- railing1650 7y agoI think it's a Trojan Horse that is run by establishment -- not Russians (google, facebook etc). I've caught the wayback machine removing pages several times recently, so I suspect they are providing this fake alternative. It was banned on wikipedia for a long time, and many suspected that there could be hacking issues. Sort of like a Crypto A.G. situation
