A hot $30 Million injection of win for the Fail Blog parent company, eh?
Profitable since inception, eh? Â So what are they going to do now? Â Make it funnier?
4chan – do they give a rat’s ass?
Some guy on the above thread said the network suffers DDOS attacks, but I hadn’t heard of that. I think Anon is just bored with troglodyte thieves. Maybe not. I love the goofy internet memes too… but it is stuff they constantly rip off, and most content is user generated (like Yelp… making money off all of them *ahem* us, how dare they)
But seriously…. it’s not going to get funnier with money. It’s just going to get a nervous VC guy to keep saying “better monetization” and then really piss off 4Chan for real. Or not. Who knows.
The internet is a nebulous and bizarre place.
Someone else will bring this up, so I will be damned if I don’t bring it up first.
Someone is going to get hurt out there. Â This is right about the moment I take a hot bath and play with a rubber ducky.
