    Snopes.com is about to be DD

    So guy starts snopes.com, then divorces wife, she gets half the company and then sells her half to the hosting provider.

    Guy attempts to terminate contract with hosting provider, hosting provider now has somehow hijacked the domain and refused access to any of the backend/source/etc.

    Guy is now setting up a fucking gofundme to raise 500k (what a curiously arbitrary number) which he somehow has decided is what it will cost to 'hire lawyers to get the site back'.

    Literally watching in stunned disbelief as people donate, its well past 50k last I looked... haha sorry, just looked again and its currently at $376,167 of $500k.

    Pretty sure 9 of every 10 cents donated was from people watching Trumptards call Snopes.com "an alt-left site".

    there was this brief flash in time where somehow dee-lite and de la soul had created this musical/cultural bridge and like 5 minutes later Liquid Swords landed and all that hippy shit went to pieces.

    I remember getting thrown off the 7 Haight because my friend wouldn't stop playing this song on his boom box. We bought the tape at music for the people in Hayes valley.

    FUCK SNOPES

    What an absolutely shitty "truth searching" site.

    Not much different than the rest imo

    And imo the fact that the site has ultimately come to what it has, should tell you everything you need to know about how unprofessional, biased and compromised their operations really were/are.

    I knew deep down they were shit years ago.

    If they really cared so much about spreading absolute truth, they would have been more transparent; instead it took other organizations to dig in and see what they were really made of.

    Hey, get an honest to goodness SOLID group of UNBIASED fact finders with ALL the bells and whistles and whatnot, and you've got yourself a multi-milliondollar company (or BILLION DOLLAR); especially this day and age where everyone is questioning even the most solid of sources.

    We dont have an operation like this yet. We dont have one that is true and people flock to for a real unbiased answer.

    I know this may sound like a pipe dream, but good grief, look what has been built on the internet at the present time.

    A bonafide "Snopes" type site that has been doing serious weightlifting while on steroids is what the internet is missing right now.

    Someone tell me im wrong here?

    And full disclosure: ive had a few tonight, but i reread everything and i think its still my feelings as best as i can express right now

    Snopes is a great site to look up the truth regarding possible internet hoaxes.

    It's horrible and laughably biased for anything political.

    I always laugh when people on the left write, "But snopes verified this wasn't true!" as a way to bolster their political argument.
