It's a forum dedicated pretty much entirely to doxxing, swatting, stalking and harrassment. It's also where the Christchurch New Zealand mass shooter's live stream and manifesto were hosted.
"Here's the personal info on this person that we all hate and constantly talk shit about. It includes their address and contact information. We're totally putting this out here for innocent reasons. We trust you guys won't go harass these people now because that's against our rules!"
swatting, stalking and harassment are banned on the site and always have been (look, don't touch) and there is not a single bit of evidence that the mass shooter you speak of even knew KF existed. You're thinking about mainstream social media.. That's where he streamed the shooting from.
"It should be noted that no ethically-trained software engineer would ever consent to write a DestroyBaghdad procedure. Basic professional ethics would instead require him to write a DestroyCity procedure, to which Baghdad could be given as a parameter."
It's obviously not the only place they was hosted, or the place they were originally posted (I think the manifesto originated from 4chan and the stream would have been Twitch or YT or some other live-streaming platform - no idea which).
cloudflare’s servers were hosting and redistributing abusive material and private information non-consensually leading to suicides?
KF is still on the internet, they’re free to handle their own traffic and find a cdn willing to take their (apparently blatantly neonazi named) operating company’s money
Kiwifarms is a site that is implicated in several deaths, several swattings, and had knowingly hosted videos of, for example, the Christchurch shooting.
It is a hotbed for stochastic terrorism. It should be welcome to exist online, but Cloudflare providing it protection undermines Cloudflare's own reputation.
Yes, KF hosted videos of the Christchurch shooting, as well as many others. That's unrelated to your assertion the site, which is of many thousands of people, are "implicated in several deaths". It is not. Nor is it a participant in swattings.
If there were a shred of credible evidence of those things, then you should be communicating with the FBI or any law enforcement agency you're able to engage with.
I hope KF's owner sues the absolute crap out of the media outlets and any personal not hiding behind a nym for defamation, as I think this level of speech has risen to it.
London Ontario police department said that Keffals was the target of swatting. Keffals was doxxed by KF, and the site has a whole long thread on her. I doubt anyone was stupid enough to type out, "let's harass her!" But if you can't connect the dots here you've got your head in the sand.
well the shooter was wearing a shirt that said "kiwifarms sent me". He also left a sworn testimony at the scene of the crime that said "i'm doing this because of kiwifarms"
I've heard people claim this, but I've never seen any evidence which supports it. I've read threads on the forums there, and have never seen anyone trying to get anyone else to commit suicide. In fact, interacting or even promoting interacting with people whose actions are catalogued and talked about on the site, is heavily dissuaded.
Do you actually have any evidence to the contrary?

He streamed on Facebook... The stream and manifesto I saw on other sites... not kiwifarms unique... What else...
Doxxing, yes. But any discussion about harassing people will get you banned.
Why doxx someone unless you are implying a threat of harassment against them?

So you've verified the person in the screenshot saying they've arranged for bombs to be planted has been banned?

Why do you say the forum itself is "dedicated" to those things?
How "hosting" someone posted makes them responsible considering section 230 and the 1st A?

Used for meatspace attacks on people they didn't like. It had transitioned to the "sticks and stones" stage.
What is your evidence for that?

Repeating lies doesn't make lies true.
