on: ISPs should not police online speech no matter how awful it is
I'm curious what the function of publishing a targets home address, personal phone number, place of employment, and so on is supposed to be if they don't condone harassment. One might suspect that the rule against harrassment is just paper-thin ass-covering. Officially they'll also tell you they just collate and archive freely available information, while for example publishing and micro-analyzing the hacked bank statements of a streamer they don't like, with enthusiastic support from the moderators.

on: FLAC – Format overview
You can view it with a spectrogram, audio which has been lossily encoded will have a telltale cutoff in the high frequencies. The lossier the encoding, the lower the frequency ceiling will be.

on: Kiwifarms: Where the Sidewalk Ends
When CloudFlare suspended Nulls account, the only noted collateral damage was that a New Zealand based Neo-Nazi group named Action Zealandia were also knocked offline, if anyone was wondering what kind of customers his host was courting. Today the host goes by 1776 Solutions LLC, but it was originally incorporated with the much less subtle name Final Solutions LLC.

on: Kiwi Farms is down across all domains as DDoS-Guard terminates service
DDoS-Guard are in the strange position of being seen as a legitimate service within Russia, used by banks and telecoms and newspapers, but are almost exclusively used for illegal or unsavory purposes outside of Russia. They are well aware of what their global clientele are up to, but I assume they would rather avoid their domestic clients becoming too aware of it.

It's rare, but it has happened before. 8chan/8kun and Hamas managed to get suspended by DG.
