You have to close all the spaces in the link, spam filter understandably caught it the first time I tried to post it. Xj9k is an imageboard spam tracker, you'll find other weirdos on the site too

Why are you giving them all this attention? Just report and ignore. Don't let a spammer control /recent/.

>>25123Look people just decided to keep track of this for no reason
So stop complaining and deal with it
No.25132
>>25123It's because this particular kind of spam in excess is dangerous to everyone. A lot of web browsers preload links on a webpage even if you don't click them, which means that just browsing a site hit by this kind of spam probably sends false positives to people's ISPs.
If it was just once a month or a week or something and most users were very unlikely to encounter it more than once in a blue moon it'd be one thing. But it's happening daily most of the time sometimes multiple times a day.

This is actually happening to all imageboards right now, and is an existential crisis for the future of imageboards as a mode of community. Some imageboard admins have already given up. Whoever or whatever is doing it is unbothered by reCAPTCHA, so there is no point leaving it on. There are writeups / discussion threads about the CP spam crisis on Lainchan/hum/, Lainchan/q/, and Trashchan/meta/ right now where users and moderators are sharing information and theories.
I have a plan to mod a URL unshortener into the software to unmask the destinations since it's known that all of these shortened URLs lead to the same hosting site, and the actual host is harder to rotate than the infinite supply of URL shorteners. This way it should be much easier to block the spam. But it will take a while to implement, mostly because my energy and free time is limited by my full time job. If I can finish this project I will be able to share it with other admins and deal a decisive blow to the spammers, at least until they come up with a new strategy.

It's gonna be a big wack-a-mole game, but removing the layer of obfuscation from the url shortner will help a ton. It's a bit harder to change to another file sharing service than changing to another url shortner service :)

But I have to state that they won't be gone. And I do not believe you will have much luck finding many small communities you do not know of already that aren't completely invite only that do not inherit the problem. But please take care on your journey regardless.

I'm curious, when you guys say you're leaving because you saw a chinese botpost redirecting to some pastebin link that doesn't even contain actual cp, are you leaving because you feel disgust/anguish, or because you think your own personal FBI agent is gonna fuck with you because you saw a cp thumbnail by accident?

>>25266Nta but law enforcement have been posting on /pol/ for years and even accidentally entrapped fellow agents. There was also that AI researcher that was spamming the place with pol content. If you look at /pol/ and the online ultra right wingers, most of their ideas come from the mainstream establishment. Save Western civilization? Neocon Sam Huntington bullshit. Deeper investigation will reveal the truth one day. Like the Mitrokhin Archive exposed the KGB. We won't know unless the documents leak.

A few possibilities
1. Criminal organization selling CP
This to me is unlikely at this point in time, as they have been linking to clearnet websites to sell the CP. And the payment is made in traceable currencies. There's a post in a lainchan thread detailing the different payment methods but they use Bitcoin, and their wallets have been publicly revealed. It seems unlikely that someone could be running a criminal operation on the clearnet with traceable currency and nobody gets caught after months.
2. Some asshole is trying to get altchans to get taken down by the feds.
3. Some asshole is trying to get altchans to turn evil by forcing them to adopt automated moderation tools which will violate users' nanonymity.
4. USG is creating a casus belli to take over altchans or make them turn evil, which is conducive to a takeover.
