white-only dating app
Oh. Those exist?
I don't mind.
I'd never use.
But if that's what some people are into, they should be free to have that.
Helps preserve diversity, by having pockets of various "pure breeds", contrast to all those favouring genetic diversity [in their romantic relations] and "hybrid vigour" [in their offspring]. Good to have both.
Though one has to wonder how over populated with how distasteful of character such most attracts though. Like a friend says, if the colour of your skin is the main thing you've got going on, you've not got much going on. Content of character, innit. Better criteria.
But who are we to decide for others who they're to be attracted to. There are many other sites and services matching people of one criteria with another. Idealistically (perhaps naively), this (like for like) should be no different. If we deny them this, the worst will still seek it out, and curate it, bolstered by terrorised/terrorising poor-me victim narratives spurring on survival reflexes. As seems to have happened.
Not sure such actions are a remedy. Likely to have them double down to worse. :/
That would be great but they are all still alive and reachable
Are they? For me the website has a Cloudflare captcha leading into a 404: https://whitedate.net/
After the talk it had a rick-roll embed for some time. :D
I tried the 1st two that the script deleted (whitechild.net and whitedeal.net) at 11:35am Pacific Time on Jan 3rd and they both came up fine...sadly
Could be the site owner is in the process of restoring access, the talk (and thus the deletion) happened on 29th of December.
True. I just saw the script say it was deleting backups so I got happy for a moment
Well that's probably true. I mean lots of stuff was obviously hacked and deleted, and if you trust the script output in the stream mostly from whitedate. child and deal are later off-shoots it seems, but date had like 6k users, some paying, the main project basically. And it's still offline. And whitedeal shows a 2019 copyright notice. :D
There was an interactive map of the user profiles hosted by the hacker at https://okstupid.lol/ but it seems to be down right now. And the journalists who participated in the talk (and pointedly left before the script was run) announced there will be more articles released soon.
But it seems there is no real content on those websites? So maybe they just started to recreate those sites.
Geeile aktion
Minute 43 für all diejenigen die nur kurz zeit für den löschen-part haben
me and a few friends talked to a local dude who put his discord in his bio on that website. turns out he was generally a normal and pleasant dude and since that he did a complete 180. Last time he used WhiteDate was 2018. People, especially young people, can change a lot in almost a Decade.
some of them may not be the monstrous assholes we imagine them to be. (except those guys with nazi tats and showing off swastikas)
So they made it so this little bit of containment is now gone and the racists can now disseminate into the good dating apps?? I don't know how this was better for the majority..
Containment doesn't work, splitting them up weakens them and makes it harder to congregate and build mass.
It is, because it was not only used as a dating site but also to network.
There were only about 10% women on that site, so not that much dating going on there.
Well the rationale is that they were announcing live to the world (and therefore also the website owner) that "all your base are belong to us". So instead of giving the website owner time to fix their flawed IT security they just deleted all the infected systems at the end of the talk (including some backups and admin accounts).
Where are these good dating apps you speak of?
