Title says it all. I'm low-key kind of cooked bro lol. A good chunk of the work for the bots I post on this site comes from Danbooru so this really throws a wrench into things. Call me a conspiracy theorist, but it's funny how this happens around the same time AO3 goes down... or when NIKKE's PC launcher got tampered with... In all seriousness though, I won't lie; this is kind of a big deal in more ways than I originally thought. That said, there are fortunately other sites that I can get images from so I can adjust.

"Why are you bothering to make this post then?" You might be asking.

Well, for a couple of reasons. First of all, to spread awareness. I've posted over a hundred bots as of this moment in time and literally all of the links to the images I used come from Danbooru and... you probably know where I'm going with this. So if anyone is wondering why links aren't working, there's your answer.

The second reason? I just wanted to post a funny meme. Yeah.

Jokes aside, this is very concerning stuff the more I think about this kind of thing. It really just shows how fragile this invention called the Internet really is. Hopefully this will invoke more change to address these issues in the future because boy, am I getting some Watchdogs vibes seeing all of this unfold lol! But for now, all I say is to be safe out there friends. Tighten up those passwords. Start archiving stuff. If you like it, save it. It never hurts to have a backup plan!

As a wise man once said, that's it for today and as always, I hope you learned something. Take care y'all!
