Why did you not include @ PuttItOut in your post OP?
It's good to put all the threads together the way you did, but in my opinion the scuffle(s) involves dumbasses that must think they are still at reddit, because that's what they do there: fight, complain, point fingers and whine like the crybaby faggots they are. That's why we're not there. That's why we're here. It is for me, at least. It's (violent scuffle(s)) not worth getting involved in usually. Even IF one of them has good intent and VOAT loyalty.
If you idiots see someone actually making threats, how about downvoting them and reporting the post. Lazyasses want to sit and live here on Voat, which is fine, but don't want to 'police' anything (downvotes, reporting, or maybe a disapproving comment).
We don't need shit-storming, but reasonable action is always good, isn't it? Or is that idea just gone from our society now? Either don't feed the trolls, or take some kind of reasonable action. I think this is a good website; and I enjoy my rantings and freedom to say what's on my mind. It's one thing to rant about the dumbasses on the 'left', reddit, etc, but it's another to come here and threaten someone, whether they deserve it or not.
If you keep sticking your dick up your own ass then we're exposing Voat to the same perverted horseshit contained under the reddit umbrella.
Fucking told you. As soon as voat got registered in USrael, I told you jews will eventually get their noses into it. Superimpose those triangles in a logo, and you'll get star of David.
Haha. This is glorious. I told all of you racist, homophobic, anti-Semitic haters that we would report this hate filled website to the proper people. Now all of your ilk will have to scurry back under your rocks. Blue Wave activated!

I've wanted this feature for a long time: A rolling anon/delete workflow that would operate on an expiration window... 30/60/90 days kind of thing that users could configure.
Putt can't announce that it's dead. It can be only deduced. Putt hasn't updated the canary for 4 months and has stated that he was contacted by a US agency. That would make the canary dead.
Technically, it's can't ever be "officially" dead, even if the agencies get unlimited full access to all data. But that's autistic thinking.
Maybe it's best people are forced underground to form new networks. You can't control the truth with a lie for long; the tighter you pull the thinner the lie becomes...until suddenly....it snaps. And the truth will rage. The truth will rage.
It was my threats against the Clintons wasn't it? Or countless calls for militias? I can't wait to see if my comments are removed so I know I spooked some spooks.
Honest posts about Hillary's family ties to the Chicago mob are perfectly legal, since they're true. @PuttItOut just wants goats to be civil. That's a sensible position for any growing business.
Couldn't he/they just remove the specific "item" or "items" received from the canary list -- and update the canary? A simple process of elimination would do the trick.
They can try to stop us, but it's too late for me. I've already redpilled family members, my girlfriend, co workers, and friends on the Jews. You can silence us temporarily Schlomo, but you can't stop us.
Well, I guess we will see how long it goes with out being edited.. The longer it isn't edited, the more likely putt is under a gag order and having to do secret stuff he isn't legally allowed to talk about......such as removing certain posts, or revealing IP addresses and maybe other information etc..
Decentralization would be extra hard, for a few reasons:
If anti-spam is ever implemented, it'd be damn near impossible to decentralize the servers without exposing the algorithms that do this
Advertising on this website reliably would be hard, and would require a full dev team to create it (which they they neither have the money nor time to do)
Banning spammers is either really hard or impossible.
There's a lot more, but decentralization of these servers would really do more harm than good. It would also sacrifice a lot of security principals for the sake of anonymity. And, if anonymity is the purpose, there are MUCH better ways to do this without sacrificing the CPU of all users involved in the project.
A lot of people talk about blockchain as a solution to a lot of things, but, in reality, it's really not a feasible solution to any enterprise-level application. It's not shocking that something like that doesn't exist, the blockchain is really nothing more than a buzzword techies in SF use to get funding for their app.
The sad thing is, true anonymity (with this specific website) would be impossible without distributing a Tor wrapper to access the website or an application that doesn't send your IP with any request. Even then, the government would still have the power to come in and say "hey, asshole, start tracking IP addresses," and we really have no clue how much the government can get into the TOR network. The only real solution is to protect your ass and use a trusted VPN, or use a os like Tails.
If anti-spam is ever implemented, it'd be damn near impossible to decentralize the servers without exposing the algorithms that do this
This encourages a robust algorithm that can't be gamed. Instead of straight up or down voting, it should be based on reputation, and in control of the user. So you could rely more on those you trust more, and you should be able to revoke reputation. Problem solved, no centralized authority.
Advertising on this website reliably would be hard, and would require a full dev team to create it (which they they neither have the money nor time to do)
If it's decentralized, then there's no need for advertising. All participants would also be hosts.
There's a lot more, but decentralization of these servers would really do more harm than good.
You'll need to spell it out, then. Because centralization has always been the weak point.
It would also sacrifice a lot of security principals for the sake of anonymity.
Huh? If it's Tor-based, it should give you MORE security.
And, if anonymity is the purpose, there are MUCH better ways to do this without sacrificing the CPU of all users involved in the project.
Like what? And just how much CPU are we talking about here?
A lot of people talk about blockchain as a solution to a lot of things, but, in reality, it's really not a feasible solution to any enterprise-level application.
Blockchain is just one possible solution.
we really have no clue how much the government can get into the TOR network.
That's true of anything.
The only real solution is to protect your ass and use a trusted VPN
What makes you "trust" a VPN?
or use a os like Tails.
Which is just a bootable Tor OS, which means you inherit all the risks of Tor (minus keeping any local records).
The "delete account" feature has suddenly stopped working. Probably at the behest of the feds so that everything is retained in the full database dump they're about to be sent. Assuming the worst isn't being paranoid at this point.
the only thing "delete account" accomplishes is locking yourself out of your own account.
I deleted my original account @MightyYetGentle years ago, and as a joke @Atko once logged me back into long after it was deleted and i was still receiving pings and DMs well passed when i "deleted it".
it's almost like all the people calling Voat a honeypot were accurate after whoaverse changed 🤔
*yawn*
there's already plenty of options; i keep tabs on them often. wish there were more people on there; until then, it's random casual shitposts for me.
Yep. @PuttItOut has a gun to his back. The thing about the right wing is we move like a wolf pack. No man left behind, Putt. We got this. Every play it cool. The Feds are here.
Hello fellow glowniggers, I love killing defenseless women and children, subverting and manipulating citizens, and ignoring legality and civil rights! Let's mass murder some citizens in a shooting from a hotel room and then use the act as an exuse to further remove their rights!
Oy vey, we need to remove more rights so that the great Jewish people suffer no more harm.
Did you know there were thousands of death threats made against Jews just last year? Hundreds of thousands of threats is nothing to sneeze at. 6 million threats against Jewish lives mean we have to do something!
It's probably me. Some liberal faggots probably got all uppity about my desire to see the world in a different place than it is now, took exception to the inflammatory-yet-just-shy-of-incitation-and-threats language I was using, and reported me to the FBI like a kike.
The Patriot Act gave the US government the ability to send National Security Letters (NSL) to internet services. A NSL gives them the ability to demand non-content data about users, like IP addresses, posting times, etc. It does not a require a judge's approval, because they can't use it in court against you. It's supposed to be about locating terrorists, but you know how shit like this works with .gov, it's soon about anything they want to spy into.
NSLs have the ability to prevent a service from even saying that they've been served with a NSL. (Most subpoenas, even if they have a gag order, will allow you to so say that you've gotten one as long as you don't talk about the content. A NSL prevents you from even saying you got it.) To deal with this, the tech community came up with the idea of canary notices. They can tell you not to admit you have an NSL, but they can't make you lie and say you haven't gotten one. It's like the old miner's canaries. They carried a canary into the mine, because methane and other poisons will kill a bird before a human. If the bird dies, it tells you that the air is poison.
So, the solution is that everyone puts up a notice "I haven't gotten an NSL" and updates it periodically. When they miss an update and don't correct it, it's evidence that they can no longer truthfully say, "I haven't gotten an NSL."
Putt just updated the canary, so we haven't gotten an NSL yet. He did say that we cooperate with proper authorities, which probably means that some glownigger was posting illegal shit. I assume we also cooperate on CP investigations (and sure as hell support us starting if we don't.)
Voat got funding from an unknown source. Canary stopped being updated. New post from the admin about watching content.
Puttitout is redpilled, so by not editing the canary and making that post he is screaming out to us to watch our backs. Puttitout is free to contradict me here, but that's the impression I am getting.
I got that part but how does this affect us goats? Is this a warning that the kikes are going to start trying to turn Voat into Reddit? I'm too tired from work to think right now.
Its supposed to mean that if voat were under gag order, that because they cant say anything, they could simply not update a post, and technically without saying anything let everyone know they are compromised in some way.
Some idiot asked put directly to make a statement about the carny the other day.
It's vague. Could be as simple as the feds asking Putt to take down a particular user's posts and share their IP address(es). Or there could be ongoing chicanery afoot. Post with caution.
A warrant canary is a statement on the site that says the owners haven't been forced to secretly give info on its users. If left unedited for a time it is considered "dead".
Red Flag laws likely being extended to allow pre-emptive ID of anyone using "violent rhetoric" online (this will have the broadest possible umbrella definitions - basically anything not enthusiastically progressive of mind), and they'll just demand full access to user databases to track individuals via their connection history etc (they'll already have all that shit from the NSA anyway, this just gives them direct legal avenues of attack/action with a usable paper-trail).
Of course, any serious rhetoric could easily be supplied by the interested agency itself to trigger the initial raid.
As with all their modern cyber techniques it's all super-untrustworthy and sketchy, lacking any real investigative rigor, which is why they need the supporting laws to allow pinning the broadest possible interpretation of a Red Flag on anyone (or any platform) they just don't like with no real recourse.

What's the canary?
Ezekiel_Balderdash ago
A warrant canary is a statement on the site that says the owners haven't been forced to secretly give info on its users. If left unedited for a time it is considered "dead".

Red Flag laws likely being extended to allow pre-emptive ID of anyone using "violent rhetoric" online (this will have the broadest possible umbrella definitions - basically anything not enthusiastically progressive of mind), and they'll just demand full access to user databases to track individuals via their connection history etc (they'll already have all that shit from the NSA anyway, this just gives them direct legal avenues of attack/action with a usable paper-trail).
Of course, any serious rhetoric could easily be supplied by the interested agency itself to trigger the initial raid.
As with all their modern cyber techniques it's all super-untrustworthy and sketchy, lacking any real investigative rigor, which is why they need the supporting laws to allow pinning the broadest possible interpretation of a Red Flag on anyone (or any platform) they just don't like with no real recourse.

Nah, I think its more likely they asked for IP addresses or something as part of an investigation.
