      They were fudged on reddit too so it makes sense they would be equally fudged on win

      Don’t think so because the number of comments are high too.

        That's because here, the feds post carefully to blend in; there they get to relax and post unironically.

      It helped that they had a 3 month period where they locked the whole sub and were able to recruit everyone from there to join the new site.

    The "hacked" warning is Google is a generic warning almost always related to spam. Things like black market pharma, essay writing, knockoff sports jerseys and the like. I'm not entirely certain why t_d would be flagged unless they've recently had an issue with spam/bot accounts posting spam links all over the place. The warning usually takes a few weeks to clear up because Google needs to reindex the website after a reconsideration request has been put through to Google.

    If the site was distributing malware it would say "this site might harm your computer" and that is a much more severe warning.

        Hmm, what's it say if you click on "may be hacked"? I wonder if there's a basis for it or if it's just google scaremongering about sites they don't like.

          I clicked on it myself and the pop up says that sites get flagged when someone suspicious adds/edits existing pages. So there's a very real chance that the mods fudging the numbers is what set off google's AI, and that the chuds don't need a real hacker to fuck up.
