And I agree with Scientists that the fact that Yaniv is being defended by the tech world most likely points to a certain set of shared interests leading to backchannel relationships and communication. Which would explain a lot about the major social media platforms, honestly.

Duck duck go has theothermacain.com page about him as the top hit. It doesn't pull its punches either.

Can anyone tell me what TPWMNBN means? I missed it. Sorry to go back so far.

I'd hazard a guess at The Person Who Must Not Be Named. Other people might choose another word for P.

Multiple valid options for the P, really.

I get the same as Nauticant: Miranda, the Twitter, Kiwifarms.

Above top secret have quite a bit on the moron too.

Thank you. I really need to be more awake to read these threads sometimes.

I've just started reading the kiwi farms thread and while I've heard of this man before (the waxing lawsuit) I hadn't realised the full depth of his depravity.

Has everyone already forgotten jimmy saville hiding in plain sight? Or did they not hear of him in Canada?

Apparently this guy heard of Saville and saw him as inspirational.

What, you mean he sees himself as Savile's apprentice or something?

Angry are you joking?

It's all part of the same ring isn't it.

Gallows humor, innit? Though I'm going to guess that predators don't view Saville the way normal humans do.

And yeah, Captain, I used to think speculation about there being some kind of international ring of rich and powerful pedos was tinfoil hat stuff, but the last few years have forced me to reconsider that.

The same Angry this last year has really opened my eyes.

I get the same search results.

What I've said privately some time ago, isn't far off what I feared would play out. And I thought I was being particularly dark at the time.

I think the same AAK.

A senior twitter engineer was convicted of raping their wife, while her children were in the house. mobile.twitter.com/radfemfatale/status/1072846678527361026?s=19

Note lack of serious custodial sentence. 3 years suspended.

Said engineer also had serious clout at Wordpress and was alleged to be instrumental in getting Gallus mag locked out as admin on Wordpress and getting Cathy Brennan’s gender identity watch site taken down.

Wordpress was accused of altering blogs without the owners knowledge: 4thwavenow.com/2018/11/17/wordpress-dumps-gendertrender-gallus-mag-responds/

The actions of large platforms like twitter and Wordpress should be open to scrutiny.

There’s also an important point here that when we allow a few social media platforms to dominate and we live so much of our lives online, we hand them huge power. Those platforms have massive ability to censor or promote whatever they want with no scrutiny. It’s a powerful case for busting the monopolies they hold and diversifying to multiple, smaller, open platforms.

Yes timelady
That is a read
Ffs how has this been allowed to happen
Just how
It’s so disgusting to read what that person is up to in full view
Actually made me feel sick and frightened for any young girl

I think we all know that the reason they are clearing the internet of all traces is because he is what we have been banging on about all the way along. And they know it.

'Twitter’s toxic misogyny just helped knock 11% off its stock value'
(extract)
Twitter’s stock price fell 11% to close at $29.29 Thursday after an investor note declared the company “toxic” and called it “the Harvey Weinstein of social media.” The note came in the wake of a recent Amnesty International report condemning harassment on the site.

The investment firm, Citron Research, is led by Andrew Left, who had announced in March that he had a short position in Twitter’s stock, CNBC reports. It’s not mentioned in the report if he still has that position.

“Citron has been following Twitter for years and when we read the just published piece from Amnesty International, we immediately knew the stock had become uninvestable and advertisers will soon be forced to take a hard look at all sponsorships with Twitter,” according to the report, which sets a price target of $20 for Twitter stock."
