I listened to MATI for the first time in ages for the Turkey Tom drama, but instead I heard
something before the Turkey Tom that was much more worrying than Thomas smacking his e-bitches up (Tom, if you're reading this,
you do not want to become another William Control).
Null on MATI was dono-begging for his USIPS through the Github Sponsor Program saying
"It's just me and Kevin, mostly me, I've been working 10 hours a day every day to work on the custom security replacement for Cloudflare", saying he is using a $100 per month subscription to
the Spur IP reputation tool to block pedo-VPN addresses. As some of you know, the reason why Null has to manually verify new user accounts on KF is because of new accounts posting CP on KF, then reporting the CP they posted to authorities to get KF shut down.
What disturbed me was what Null said next: he said he wants to
"export that [Spur subscription] to Sharty and to 4chan, cos they can't afford it either, because it's multiple hundreds of dollars a month just for the IP reputation shit", so Null wants to make the Sharty
and 4chan dependent on him to get protection against pedos spamming CP on their sites.
My advice to Sharty and 4chan: crowdfund the couple of hundreds of dollars yourselves amongst your users and get your own Spur subscription. Do NOT trust Null to keep your websites safe. Do not allow Null to centralize your security into his own hands using his financial superiority to do so. It's rather alarming to me that someone purporting to want to "preserve the internet" would argue for this kind of centralization. Everything is better online when it's decentralized, this has been a founding principle of the free internet since its inception.
BTW, who is this Kevin "Internet Plumber" Crawley person involved with Null's USIPS, who appears to be based in Nashville, TN?
