Did you archive it?
Hey, I almost forgot. Week's almost over, where's the Boston Globe Op Ed, John? Don't say you made it up like that election post mortem you were totally going to publish in the New York Times.
I'm willing to bet Wu will blame gamergate for the New Zealand shooter.
Place your bets!I'm willing to bet Wu will blame gamergate for the New Zealand shooter.
Place your bets!
I bet John tries to make this about himself. How long before we hear "As a victim of gamergate...." ?

CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE BRIANNA WU RELEASES STATEMENT ON THE CHRISTCHURCH MASSACRE
DEDHAM, Massachusetts - Candidate for U.S. Congress Brianna Wu released a statement today about the massacre in Christchurch, New Zealand. “I had multiple meetings with the FBI about violence being planned on 8chan, the site where the Christchurch killer was radicalized,” said Wu. The statement reads as follows:
Last night, my heart was broken hearing about the mass killing in Christchurch, New Zealand. As of this morning, 49 are reported dead. The rise of organized hate groups isn’t just an American phenomenon, it’s a worldwide challenge for law enforcement and civil discourse.
Reading the coverage this morning, I was dismayed to see that the man apparently behind this carefully planned mass murder was a user of 8chan, and seems to have been radicalized there. According to ABC and Newsweek, this planned mass killing was live-streamed there. Even as you read this, 8chan users are celebrating this mass murder and planning more.
This is personal to me, as 8chan was the group primarily behind Gamergate - the organized hate campaign against women in tech through 2014 and 2015.
I was one of the primary targets of Gamergate. To revisit this sad history, in the early days - the movement was primarily organized on 4chan and Reddit. Eventually, the violent threats against women became so extreme, 4chan banned discussion of it. 4chan has two rules, you cannot past child pornography and you cannot talk about Gamergate.
Gamergate moved to 8chan, a site willing to host any content - no matter how illegal or dangerous. As the FBI started to investigate Gamergate, myself and my team had countless meetings with them asking them to act.
Aside from the violent threats against myself and other women in tech, 8chan hosted content so blatantly illegal that I documented and sent to the FBI. This included threats against federal judges, posting their home addresses, private financial information, and names of their staff. 8chan also hosted large databases of dark web stolen credit card information. They hosted child pornography. They hosted cyberweapons to bring down websites. They also encouraged the murder of myself and other prominent women in the tech industry.
I had multiple meetings with the FBI about violence being planned on 8chan, the site where the Christchurch killer seems to have been radicalized. I gave them evidence of these illegal activities and I asked them to act. As reported by the Washington Post, who reviewed my emails sent to the FBI, they chose to ignore it.
When I decided to run for public office, I signed up for public scrutiny. I expected to get called every name in the book and I haven’t been disappointed. I will be the first person to tell you, those insults are protected speech - and I will fiercely defend the right of my toughest critics to lob them at me. But, threatening to murder people is a crime. Hosting child pornography is a crime. Hosting stolen financial information is a crime. Taking down websites with cyberweapons and botnets is a crime. And the FBI needs to understand, these are serious issues in the 21st century that cannot be ignored.
I am calling on the FBI to finally investigate 8chan, as it poses a clear and present danger to the American public.
