Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Cool.

It shut down after they exposed it? That's great, but I'm shocked the site owners cared about the exposure. (I haven't watched the video yet.)

No, she found exploits in the site and brought it down herself. Live. On stage.

By the way she described the incompetence of the admins, I don't think they had the brainpower to bring it back online.

Oh that's amazing. I have to watch that video.
