About this QRV discussion at https://voat .co/v/QRV/3235269

I do NOT trust https://poal.co

Because:

  • POAL.CO is potentially NOT secure. As POAL.CO code is not available publicly. So it can not be review by the public. In other words, there is a risk of abuse.
  • POAL.CO is own by a for-profit organization Phuks LLC. It is not owned by a not-for-profit community. Usually a for-profit organization first priority is to hoard money. Not serve you and protect your privacy.
  • This means POAL.CO has weaker privacy and weaker free speech than VOAT. Compare to VOAT.CO which IS open source(github.com).

Who Is Phuks LLC?

  • Phuks, LLC filed as a Florida Limited Liability in the State of Florida on Monday, January 9, 2017 as recorded in documents filed with Florida Department of State.
  • 3 owners according to public records(corporationwiki.com):

OOOOOOkay couple inconsistencies here.

first Poal.co is not Owned by Phuks LLC its owned by me personally, I have stated publicly that 50% belongs to @AOUbut have not officially filed any documents to make this legal.

Second our code will be public very shortly, we already have phab.poal.co and we will be uploading the code shortly.

Thanks for bringing it up though.

If you want to know who I am, I'd be more than happy to have a conversation with you on our Mumble server, our riot server or through PMs here.

Edit: I can go so far as to say I have even met one of my users in person. I plan to meet many more of them in the coming months. I've had many many conversations with many of them on our mumble server. If you want to know if you can trust me come on and talk to me.

Edit 2: I'm not sure how you arrived at the conclusion poal isn't open source yet somehow decided its owned by phuks which is open source, this is confusing to me.

Edit 3: @WaWhite13@AOU@Slumsta@Chips@x0x7@starjelloyou all can confirm I am who I say I am.

He's misreading the Throat code copyright information as ownership info for the entire site.

[–] 8 pts 6y

that would appear to be the case, Ivan you can confirm I'm who I say I am right?

I can confirm you inflict weightlifting accidents on Hillary Clinton's enemies, because no amount of proving you're ok will make the highly negative, Voat-accustomed people come around.

PMYB2 and @AOUwork hard to provide a platform for free speech. The code base, Throat, is open source (that's where the admins got it). Our code is a deviation from that with little to no version control, as I understand it, but the admins are working to correct that and make it open source again.

You are welcome here, Qtards, but we don't need you to stay if you don't want to.

Dude @pmyb2is legit. I've been on poal since it's inception and there is nothing fuckey about this site. As with everything, if you don't like it you are free to fuck off somewhere else.

[–] 8 pts 6y

Or come on mumble and find out the truth that we are all a bunch of people that just want free speech.

And you shouldn't trust it. Not because of the factually wrong reason you listed, but since you should never trust an online service. Don't give it your private information, you have no idea how secure they are.

[–] 0 pt 6y

you should never trust an online service

Otherwise, you might be eaten by a grue, right xyzzy?

[–] 0 pt 6y

Most likely. I never tried and those who did never reported back.

This is so wrong or has to be a troll. Also mail me your shekels

[–] [deleted] 4 pts 6y

OK.

Kinda makes ya wonder how anything these guys research is even close to valid, doesn't it - LOL.

We don't even know for sure that OP is one of them. This migration event is good camouflage for certain elements we've dealt with before.

[–] 4 pts 6y

Maybe. We'll have to wait and see what becomes of this.

[–] 3 pts 6y

This is true. Just shitty if he is ... come for the free sub, then piss all over your host.

Oh fuck man! Turns out I am a Manager of poal.co and I never knew it!

Poal is based on Throat. Throat is the basis for Phuks too. Phuks doesn't own Poal, they just have the same basis.
