  1. One of the worst things you could call someone back in the day and back in the place was “shit heel.”

    What a bunch of shit heels.

    I think patriots should resurrect this pejorative.

  2. This happened to my site in January and again last week. The first time was because a DDoS attack on Patriot Retort crashed the entire server. Last week the server crashed and the host suspended sites until they determined the cause and fixed it. It wasn’t nefarious.

    Best not to assume the worst.

  3. Why say ACCOUNT SUSPENDED on the alert page???
    It sounds like someone did something egregiously wrong.

    Shouldn’t it say, “We are experiencing technical difficulties. Please check back. We expect to clear this up shortly” ?

  4. I’m concerned about this, it seems to be an issue on some of the FB pages I visit as well. Is there another conservative social media network that is popular? We should all have well known “hub” to reconnect with incase google FB twitter and YouTube decide to shut everyone down.

  5. Fur,
    You would think. In fact, last week when they moved my site to a different sector of the server, the swapped the “suspended” message out with one that said “under maintenance” since it was going to be down for a full day.

    I think that suspended message is a default. Because that is the exact, identical screen that I got.

  6. I don’t know exactly how sites like thepiratebay.org stay up. I read things about self replication and once they crack down, it instantly pops up somewhere else. It’s virtually impossible to kill. Wonder if it’s possible to use the same/similar technology?

  7. https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch

    They have identified 917 hate groups as of last week.

    By aggregating all the HATE into one site, exactly how are they themselves not a hate group?

    Think about it, you have access to all 917 groups from this aggregate. No where else could you go beforehand to have such a comprehensive list.

    Their front is trying to put on a witch hunt to these groups. Those that witch hunt hate groups are suppose to be what, angels? Hahah, no, they are hate seekers, the most hateful and intolerant of any singular hate group.

  8. While we waste billions of dollars electing FRAUDS,

    Conservative ought to pool their money together to buy up there own web servers to host content, and Internet Service Providers.

    We’ll slowly get scrubbed from the internet individually.And if you get a domain overseas such as Korea or -istan country, it will cost you an arm and a leg, and American ISP can just block the website from ever reaching American computers unless you have a work around like TOR or something, just like Iranians and Chinese need to use.

  9. I had this happen to both my websites last week. One is a sci-fi fan club site and the other is my Submarine Veteran group.
    My wife owns the off-site servers that host them, and it took her about two hours to get my websites (and her own photography sites) back up and she still doesn’t know what happened.

  10. Well, according to their web site Site5 is a member of the BBB so Ann oought to file an official complaint with them regarding Site5. I probably won’t come to anything but it will be registered and they will have to answer it. It might be a little thing but it may force them to justify their actions in writing.

  11. I saw the story come up here between page refreshes and typed in the address immediately. Her page loaded normally.

    Can set up networking, sub net it, get right down in the nitty gritty of the TCP/IP part, but I don’t know hosting or application layer fer shit.

  12. Linked into Ann B’s site with no problem. But Billy is correct – stay alert. Too many lowlifes out there looking to mess things up. I trust many of these operations as far as I can pick up and throw my house.

  13. As TheDailyStormer implemented too late, a simple Tor service status page about your other (typically Internet) venues, is bulletproof (“allegedly” – if implemented according to directions).

    If your content is served by a singular system (Blogger, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) it won’t help with recovering that content. But you can still inform the curious about what’s going on. If you have the ability to restore your content (because it’s on a replaceable system), or if your Domain Name Service has been taken but your hosting is still intact, a simple “The new Internet address is:” can be put right on the status page.

    Related to @Gina’s (August 25, 2017 at 4:21 pm) post: Singular status pages, on separate, real hardware are more resilient, more work, and more susceptible to different technical mistakes. Open posting sites are popular Tor services, but you’ve got to expect sharing the page with fake Viagra, “genuine” heroine, and everything else you can imagine (and a few I hope you can’t – free speech isn’t just the speech you like). It’s no more difficult for a single user to set up a page of “Links I find interesting” than a “Status of my stuff” page, with the caveat that relying on it for all your favorite links creates just one (rather than many) new point(s) of resilience.

    As for TheDailyStormer’s error: Set up your status service. Get (or have your IT “staff” get) comfortable with it’s workings. Then post the Tor service address on your Internet sites. Before (hopefully long before) you need to update your status. If something goes wrong, your regular readers will have the correct, but “weird”, onion address already. It’s very difficult to “spread the word” after you’ve been silenced.

  14. And the related, but different enough “addenda” post: If you expect a degree of technical experience from your (more vocal) users, you can post an OnionShare link, instead. It’s less (casual) user friendly than a single page site. But it doesn’t require it’s own hardware. You’ll probably have to rely on those who can learn to get the shared file (which can be a “web” archive, of course) to “spread the word”.
