      4chan is a cia honeypot which is part of why it became super right wing and why /pol/ started after moot met with Epstein. At a minimum they keep logs for weeks and in certain cases indefinitely

      It doesn’t allow VPNs and collects user data. To other users you’re anonymous. Otherwise the site is tracking you like any other.

        My only guess is that it’s so that users felt anonymous but idk if that would be profitable since idk much about the fines and all.

        oh that’s an odd thing to do. Idk how I expected it to make money tbh. Not like I use it anyways I’ve only entered that thing once got flashed and left.

        That does kinda make this new way more surprising but also confusing.
