Sysad.org seems to be the new NaturalNews disinformation / troll home
If you've seen a recent follow from 999999999@sysad.org
, this is a "glue" account that has been trying to reconnect numerous propaganda, disinformation, spam, and troll accounts that were formerly on share.naturalnews.com
, which seems to have gone offline as of late August.
From 9's profile page:
We switched D* pods cos the Natural News host server crashed and we jumped over to SysAd on September 5th, 2021. Thanks for having us. Looking forward to interacting here. Cheers!!
I don't have a pod admin contact for Sysad.org, and there's none listed on the site's inforamational page: https://sysad.org/
Pod stats list just under 1,000 montly active users (MAU), and open registrations: https://sysad.org/statistics
Recommendations:
- Block
999999999@sysad.org
This will prevent it from commenting on your own posts. - Monitor the profile's posts. It's likely new migratees will comment, like, or reshare these.
- Get ready to start blocking more sysad.org profiles and deleting comments to your posts.
I'm not convinced Sysad is fully black hat, but it's quite clearly poorly administered. Site-level blocks may be justified if that trend continues.
And if the sysad.org podmin is reading this: Put up some contact information so you can be informed directly of abuse. For your own sake and that of legitimate and good-faith users of your system. Thanks, both from me an on their behalf.
