AR15.COM is down. Godaddy booted them off their servers

Snipershide is also down. I don't know if it's for maintenance or for other reasons.

Its scheduled maintenance. They had a sticky on it for the past week.

So their idea is the same as what Britain did to porn. Make you opt in.

The ISP explained that because there are too many customers asking for the sites to be blocked, it will be blocking Facebook and Twitter for all customers unless they reach out to the company to request access.​

So much for personal responsibility. I mean, I thought personal responsibility was supposed to be a core value. Seems like a little personal responsibility would be "not going to bad meanie website". Kind of like how if people don't like guns, they don't need to have them, but the government shouldn't ban them for the rest of us because "scary metal bad bad" .

Stupid free market.

Well... Guess there's a market for pro-free speech webhosting... Who wants to group buy some servers and charge a mint?

You are going to have to run your own fiber optic too.

Stupid free market.

Goes both ways. If a private company can do what they want, then how why werent all the restaurants open?

Good test amigo ---- same results on my side. On my pinned tab in my main browser I can get to where ever, but using a "clean" browser it takes me to the backup.

Daniel tested as he didnt believe me. I tested it because I saw it here, and had just been on arf. I tend to be skeptical of this stuff, so it freaked me out when I confirmed. Appears to be at the ISP/DNS level. Whether that was by the ISP's choice, or happenstance because of whatever they use for DNS, I don't know. Crazy thing is, ARF was restricting posts to make sure they didnt get shut down by AWS since thats who they used for hosting. Pissed a lot of people off for censoring things, and it seems to be all for naught, since someone decided if they were still hosted, they'd just restrict access.

Same thing with Trump's tweets. If they hurt the precious little snowflakes feelings, they can just not read them, can they not?
