Coalfax.me has apparently been FBI'd

Coalfax.me has apparently been FBI'd (whatever)

submitted 4.8 years ago by tanukihat

A lot of people are asking, so I'm going to copy-paste the same reply to them all.

Something happened. Our web dev guy took the site down and deleted the source code. It took me forever to get an update out of him, and he won't discuss any details. I believe he got a visit from the FBI or local law enforcement. He's being way too cagey about the whole thing, more reluctant to discuss it than I consider normal from this person. He'd tell me if it were any other reason. I believe he's under legal pressure not to discuss it. I feel bad for him.

So, we got on the news twice, we made a lot of people very very angry, and we showed the world that there are still people who don't subscribe to the Gospel of Diversity. I feel like we accomplished our goals. I'm sad the site died, but I'm glad my friend wasn't disappeared into an FBI black site. Someone else may take up the Coalfax mantle now. Our cause will never die.

Thank you to everyone who submitted coalburners and supported us. We, the silent majority, still exist.

I would bet my left nut (the one that hangs lower) that there's multiple websites out there that have lists of white people who have said something un-PC/ racist, compete with their info in a similar, if not worse, fashion that coalfax did.

Funnily enough one gets shut down while the others persist.

There's a Forbes story called "How Teens Are Using Anonymous Google Docs - And Enlisting a Youtube Star - To Out Allegedly Racist Classmates". Said I couldn't link to it on here when I tried so you'll have to search for it.
