This was sent to me but one of my tech illiterate friends. Thoughts on this? Seems sketchy af. The video on TikTok is like, "It's fun. Add your person." Being that it's all federal offense to dox the ice nazis, I'm feeling like this shit is a honeypot?

Edit:turns out the picture uploaded to my cache on my browser but not to the server so this post looked dumb and empty. Put the picture below in the comment thread.

First, I didn't want to give it attention by directly linking because it's sketchy af. The image has the link.

Second, I am asking for your opinions before giving mine. Is that not OK?

Third, ok. I just thought folks in opsec would have thoughts about a site potentially harming anti ice activists. My bad.

I'm not seeing a picture, and even then, we would not be able to give any insight from a picture alone

Ohhh weird. Pic shows in my app. Must be a cache issue. Ok, that's the confusion. Oof. We'll the site is spreading all over socials as of my initial post here. It's called icelist. Supposed to be a crowd sourced project.

It's not genuinely suggestions I was hoping for but essentially to let people with industry smarts know. That's all. I did dig to see the fucking thing is hosted in the US and looked at the media ramp. No mention of privacy measures at all. I'm thinking it's a group of people who probably are "meaning well" but they're going to get a lot of people in trouble when the feds come for the site.
