She must be getting money from somewhere, and not just a tugboat. Newbury street is expensive, even by Boston standards.

A 1b 1br right next door is listed for $2,500 on Padmapper. That's not cheap, but you could cover that without much trouble on a Boston tech salary.

It's also a pretty common financial mistake among millennials. Get a new job? Time to blow 30-40k a year on a trendy apartment so you can live next to a boutique avocado toast restaurant that serves drinks out of ceramic jars!

So does Null want to tilt at a windmill? Because he actually has a federal complaint here.

The .US domain is localized for the United States, and thus gives all US courts jurisdiction by Jus Soli. Something even a .com or .org domain may not confer (thanks Obama). In order for a domain to register as .us, the top level administration must be an entity with US citizenship or residency, with the primary place of administration being within the territory of the United States. The fact that this was a .us domain is perfect, because this defeats all Jurisdictional arguments to argue there is no cause to bring action in US Federal Court. If it was a .com or .org, they could try and wave the "@Null is an international hobo" argument. Beyond that, just need make sure you pick the correct district, which would most likely be wherever Epiks servicing address is.

Next, you need to make a very specific claim of violation. A 1st amendment violation is the obvious one, but its a non-starter as your primary motivation. Just ask Tulsi Gabbard about her fight against Google. In this case, Josh could argue that Epik Defamed him (and by extension 9chan) by claiming 9chan is 8chan. Which is patently not true. He can then claim that this led to immediate tortious interference with active and prospective business contracts as their defamation also cause him to immediately lose the next URL selected. This line of attack has largely been the most successful to these kind of censorious actions, rather then just immediately reaching for the 1st amendment. You can also probably tack on breach of contract as well, and good luck with that.

Standard disclaimer I am not a lawyer, I just love following legal drama. I would recommend an actual lawyer who will probably tell you I am a moron, but he's willing to take your money anyway.

Eh, I kinda think your would be defamation claim has no grounds as they only correlated 9chan with 8chan in private, and the only reason we're aware of such a claim is because Null himself publicly posted it.

True, to an extent, but they did make public statements (and then deleted) that indicated very strongly where their thought process was. The private correspondence serves as confirmation for the obvious context of what they said and did publicly. I agree, its still an uphill fight on that particular cause, but its one that can still get the wikihow dogs nose in the door as it were. A Jury or Judge may still not buy it, but it has enough merit to bring up. And that is what feeds the far more obvious and sustainable claims. Mainly the Tortious Interference and Contractual Breach.

I am also not saying this is a slam dunk at all. All these censorious internet slap fights are a legal quagmire that exists entiterly in an area of the law our fearless leaders in congress have neglected for almost 20 years.

*edit*, and I am still not convinced the 1st amendment does not apply either, as this is a .US domain we are talking about. This is the national level domain registration for the United States specifically. In this case, Epik may land in the exact same area as a public utility. They aren't just applying a service. They are applying a service tied directly to communication within the United States. This is something that has NEVER been argued (to my knowlege) before though, but I can see how the argument can be made. Unlike any other domain on the planet, the .US domain registration is localized entirely to the United States and exists to facilitate communication within America. This puts it in the exact same category as the .GOV domain. The only difference being the GSA owns .gov, and private companies own .US.

Dear Mr. Monster,

Today your company made the decision to ban the domain 9CHAN.US, which in my understanding aimed to revive 8chan, the reviled imageboard website which was used by at least three domestic terrorists in 2019 as the first place they announced their attacks.

I commend this decision. However, your company continues to host 8chan's original domain, 8CH.NET, which redirects users to 8KUN.TOP, 8chan's new domain.

Your company also continues to host the domains 5CH.NET and BBSPINK.COM, which are the sources of income which keep 8chan online.

You have today made the right decision to not allow this type of website on your registrar. I have it on good authority that you, Mr. Monster, are telling people that you are not allowing any "chan" style website to use your registrar.

If that is so, why does Jim Watkins get a pass? Right now it looks like you are simply cynically banning his competition, instead of doing the right thing.

I believe that you want to do the right thing, as you've made the commendable step to not register 9CHAN.US. I hope that your continued support of Watkins' domains in light of this is a simple oversight. I ask that you suspend 8CH.NET, 5CH.NET and BBSPINK.COM, and stop doing business with Jim Watkins. At the very least, for the sake of consistency, 8CH.NET must be banned.

Kind regards,
Fredrick Brennan

EDIT: For context:
It's possible he hates 8kun enough that he is willing to take advantage of the situation.
Yes, that's exactly what's going on.

Okay. Wait. Am I mistaken or didn't he just recently give what seemed like support for Null and 9chan? What is with this two faced little goblin?

Yes, she's in some sort of nominally technical position at a company called HubSpot. From a tell-all book about this company:
criticism [is] particularly directed at Shah, the chief technology officer and an early investor, whose managerial style Lyons particularly objected to. In one chapter, Lyons describes how Shah once brought in a teddy bear, claiming it as an “innovative breakthrough in management science.” The argument was that HubSpot should be “solving for the customer” and that the teddy bear, named Molly, represented that customer. “I cannot believe this. Here are grown men and women, who I presume are fully sentient adult human beings, and they are sitting in meetings, talking to a teddy bear. And I am working with these people. No: worse! I am working for them,” Lyons exclaimed.
In amongst White's tweets, there is a certain amount of ambiguity about her sexuality. She describes herself variously as lesbian or bisexual (seemingly dependent on convenience). I believe there is a tweet in there where she mentions that she is, in fact, currently fucking a man.

She is also an actual woman who appears to have been promoted within technical roles within a company that at least pretends to get work done for the benefit of the VCs funding it. Is she fucking her boss? I can't say for sure.

Nah, he basically just said '9chan is better managed than 8chan' a couple days ago, as part of his usual bleating against Watkins.

He could have included 'but it's still a free speech platform, and my bosses have told me to try and shut it down' in that tweet, but he delayed saying that until now.

So he pretty much pulled some cowardly shit and waited for someone else to throw rocks first while seeming half ass supportive. Checks out. I will say, after seeing Qanon lose their shit when he voiced said half assed support, I kind of wondered if he did that just to poison the well so Null couldn't get to milk that titty too. They might be crazy but they're more than willing to throw money at people that let them ramble. Those merch runs would have been nuts.

Check out her Github page, for anyone with a technical background it's pretty hilarious. It manages to hit pretty much every stereotype about female """tech""" employees - baby's first Twitter bot? Check. Multiple projects related to her cats? Check, and check. Using Github to host text documents for some reason? Check.

Even if you hadn't posted those articles about HubSpot's cult-like culture, the fact that White works there would be a massive red flag.

At first I was relatively optimistic about Josh going back to infinity next, I thought it was a nice idea. But as he worked on it he kept mention 8chan over and over, and thats fine since the project started with 8chan. However, it started to come off as him trying to hold up some middle finger with it, to prove that he was superior in someway. Whether that was to the establishment, the pig farmer, or the dwarf doesnt really matter, but he solidified it with obsessively trying to name the site with some sort of reference to 8chan.

That brings bad mojo, and even fucking african tribals in mud huts know that talking about and working with bad shit gets you.... bad shit. Yes, Epik did something very gay and used the moderation shit as an excuse. You wanna know what doesnt help with that though? going to the most popular board on the website and seeing this

They were completely right no matter how you look at it. The dwarf said this is better managed then 8chan, pft yea maybe because its fucking dead. This could all just be cp right now, the site spins completely out of control when josh goes to sleep.

She uses "tech lead" as her job title, not to be confused with "senior developer". She's not a programmer, she's the token female that's been kicked upstairs to project management.
