And one of the weirdest things ever is that over the last year or two there has been increasing crossover between Kiwifarms and British parenting site Mumsnet. Especially since the attacks on KF started last year.

Mumsnet has a big KF admiring contingent and especially admire the owner, Joshua Moon, for the lengths he is going to in order to protect the site in the face of repeated attacks. While most of the mumsnetters don't enjoy the edgelord language, they recognise the importance of the documenting done on KF. And how scary the level of influence that's being used against KF is.

There's even a thread now which fully details what to do to access KF on Tor where users will walk through anyone having issues. With occasional sidebars about how they'd like to make sure Josh is looking after himself and desire to send him a healthy dinner or find him a nice wife.

yeah, no other site has had every DDoS protection removed and dehosted by not just servers but carriers, least not without a warrant
