DON'T CLICK ON THEM! They use multiple redirects which potentially leads them to load websites in the background that could infect your system.

F for @DarkThoughts. We salute your sacrifice for the greater good. May your files be encrypted and your antivirus strong.
Ublock already nuked the pop up, I had to use an online scanner to check what was even happening because it just closed the tab immediately. Also I'm on Linux, so I feel I am probably not the target audience.
If you're on linux, even the fake MILFs in your area aren't interested.
Ublock also eats them before they can even feign interest.
Hot MILFs in your area are now all dating Ublock.
I got cUckblocked. :(
My feed just got completely flooded by them, all from random. All of them have a very sketchy looking URL, might not even be porn but porn-bait with something more malicious on the other end
Yep - 100% a bot phishing attack - seen it a bunch on other sites I've run in the past. Probably goes without saying, but don't click the links. I've been reporting them as I block so the admins have a paper trail for when they're ready to purge the accounts.
Yeah, I just blocked random
@Arotrios The magazines have been cleaned up and I've deleted the associated accounts. If this happens again, I'll apply a temporary fix. And if the campaigns cease, I'll work on a more comprehensive solution. Thanks for reaching out.
@ernest - thanks! Glad I could help - you've built a great space here, and I know what a pain it is to deal with spambots.
Click on the server name & block it for all time.
I would, but it's not just one server they're submitting - they're pushing multiple domains.
That being said, I think I've reported and blocked all of them, and my feed is clear now - there were about 20 - 30 accounts in total. This indicates that someone manually set them up by going through Kbin's login process - if they had built a bot that could hack the login, we'd probably see numbers in the hundreds.
Block the each user, there's about 6 or 7, all on kbin.social, job done..
I found a bit more than that, but yeah, it was a manageable number on my end to clean the feed.
Not even good porn. Booo
PSA for Mac OS users: get little snitch mini. Best protection against harmful URL redirects and such, especially coupled with uBlock Origin.
Ended up having to ban a bunch of accounts from my instance. They just kept coming for a bit.
Update 3:39 PST - another wave of 10 or so just came in - reported and blocked.
Yeah just unsubbed from /m/random a few moments ago, fuckin' unreal lol.
Update 11 hours from original post - 12:45am PST - still catching them. Got another 10. It looks like they're firing off roughly every three hours.
And still coming in at a rate of about 10 every two hours... 6:30am PST, 17 hours from original post
Might need to throttle posts from anyone to a single domain that isn’t already allow listed.
Where can I find this porn, so I can totally block and ignore it and not at all fap
@ernest nixed them already. Note that according to reports, the porn wasn't good and the sites full of malware and redirects.
