What if this happens:
I work with a difficult dev/designer for a couple of months trying to bootstap a product. In the end it's not working, we agree to go our own ways, but I keep the name of the product. For what ever reason they get shitty with me, and a month or two down the line when I'm working with someone else they post about me on 'iwasntpaid' - not just once, loads of times - they know a lot about me so they can make it look like a string of unhappy dev/designers are annoyed and I can never be sure who it was posting this.
Would the site owner let me/help me remove these? Will they be asking for proof? If not I can see them getting in some interesting legal battles pretty quickly.
I think something like: http://youthoughtwewouldntnotice.com/blog3/ http://youthoughtwewouldntnotice.com/blog3/ is great - but it is totally open and honest - you state who you are and why you feel you've been ripped off.
This anonymous sniping isn't going to help anyone. If someone rips you off write a blog post about it, tell people you work with, or better yet talk to the offending party in person.
This feels like bitching-meets-4chan. At least http://www.grouphug.us http://www.grouphug.us tries to keep both sides anonymous.

- ljf 15y agoReally - no adverts when I visit it? Edit: Some sort of IE7 hack/virus/attack? (sorry can't reply to your message for some reason) http://i.imgur.com/r8u2I.png http://i.imgur.com/r8u2I.png - screenshot is with adblock turned on, but I also tried it with it turned off and didn't get it.
- gk1 15y agoI'm on IE 7 (don't ask), so perhaps the ad is the site's way of telling me "F U"? Edit: Screenshot - http://i.imgur.com/5lnJ7.jpg http://i.imgur.com/5lnJ7.jpg
- iamandrus 15y agoYour computer probably has malware. Run ComboFix and that should fix the issue. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix
- gk1 15y agoI'm on a highly secured military network. While it's not impossible that there's malware on my computer, I think it's more likely that something's up with the website. Edit: There's no choice of browsers on this network. It's IE 7 or nothing.
- WettowelReactor 15y agoAny network connected to the general internet (even NIPRnet) is not a highly secured network. Maybe highly regulated but sure as hell not secure.
- darkmethod 15y agoMay I suggest that you refrain from surfing the Internet using IE7 while on a secured military network.
- gk1 15y agoUnfortunately there is no other option. You use the software you're given, and that's it.
- corin_ 15y agoIf you're browsing random sites that could well be infected, even if you weren't using IE7 the fact that you're on a "secure military network" doesn't stop you from being just as vulnerable as anyone else browsing random sites. Sounds to be like the security of your network has at least one hole in it.
- davedd 15y agoYep, seems to be compromised there: http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/youthoughtwewouldntnotice.com/blog3/ http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/youthoughtwewouldntnotic...
- cbr 15y agoWith FF10 on OSX 10.6 I see the ad too: http://i.imgur.com/FdGJ6.png http://i.imgur.com/FdGJ6.png
