User:John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt just revdeleted some stuff on both the article and talk pages, and fully protected the article. This is a sensible thing to have done, and thank you JJJS - David Gerard (talk) 22:30, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

Cue cries of censorship in 3... 2... 1... 141.134.75.236 (talk) 22:35, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
A probably stupid thought: Should we put up an Template:Editnotice for articles that've been legally iffy before, to remind users that what they say needs solid proof? FuzzyCatTomato (talk/stalk) 00:32, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
But... but... those poor poor edit summaries! Censorshipz!!!one1! PacWalker 03:24, 4 April 2015 (UTC)

Legal threats against Adblock users[edit]

Now he's sending Adblock users to shady malvertisers and posting on the Adblock Plus forums about taking the developers of ad-blocking software to court: https://adblockplus.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=28581 Julyo (talk) 15:47, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

Not the first to float such ideas, but that isn't the best-reasoned version I've ever seen... PacWalker 15:55, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

I've had a Mike Adams lackey tell me that using AdBlock is breaking the law because if I don't give Mike Adams money when I go to his website, I'm literally stealing his content.

Dead websites - maybe remove?[edit]

So I tried looking at the websites listed at the start of the article:

  • SouthernCaliforniaWeatherAuthority.com - seems to want to install a virus.
  • WeatherAlertCentral.com - No longer exists. --Bob"Life is short and (insert adjective)" 15:44, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
If there any actual live links to those sites (rather than archived copies) they should be removed. But just listing the names of the sites he's operated should be fine. Leuders (talk) 15:56, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
