GillH, we all know that Dofantasy are almost constantly monitoring this thread!
A quick wave to the Dofantasy rats reading this, my middle finger salutes you!
It's why the posted links on this thread that can be taken down by Dofantasy putting pressure on hosts of those links, get taken down almost immediately. It’s why re-up’s / "mirrors" of links are constantly requested and are so important!
This thread / site and others like it scare the shit
out of Dofantasy! Not just for the sharing of comic content, but (more importantly) the sharing of info, ideas and moral support! "ipsa scientia potestas est" - "Knowledge itself is power"!
I've learnt a lot about DRM, doxing etc from just reading through this thread. A lot of the IT tech stuff unfortunately goes over my head!
There are certainly cases where Dofantasy have been able to get hold of peoples info and have made threats to them, aside from the doxing, I really question if their threats of legal action etc are just "bark without any real bite", when you consider they are basically breaking the law via doxing etc and making other threats etc in the first place, and the fact they are the purveyors of porn containing rape, violent BDSM, torture, snuff etc. I can't see to many legit law firms wanting that case, or to many law courts (over numerous jurisdictions!) looking favourably at Dofantasy as a litigant!
I would agree totally with you that also some of the "panicked posts" are probably "FAKE NEWS" by Dofantasy to try to instil FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt) as a tactic to try to scare and diminish unity.
I'm no expert, far from it, just someone giving my two cents worth. My rule of thumb is unless you're 100% sure what you're doing is secure then maintain 100% anonymity and paranoia (LOL). That said BE ALERT BUT NOT ALARMED, don't be scared off just because someone is waving a stick. Even more importantly, "United we stand, divided we fall", strength in numbers. So all the cliché’s aside, a huge thanks to those who host this thread / site and others like it, who provide a forum, and all those who "crack" or track down content to share and those who share knowledge. You’re all LEGENDS guys!
PS - Stating the obvious, this thread and other sites exist in the first place, because Dofantasy over charge and don't provide a customer friendly process for product, so obviously people are going to look else where, so where does the blame lie!
