Jim Watkins

Give me your shekels goyim

Jim Watkins^✡ is owner of 8chan, 2channel, and NT technology. He is mostly known for datamining his users and [[Lies|fucking super hot AZN bitches.]

Takeover of 2ch and 8ch

Jim was accused of stealing 2ch from Hiroyuki Nishimura. Because it is a totally normal industry practice for a hosting provider to seize your domain name, web site and other intellectual property when you fail to pay a bill. Then he was suspected to have DDoSed 8chan and got it kicked off hosting providers.

Then Jim LARPed being a white knight by offering old as fuck dual core i5 shit boxes for hosting in exchange for a majority equity stake in 8chan. (http://www.8ch.net/who.html - http://archive.is/Bq2M4) Then the DDoSes mysteriously stopped even though 2ch's & 8chan's real IPs can be found via ARIN records because Jim is a retard who can't into INFOSEC. But this was only a coincidence amirite?

8chan Ads

Now considering how hard Jim is shilling his new softserve ad system, and refuses to accept code from Next because he might be forced to open source it due to the AGPL, what does he have to hide in his code if he isn’t following his own privacy policy?

Because Jim is a greedy Jew, he wants to kill off Tor access so he can serve targeted ads. But he LARPs that it is due to "problem" users. Of course Tor has no legitimate uses such as on /pol/ for people in countries where hate speech is banned. https://archive.is/c45aW

Credit fraud

Jim stored 40,000 unencrypted records containing credit card information, and months of logs associating posts to that credit card information himself, or had knowledge of it:

>N.T. Technology was the victim of a cyber attack https://web.archive.org/web/20131218100840/http://www55.atwiki.jp/omorasimaru/pages/16.html

The credit card leak was from 2ch.tora3.net, the site run by NT Technology (Jim) to sell Rounin Passes. Hiroyuki was the admin of 2ch.net at the time, but not of 2ch.tora3.net which Jim ran: http://web.archive.org/web/20130120164524/http://2ch.tora3.net/about.html
