I don't think it's fair to say that. Individual businesses aren't evaluating KF themselves and independently coming to the same conclusion. Otherwise, it would be highly coincidental that they all randomly reached this conclusion within a few days of each other, when there hasn't been any significant recent shift in content on KF.
- shadowgovt 4y ago> it would be highly coincidental that they all randomly reached this conclusion within a few days of each other Oh, no doubt that a massive online campaign surfaced the question of whether KF needed to be evaluated. The fact that they've all come to the same conclusion is because of KF's content, not because individual service providers are not independent. The common thread is the site under evaluation, and the site is that bad.
- alanweber22 4y agoOk fair point that their evaluations and conclusions could all still be independent, but simply triggered by the twitter campaign. But from all that's been written on the topic, there's been very few concrete examples put forward of dangerous content on KF. It seems to me more likely that businesses have simply seen that the twitter campaign reached a critical mass and made the simple decision to cut them off to reduce reputation risk without doing much of an investigation themselves.
