It is kind of embarrassing really that a city has the need do that in relation to your company.

Their relations were good in the past.

My research suggests that there was some outcry among Sammamish residents after Epik was reported to be providing services to Parler shortly after the January 6 Capitol attack. Parler transferred their domain registration to Epik on January 10, which aligns fairly closely with the timing of this statement.


Note that the ParlerTakes tweet screenshotted in Brett Hamil's tweet is inaccurate, most likely a case of the common error in distinguishing between hosting and registrar services that seems to plague Epik in particular. Epik stated they were not hosting Parler. Gab also claims to be using their own datacenter these days, for what it's worth.

That is interesting that the city feels the need to name a specific company just to absolve themselves of any connection to them, especially in relation to hate and hate speech.

I don't think that is some random coincidence.

Very likely people angry at Epik and RM contacted the city to complain about the political dissidents they host.

Wow. I don't know. I think it makes the Wikipedia article sound tame by comparison.

There is so much evidence documented all over the Internet. So much outrageous stuff. It is hard to see how RM or E can recover from the fallout. And the sad part is that it is all self inflicted.

Did you know neo-Nazis are designated as terrorists in my nation? :)

This is like Hal Turner on Steroids.

What's the definition of a neo-nazi?

Indeed. I am from Canada as well. In the US they are also terrorists which include the broader labels of white supremacists or white nationalists. That's why it is shocking to see RM cozy up to them in such an open way and promulgate their ideologies and conspiracy theories.

Seems like attacks on the company are nothing more than doing a good civil service with all context in consideration, don't you think?

Has anyone investigated if there are any researchers who got into trouble because the data was cursed by the CEO?

My laptop required an exorcism if that counts.

Who doesn't need to exorcise their devices from time to time anyway, though? Like defragging, it's a good habit to keep your computers in good working condition. Otherwise the demons build up and slow everything down.

It exposed serious vulnerabilities which the company apparently is not capable of resolving, their scraping of non-client data, inability to protect customers' private information, etc. As well as expose how deep links go to extremist actors and expose those actors. Am I missing something?

It is the start of a good summary.

Personally, I am interested in which service these people from South Africa are contracted to exactly.

"So we hired a bunch of South Africans, like an elite team of cybersecurity people. They only were at it for a couple of months in terms of setting up their operation. They were working for a high-level firm. And theyโ€™re Kingdom guys, so they work for the Kingdom. Theyโ€™re Christians. And the company that was employing them wanted to do some stuff that they didnโ€™t feel comfortable with, and so they quit as a cohort, four of them, actually eight of them, but four elite cybersecurity guys, and we hired them. So that was about a month and a half ago." (Epik CEO)

Well it is very apparent that RM does not have divine help nor help from the dark side to be able to curse data. OMG, this is some crazy stuff.
