UWWWB has been kicked off two offshore hosts and one US host so far. We were averaging less than one week of uptime. Our Panama presence was attacked by an illegal and highly disruptive DDoS attack, of obvious US origins. Considering the situation, there is a VERY short list of suspects in this attack, but of course Panama isn’t going to do anything about it. They just boot the cheap account.

As we’ve had national news attention to the site, and my ongoing battle with the federal government, there is simply no way the site is not going to get negative attention. Worse yet, most the regular members are apparently scared to come back. And I understand that.

So here’s what I am going to do. I am going to save up some money and get us a nice server on an offshore network. As I ran commercial data centers for 15 years I have more than a few friends in the “bulletproof” hosting business. They aren’t friendly enough to fend of nasty letters from the feds and DDoS attacks for free, but I can get it done with a little cash. Meanwhile, it’s very unfortunate, but I will have to leave the site down until I can afford to get it on a bulletproof server. I do not want to cause any problems for our current host.

Also, someone apparently took my promise to disclose information as a veiled threat, and complained, so I am honor bound to follow through. All the information, including photos, financial, credit, and personal data will be released through various other means as I feel the public has a right to know who these people are that so carelessly destroy lives and businesses. But nothing will be posted here, and I have even removed the Informants name from the FBI Raid story.

Meanwhile, if you are one of the old members, please keep in touch by email. If nothing else send me a single email that says you want to know when the site is back up and where (if not uwwwb.com). Provided I recognize the username, I’ll send you a notice when we go live again.

Until then, if there is anything any of you can do to help speed the process up, please PayPal cygonx@gmail.com. I don’t care if it’s just $5.00, every little bit helps under the circumstances.

I have no intentions of discontinuing the disclosure of information regardign the case, but I can’t risk getting UWWWB slammed for it each time, so it will also be in another format. Google me often :)
