      Can you expand on how to do opsec? Should I start using a proxy to browse? Is it possible to trace the IP of users, if not by feds but by chuds?

        If you post any images from your phone, clear exif data first.

        Even with a proxy, you might be trackable if someone links to a honeypot site. Check https://amiunique.org/fp for all of the data a server receives before it loads a webpage. That data can be collated with commercially available data sets to get personal information.

            Best practice is still to clear this (and any other potentially identifying metadata) before upload in the extremely unlikely event that someone tries to MITM you.

              MITM is unrealistic. It would require state-level actor capabilities to MITM a TLS connection (you'd need to control a certificate authority, or at least have access to a signing key), and it's a targeted attack (so they'd need to be targeting a user specifically to employ one). Anyone who's being targeted by an SLA and doesn't already know to wipe exif data is probably doomed tbh.

      Right-wing groups track this website to bully users and build their own morale about how our side are all weak losers. Not because they are feds.

      How do you do, "comrade"? Would you mind telling me what "ligma" is all about? 😛

    It's probably just a bot that looks for key phrases and then once a week some jackass looks at the charts. I don't think anybody is actually reading all of our posts. If they are, post that fed dick please, I don't lick boots, show me something I'll actually lick and we can talk business.

      I wish I were the fed so I'd get paid to browse instead of having to hide on the toilet, in the break room, or sometimes not hide it at my desk

      I remember the night of the R*ttenhouse shooting we had a weird dude posting for 3 hours about how badly we needed to start a bloodbath and how his biggest hobby was killing people at the country clubs. I can’t remember the username, but it got bad enough that people were making meta posts telling him to stop lol.

    If they don't it's only because they see us as too small to be relevant

      We have 9000 members and rapidly growing. I can guarantee you they are observing us, not manually by having an agent browse this site, but using deep-learning algorithms to assess the level of radicalisation, rate of growth, identifying highly active users etc.

    Dear Federal Agents. I am prepared to become an informant. I don't have any personal information on anyone here because the site is anonymous, but I can explain our funny bits and gags in extreme detail, as well as report on any terminally online drama that may occur.

      But we gotta vote for Joe Biden, the most progressive candidate ever, to prevent fascism, because I'm sure that Trump will respect the results. /s
