How To Fake A Website Shutdown

What we do know is that Gematrinator.com wasn’t fully functional for the better part of three days.  After that requires a lot of speculation since of course you can’t expect a straight answer from “them”.  Taken at face value, Noah Pozner’s father got a big up his ass about a copyrighted photo and complained.  The copyright violation issues have been covered here before, and if this is the case it’s a simple matter of if there is a copyright in place, the holder is allowed to claim it’s not fair use.  However, the story about Sandy Hook parents actively going after the conspiracy theorist use of the image was debunked a long time ago.  The photo is real, but the story is completely untrue.

So take off some points off  for lack of originality and not finding a new issue to manufacture false allegations out of.

At first I wondered where we were headed with this.  Like maybe after a years long taste of an easier way to produce whatever number you wanted there was a shift towards monetization.  But, this was immediately negated by offer of free downloads to your pc, so that was out.

The error message you got was a fairly typical 404 not found message.

I said to myself, “Hmmm...404 error troubleshooting info, what’s that all about?”  So although I can’t absolutely prove that the site was not shut down in the manner presented, I can prove that someone with a better than average understanding of computers could have worked out how to fake it.  Play around with customized redirects.

There’s even video on YouTube to go through a process to create your own customized 404 error page complete with pictures and whatever message you want.  For Blogger, one such video is here:

On Blogger, go to settings and copy and paste some HTML code.  And the settings also allow you to redirect.  So notice the 404 error is for the page e50.ehosts.com, which if you search for without a link gives(or at least gave) this:

 

Pretty sure the evil empire could find a better way to pull down a website than by redirecting to a non-existent webpage.  Something more permanent.

I personally had an issue several weeks ago with an infinite redirection where my blog wouldn’t load.  So I researched and figured out how to get back going.  I was offline for a period of half an hour from the time I found the problem to the correction.

Now use some critical thinking skills here.  Also a key part of the story was a text conversation with an avatar of just the letter V about how the fix would need to wait until the legal team got back from the weekend.  I have a cynical view of support services online; trying to find someone who knows what they are doing instead of just a warm body answering a phone is like pulling teeth at times.  Yet, we are lead to believe that V didn’t have enough knowledge to find the bad redirection, where I without any formal training in IT could.  And the 404 error page even includes mention of Wordpress troubleshooting regarding the error message:

Surely a pain in the ass to have to deal with if you encounter it, but not the end of the world.

The creativity points scored for this is because I can’t prove that e50.hosts.com was the target.  The typical user who believes in gematria is just going to take it for granted at the first sign of “It’s not working”.  So much like always getting a football game right because you either predicted it right or getting it wrong and declaring victory because OBVIOUSLY, they are out to get me so they flipped the script, it’s a no lose situation.

The only way to prove that it happened in the manner presented would be an official notification instead of a vague screenshot.  Otherwise when you combine the debunked copyright story with the bad e50 site, Occam’s Razor says that a redirection fix is more likely.  Especially since the evil empire only inconvenienced people for a few days instead of activating Bob the Hitman.

The first link directs you to an actual page on this blog.  The second directs you to a custom 404 page I made.  You can do a lot of funky stuff with HTML editing.
