'''Kekma.net''', formerly called '''kekma.ga''', is a bait and switch [[shock site]] launched on the 23rd of April, 2019. The site was created by a man known only by his screen name "[[User:Kekmaguy|Obok MeatGod]]" (also known as Kekmaguy on this wiki).

Once opened, the website displays a large "ENTER" button with an 18+ age warning and a link to the Kekma PeerTube site. This link once lead to a Discord server, before the server was taken down by Discord administrators.<ref name=":0"><nowiki>https://www.stumpgrinder.info</nowiki></ref>A link at the very top of the page leads to the e-mail of the "Kekma Crew." While the community link at the bottom leads to the Kekmatube, clicking ENTER forces the web browser into fullscreen, plays two extremely loud sound effects of World's Loudest Orgasm, changes your cursor into a picture of a mutilated penis in the shape of a swastika, and plays a video of a man squatting in a bathtub full of blood, forcing a large, bloodstained industrial screw down his urethra in the middle of the page. The page background also changes to two brightly flashing images: a man whose face was smashed by a bear, and a surgical image of a man who held a firecracker for too long.

Prior to March 13, 2020, the video at the centre of the site was a medical recording of pork tapeworm cysts being pressed from a human liver, and the background images went through various iterations. The most infamous pair was a photoshop of interracial porn made to look like a man having sex with an exploded corpse, and a supposed movie prop of a zombie baby with a penis photoshopped over the top of it. This image was removed when the creator began having concerns that the source was a mislabeled medical image, rather than a dummy. It was replaced by a Chinese dog skinning, and various other photoshops.

On February 16, 2022, Kekma.net reached 30 million visits, and the creator removed all shocking content from the site, after three years of operation. The site briefly changed to a message explaining that the site had served its purpose, which was to study how a shock site can spread across the world with no advertising budget on the modern internet. The creator encourages people to make their own website to replace Kekma.net. Despite the shutdown of Kekma.net, the two community websites, stumpgrinder.info and tube.kekmahub.com, remain active. Twelve days later, on February 28, Kekma.net's hosting provider completely removed the site. Kekma.net then changed to a video on tube.kekmahub.com.

In July and August 2020, Kekma.net continued to spread, although the website was no longer at its peak of popularity. On August 24, an anonymous user started a thread on [[4chan]]'s /pol/ board about the website, claiming that there were "no nu-right larpers there," and many other users continued to mislead political communities into visiting the site.

On October 6, 2020, the Kekma Crew created another [[shock site]] called [[WomensAlliance.xyz]], which was similar to Kekma.net. The website was created from the scraps of a previous plan called "BrownAction", which was intended to look like a race activism website but was ultimately abandoned, as the original design proposed would likely require malware to function, transforming it from an annoyance to a crime.
