A trusted user has informed us that Avast Anti-Virus is warning that .Win is infected with a phishing URL.
It does not seem to me to be the case, but still it is good to be watchful.
Be careful. The mods here nor I have control over the code that is used for these sites. Additionally, and unrelated to this, I would recommend that whatever e-mail address you use for this reveal no personal information, that it not be used for anything that is linked to your personal identity, and that you use no password here that you use for another site that is connected to your real life identity.
For now, we're relying on the good folks of T_D. I think that certainly is less of a worry than something like hacking.
Since we're not advocating for any illegal activity, we don't have to worry much about that.
Does .win have a canary?
I do not think there is a warrant canary statement for .win at present; maybe they can't do one because the site's already gagged. Would be a good question to ask on T_D, just getting a 'can't comment' would be enough of an answer.
There was talk that if you can login with incorrect credentials, then the authentication is compromised/disabled, which means .win has been re-directed by a hostile actor-- the reasoning being that they have control over their authentication, and if that is not active, a bad actor would just let everyone in.
Not sure if the reasoning is still solid, but that's what the theory was the last time this kind of scare happened. Assuming things will get worse is probably warranted. You have to assume that alt-tech will be compromised at some point, so the 'private' conversations you're having will be read by 'anti-fascist' lefty hackers (or even government agents) at some point.
