https://rentry.co/chansIt has come to our attention that Ganbatte is running a Paedophilia network of spambots.
The lead admin is called Patch is running bots from South Korea and Russia.

There's a saying that goes something like "don't attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence".

For boards like /biz/ or /pol/ with real life implications I can definitely see bots as being fairly common, and /b/ had struggled with bots making porn advertising threads for many years. But 4/qa/?

Nanochan, a Tor-only imageboard, has been suffering from neglect from its administrators and mods. They seem to only check the site every few days, and the admin seems to check it even less.
They have left day to day management in the hands of a "trial volunteer" by the name "hikari". Trial volunteers have limited power; they are allowed to hide posts from the default view, but can't permanently delete them. Hikari is not a good moderator; he deletes posts because they disagree with his pro-pedophilia opinions, and he is wrongly convinced he can identify anonymous posters on a Tor-only board, claiming everyone who criticizes him is the "scat spammer."
Because the board was getting spammed regularly, one of the non-trial moderators changed the captcha to what is intended to be a harder version, in which the user has to compute the derivative of a polynomial to post. This significantly decreased the posting rate. The supposedly harder captcha is much easier to automate than the regular captcha, and because of poor design, there is a way to spam at a high rate without decoding the captcha image at all.
The change in captcha did not prevent spam, and as of right now the site is frozen, possibly due to a recent spam wave. If so, this would not the first time in recent history a spam wave has shut down the site. Attempting to post gives the following error:

>>77089In the name of such virtuous causes such as "saving the children" or "opposing radicalization" you get reform that further restricts general individual freedoms to combat a fringe population.

Especially with the recent pushes for section 230 reform that would inevitably end up with websites being more unmanageable for individuals leading to more control and activity flowing towards corporations.

Free speech exists in the Western world at the benevolence of democratic governments. If you let another force control it it's gone.
>>77091Opposing radicalism is intrinsic to protecting free speech. If a group of people are allowed to discuss together "hypothetical" means to overthrow a democratic government then they need to be regulated because they threaten the existence of free speech.

You're acting like 4/pol/ and other boards were involved in the unplanned boomer touristic visit to the capitol in any way. The most they did was spam threads about the event, then spam threads about how much it sucked and how retarded everyone involved were. Nothing was coordinated there (they're too paranoid and stupid to do anything), individuals calling for action were disregarded as "glowniggers" and sometimes deleted.

You may think otherwise but I believe to the point of saying I know regulation of speech is antithetical to the principle of free speech. A Free society doesn't decide what speech is; it lets each individual member decide what their speech is and further each individual member allows other members to decide what their speech is. The only interaction a government can have in regards to free speech is through the regulation/restriction of it. There is of course no functional difference between regulating or restricting free speech.

It's been literally unusable since 2017, and kind of had a crap community anyway.

Besides that, you then have to gauge the content of the posts and how the board is being used. Most people exclude places like hima, meguca or doushio when talking about activity because the posting format is a rapid-fire chat room atmosphere where a full sentence can be rare to find. It's an apple and oranges comparison towards more traditional places with multiple threads focused on different subjects.

I've seen his type of personality in other people before. I've seen him raid in action, in a server that has nothing to do with imageboards, and used alts and did it several times.

This /qa/ thing and some discussion about it made me think that hiro must be the only one permitted to delete boards and his lack of presence is leading to some minor issues. I think it's too early to say /qa/ will be deleted, but its current state now joins /qb/ the April Fool's board and /asp/ the alternative sports board that had turned into a wrestling shitposting board.
For those who may be unaware, /qa/ was frozen back in 2017 for a few weeks. People assumed it was deleted for good, but it came back. However, I feel I should stress that hiro was a pretty regular poster on it until late 2019 so it's possible he was the one that solely decided it should stay.

Maybe you could use archives to search for active threads since they're always scraping. It would work for boards like /v/ since "v" isn't a word people use, but you're screwed with boards like /a/. Maybe do a search for OPs only with "4chan" for more general discussion?

A MD5 link will only affect it's filename, thus preserving the original size of an image. If downloaded it will download just the original image, but with MD5 name
Embedding:The script will Embed a file onto another, so in the end you will have an image with another embedded image.
A Embedded file Will affect it's total size, because you are adding it to the original image. If downloaded you will download the original image with the added file, meaning you now downloaded two files together. But you can post it later, and will show that extra embedded file.

>>834064chan has had filters against crude forms of steganography -- such as appending a file to an image or putting a file in a large auxiliary chunk -- for some time now. Before the filters, appended files were occasionally used to distribute CP, but more often used to distribute books or music. Although against 4chan's rules, you can still post hidden content using slightly more sophisticated forms of steganography, such as the classic method of changing the last bit of every pixel.
As for the eye thing, it's not embedding files in the image, but just putting an MD5 hash in the filename. In order to use that to distribute CP, someone would have to be hosting the CP in a well-known location searchable by MD5 hash. If you posted CP to the boorus, it would be deleted and the hash banned. So there's little reason to block it, and if 4chan did block it anyway, it would be very obnoxious, because there are lots of files posted with their hash as the filename.

there are two scripts, one is what you mention, the other actually embeds things
No.83437
>>83433There are 4 scripts and at least 3 methods:
Scripts:– Third Eye: the original who introduced the MD5 method. Never supported any embedding method.
– PNGExtraEmbed/PEE/lolipiss: the one who introduced embedding and became the most popular of the bunch, also the most bloated.
– Media Embedder: like PEE but written in pure Javascript. Supports the same things as the other two.
– mrq's fork of Third Eye: added support for catbox embedding after regular embedding was blocked.
Methods:– MD5 linking: works by replacing a normal image's filename with the MD5 of a file hosted in a list of boorus booru, then downloading the external file and displaying it next to the "native" one. All scripts support this method.
– File embedding: There were different methods for each format. Only PEE and Media Embedder support this method.
–– PNG embedding: works by appending the file in the last IDAT chunk. Metadata information is stored in a tEXt chunk.
–– WEBM embedding: the file is embedded in a SimpleTag tag, with a TagName of C00M and a TagBinary that contains the file content.
–– GIF: the embedded data is contained in an application extension chunk, usually right after the NETSCAPE extension.
–– JPG: not supported because 4chan re-encodes files in that format to stripe out their metadata.
– Catbox embedding: similar to regular embedding, but instead of whole files there's only links to catbox.moe embedded, decreasing the "host" file's size by a lot and making it harder to be detected by 4chan's filters. Only PEE and mrq's fork of Third Eye support these methods.

I think a few years later they pulled everything that wasn't actually porn down for some reason.

>>84409>>84411>>84412>>84413The problem most YouTube competitors run into is that their goal is to be a YouTube competitor. Most of YouTube's strength comes from its ubiquity. It's
the place to watch and post videos, and you can't easily recreate that. No matter how good your YouTube competitor is from a technical standpoint, in the consumer's eyes it's just "YouTube with less content".
If you want to succeed, and this applies to everything, not just video hosting, you need to find a niche that hasn't already filled (or at least not well). TikTok is actually a pretty good example; it succeeded because it offered a service that YouTube didn't: YouTube is notoriously bad for shortform content, and TikTok is nothing

The biggest issue with that attempted software migration was trying to solve efficiency problems without sufficient testing to determine what was causing them. This resulted in unnecessary rushed attempts to move 8chan to not-yet-working software. After the fact it was discovered that 8chan's original software was choking on really inefficient statistics code that Josh wrote (not the only issue but what caused the decline prompting the emergency migration attempts), and Infinity Next didn't work well enough because of really inefficient captcha code Fredrick wrote. They could have figured these things out eventually and pulled off the migration, but things went sour after Jim Watkins demanded the code be relicensed to something other than AGPL, which would have allowed him to add data collection features to the software without publishing the code for them.

>>87431I think they do, occasionally, but you need people to see them and report on them. 4/qa/ had the greatest variety of users from 2015-2018 or so and that's what provided the greatest amount of varied content. Similarly, there could be something amazing happening on Bob's Fishing Imageboard right now, but if we don't have anyone here using it then it might as well not exist to the thread.
Maybe we've set the bar too high and we should just post cool things instead of necessarily major things. This is something I've been thinking about lately, but I haven't really had a chance to mention it. The other of course is that many imageboards are rather insular and might be strongly against being highlighted in such a way, so you kind of need to respect that.

side note, I’ve been working on merging all 4chan archive data I can find into 1 searchable database. Almost done with that, but is that even something interesting anymore?

>>87434>I’ve been working on merging all 4chan archive data I can find into 1 searchable database. Almost done with that, but is that even something interesting anymore?I think so. It depends on the size and I guess what it might offer that current archives don't. The sage.moe site should have been hugely popular since it offered a searchable and readable version of that archive.org guy's dump, but it really seems like people haven't used it to its potential, or at least people don't talk about it. I guess it could be the lack of images, but people were so excited about it that it's strange that interest in it only seemed to last about a week.

>>87459I think the big offering that I'll be able to bring to the table is actually being able to search everything. A lot of archives struggle offering search and I /think/ I found a way to do it well.

Once in a while the happenings thread on 4chan actually has something notable and this is a good example. The 4chan shimmie (booru for board-tans) seems like it might never come back, but someone has archived most of the content if someone ever makes another one:
https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/129590458/#129602894>>87606Threatening how? Do you mean from the host or from random individuals? You can try to demonstrate actions you've taken to fight it, I guess. Cloudflare has this, although from what I've seen it doesn't really do anything against the stuff that imageboards usually get:

8chan.moe finally banned the posting of images of minors in sexual contexts (think of the "subtle" pedo OP in 4chan's /tv/ if you have seen them before, with images and videos of little girls in bathing suits and commentaries about how "cute" they look). Most of the users who frequented these pedo threads immediately attempted to seek asylum in Kohlchan /int/'s own pedo threads, but were banned for being too obnoxious even for Kohlchan's standards.
Change in 8chan's global rules:

Some guy(s) leaked Duke Nukem Forever stuff on 4chan /v/. It's been a while since I followed that stuff, but it's a very infamous case of vaporware from 20 years ago. Supposedly they'll release it in June, but obviously empty promises and lies are the default for threads like this so it wouldn't hurt to remain skeptical.
