Arsenal 0-2 City: Two-minute Carabao Cup final highlights

This weekend this site has served over 8 million Web requests - probably an all-time high (after nearly 20 years). For well over 2 years we were besieged by very despicable people, two of whom got arrested and both of whom have a history of abuse against women (one is based in Canada, the other in Texas). In 2024 - if not 2021 (we'll publish a detailed timeline one day) - one of them joined forces with a third American. All of them threw lawsuits at us. One of them contained fake addresses and likely constituted a crime in Canada (lying to a Court). In hindsight, it's good that we meticulously documented what they did to ISPs, to webhosts, to family members etc. Because now we get to spend several years telling the world what they did to us.

The following series is about 10% done:

There will be many more series after this one and in conjunction with this series. We present it in a form that helps illuminate how the system can generally fail (it's all about money) or be gamed, cheated etc. The aim is to address the issue in a way that can prevent future abuses.

Our articles about these issues don't even constitute 10% of our output; we have other topics to keep on top of, e.g. EPO abuses.
