About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

Because secret #3 reminded me - that FFnet has finally been taken down. From what I understood, they had been supported by GoDaddy - who didn't approve of a few stories that consisted of child abuse. The people behind FFnet were apparently trying to appeal but still hadn't heard back.

I knew it was going to happen one day, but still weirdly sad about it. Of course there's a chance it could come back up but I'm pretty doubtful.

It’s there.

Re: About FFnet

It still works for me? Or do you mean it will be taken down in the near future?

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

That’s a doozy of an explanation for a nuking that never happened.

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

It's still up for me.

Source?

Did you hurt yourself stretching for your tin hat?

Re: About FFnet - the dumb OP

[(Anonymous)]

I think its been blocked on my end. I saw a post about ffnet having trouble with their servers earlier and thought I had connected the dots. My bad.

Re: About FFnet - the dumb OP

[(Anonymous)]

although for some reason isitdownrightnow is saying its out too. I am in the UK so maybe its just available for Americans?

Re: About FFnet - the dumb OP

[(Anonymous)]

UK here, it's fine for me.

Re: About FFnet - the dumb OP

[(Anonymous)]

Looks like you’re not as dumb as some of us said. downforeveryoneorjustme.com has a lot of user reports about it being inaccessible. The reports include the US. If it were just some countries, that’s usually a certificate issue. But this is global so it looks like it might be a DDOS or something.

The plot thickens!

[(Anonymous)]

It was down for a day or so for me, but now it is back up. Seems like a standard server move.

Now if we're talking sites with a child porn problem, two letters and a number spring to mind.

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

It's there and they've updated that they're actively working to move hosts. The problem was that GoDaddy was using AI to vet the complaints without a person actually looking at the complaints. A bunch of the reports about child abuse didn't even have children in them.

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

Where did they update that?

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

GoDaddy is not and never has been their host. You can actually look this stuff up.

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

That isn't what fictionpress (the owners of ff.net say) https://x.com/FictionPress/status/1812241025928409122. But maybe you know something they don't know?

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

But it IS what ICANN says. https://lookup.icann.org/en/lookup

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

I'm sure a bot system that looks up weird data on Web sites knows better than the people who actually own the site you're exactly right.

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

So you think the owners of ff.net are, for some strange reason, lying about their own host?

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

Omg, anon. *facepalm* They're using porkbun to hide their WHOIS record, including their domain registration. What you're seeing on ICANN isn't their actual info.

Here you are downthread saying other people don't understand the internet, while thinking "Private by Design, LLC" is an actual domain.

Re: About FFnet

[(Anonymous)]

Ah that might have been what the post I saw was referring to. I really don't know if its my internet server or something blocking it, but I'm not having trouble with getting to any other site just FFnet.

The Post I saw about GoDaddy being behind it
