An entry from last January 16 (Don’t Try This At Home) originally linked to a video showing some stunt driving. Sometime in the intervening months that site got redirected to a porn site. This actually happens fairly frequently – if a site that’s at all popular lets their name registration lapse, even by accident, a porn site owner can immediately snatch it up and redirect its traffic to their site.<\/p>\n
I apologize to anyone who followed the link and ended up seeing the porn site (especially Ben’s Newman Club friends – yikes!). I never intend for anything on this site to be worse than PG-13; if anyone sees anything like this again, please email brian at casiello dot net, and I’ll fix it right away. I also get notifications of comments, so if you just add a comment to a questionable entry, I can take care of it from there as well.<\/p>\n
Just so you know, another problem common to weblogs is spam in comments. Spammers send lots of bogus comments to weblogs, all saying “Great site” or something like that, and fill it with pointers to their own sites; more often than not, these are porn sites as well. I have an automatic system in place to handle comment spam. It catches most of them automatically, and passes the rest on to me. But as yet, there’s no automatic way to handle links moving around. Sorry again!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
