Undernet operators do, however, cooperate with police and the FBI to snare child pornographers, and Angel111 points out that the one time she gave RevWhite the means to take action against a child-porn Web site by mailing him the name and address of the site's webmaster, he did nothing. And with a protocol in place called Direct Client-to-Client that allows users to link their machines directly for file exchanges, bypassing the Undernet's servers, holding Undernet operators responsible for pornographic GIFs exchanged by users would be, says Field, "like saying MCI's backbone should be shut down because of porn on somebody's Web page, or suing the Post Office because of people mailing dirty magazines." With 20,000 users chatting at one time, and 240,000 on the network in a single day, monitoring content would be next to impossible, says Undernet operator Angel111. Field's name also started appearing on Usenet posts that he hadn't written, implying that Field himself - an honors student in 9th grade - was a supporter of child pornography.Īdministrators admit that pornographic files are exchanged during chat sessions on all three major IRC networks, but it is Undernet policy not to police its thousands of channels for content, and discussion of pornography itself is not illegal. One day after the server was removed from the Undernet, Field says, he was subjected to a massive, disabling ICMP data-flood, originating in Arkansas. The server had been online for a month or so, and "Don was going to become an operator," Field recalls, "but I had to de-link the server from the network after somebody started changing the settings." (The availability and willingness of Undernet operators to assist users is one of the things that distinguishes the Undernet from the other major IRC networks, such as EFNet). Jeff Field, aka "Terabyte," a 14-year-old Web designer who hosts Windows-related help channels on the Undernet, says that he helped Don Ellis' brother Richard run an Undernet server in Arkansas after receiving a request for assistance on a mailing list. It is estimated that 3 percent of the population is homosexual, meaning that a male homosexual is 23x more likely to moleste a child than a straight male."
Blacks rape whites 1000x more than whites rape blacks. Ironically, Geocities, the Internet provider that hosts RevWhite's homepage, is lauded on HateWatch as an ISP with a "no hate pages policy," though the site boasts links with slogans like "Thank God for AIDS," and such declarations as, "Negroids commit more crime than any group in history. to somehow prove that I am, as he claims. "After that, he'd come on IRC with nicks like 'KillJudi,'" Judi says. "This guy is the worst I've ever seen," says Web designer John Leth-Nissen, whose nickname on the Undernet (or "nick" in IRC parlance) is "Deadelvis." Undernet administrators claim that RevWhite and his supporters have forged email and Usenet posts, unleashed denial-of-service attacks, posted unlisted telephone numbers, and made direct threats to those who voice opposition or assist IRC channels targeted by RevWhite's campaign.Īt least one Undernet operator, whose nick was "Judi," resigned her volunteer post following threats made to her life and that of her 9-year-old daughter after she "reopped" a gay channel disrupted by RevWhite. RevWhite has been joined in his crusade by at least one vocal supporter, Don Ellis, whose Web site, The American Guardian, promotes many of the same values as RevWhite's own Maryland Christian Politics site. the most feared man on IRC," the self-proclaimed "Christian Realist" charges that the Undernet "supports child porn," and vows to lead an "IRC Watch" campaign, using the nickname "RevWhite," until the network is purged of chat channels like #gayboysex.
An evangelist who claims that his God-given calling is to "make America straighter and whiter" is causing anguish on the Undernet, a global affiliation of Internet Relay Chat channels that bills itself as "the friendly network." Calling himself "Reverend White.
