrapes and see if there is anything interesting from automated correlation there. We need to use their own technology against them.

Thanks to everyone for keeping this community alive and I hope you all stay safe, aware, patient and vigilant. Cheers!
