I just came across it. I'm not sure what to make of it.

1. It doesn'y appear so to me...

:thumbsdown:

[Cali_Democrat]

2. Obvious racists posing as "Obama supporters"

:puke:

[RandomThoughts]

3. The first threads I read were crazy.

So if it is real, its got very little moderation, some provocateurs or it is :crazy:

I read a couple posts that look like provocateurs, they spoke about the chip implants(something I think should be illegal) with a way of speaking that would freak out many people of many faiths, it also had violent imagery and racism.

5. Dynadot Privacy is basically a way for anonymous hosting.

So it doesn't mean much except that they want to be hidden, and anonymous.

6. I just called them and

the guy on the phone said they are not maintaining the website, he said the owners are using
their privacy contact, sounds suspect to me, the authorities need to look into this.

[Tim01]

7. Wow, it didn't take long for somebody to talk tech over my head.

"using their privacy contact"

Could you tell me what that means?

[Tim01]

8. Can somebody tell me what that means? nt

[Catherine Vincent]

9. Apparently no one knows

:shrug:

12. Ok

When one registers a domain name, ICANN rules require that the registrant provide sufficient contact information: Name, address, phone number, email address. That information is called WHOIS info. Many domain registrars offer a WHOIS privacy service, where one can hide WHOIS information from public view.

13. Anybody registering a domain name can use a privacy choice to hide their information

At one point I had a domain name and planned to donate it to a volunteer group so I did not want my name and home address listed as owning the domain name. I signed up for the privacy protection through the domain name registrar.

No big deal usually but it is a way to hide the actual web site owner for nefarious purposes.

14. I just don't know.

That site is exactly what the right accuses the left of being,so it seems like a plant or something.

On the other hand there are right wing extremist sites, we all know about them.

So maybe the site is legit with its demands for government control of the internet for the good of the cause,the list of right wing sites they want shut down, and all the crazy rest of it.

But it just seems too ridiculous.

19. I use anonymous registration all the time.

It's not all that unusual. In fact, I think the fact that some of us tried to find the contact information shows why this person did it. Anyway, people are allowed to have stupid opinions and stupid sites in which they post their opinions. *clearly the creator of that site is not a fan of the president.

10. It's hosted on a server in Amsterdam

So, no. It's not in any way associated with the Obama administration.

[Chorophyll]

11. Gotta love the juxtaposition of their banner ads:

"Tired of paying child support? Learn how to beat the system" right next to "The Big Church: bringing people together in love and faith."

Ah, wingers. If they knew only how funny they were...

[Tim01]

15. Bump

Still hoping somebody knows the story on this freakshow.

[Canuckistanian]

16. That. Is. Bizarre.

It seems to be a bunch of racists posing as "radical black activists".

Some of them aren't too clever, though, with their Nazi avatars.

[Regret My New Name]

17. Nahh, it's pretty obvious what it is.

[spanone]

18. bizarro world....bunch of freaks
