'''Kekma.net''', formerly known as '''kekma.ga''', is a bait and switch [[shock site]] launched on the April 23rd, 2019. The site was created by Obok MeatGod, who is also known as [[User:Kekmaguy|Kekmaguy]] on the Screamer Wiki. The website previously purported to be a far-right [[Reddit]] clone, especially of [[wikipedia:R/The_Donald|r/The_Donald]] and [[wikipedia:Voat|Voat]].<ref><nowiki>https://www.reddit.com/r/okbuddyretard/comments/dhuu1h/join_now_and_get_a_free_iphone_wich_u_can_uze_to/</nowiki></ref>
'''Last Measure''' was a [[shock site]] created in 2003 by Penisbird, a member of the internet trolling group [[Wikipedia:Gay Nigger Association of America|Gay Nigger Association of America]] (GNAA).
Many variants of Last Measure exist, as the source code for several different versions was made available for download.
== Content ==
== History ==
=== 2019 ===
An early version of Last Measure was conceived by Penisbird after playing with an [[wikipedia:AIM_(software)|AOL Instant Messenger]] (AIM) utility called AIM Invader, which provided a variety of ways to crash AIM clients.<ref name=":0">web.archive.org/web/20040809015117/<nowiki>http://lastmeasure.com/history.php</nowiki></ref>
Upon opening, the website displayed a large "ENTER" button with an 18+ age warning and a link to the Kekma [[wikipedia:PeerTube|PeerTube]] site. This link once lead to a [[wikipedia:Discord|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 led to the e-mail of the "Kekma Crew." While the community link at the bottom led to Kekmatube, clicking ENTER forced the web browser to enter fullscreen mode, play two extremely loud sound effects of Loud Nigra,<ref>knowyourmeme.com/memes/loud-nigra</ref> change the cursor into a picture of a mutilated penis in the shape of a swastika, and in the middle of the page, display a video of a man squatting in a bathtub full of blood, forcing a large, bloodstained industrial screw down his urethra. The page background changed to two brightly flashing images: a man whose face was ripped off by a bear, and a medical image of a man who held a firecracker for too long.
The most powerful crash was the "last measure" crash, which inundated an AIM client with file transfer requests, [[wikipedia:Contact_list|buddy list]] sends, and messages full of smileys and colors, until the AIM client crashed due to lack of [[wikipedia:Random-access_memory|RAM]].<ref name=":0" />
=== 2020 ===
Prior to March 13, 2020, the video at the center 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 an image of interracial porn doctored to look like a man having sex with an exploded corpse, and a supposed movie prop of a zombie baby with a penis superimposed on top of it. This image was removed when the creator began having concerns that the source was a mislabeled medical image, rather than a prop. It was replaced by a dog being skinned and various other manipulated images.
==Behavior==
By October 2020, the site had changed to its final phase, briefly including the original liver cyst video by mistake.
Last Measure displayed pooped.jpg<ref name=":1">A picture of a woman's face with feces on it, which originates from bangedup.com.</ref> upon immediately entering the website. It set [[Goatse]] as the page's background. and opened numerous [[wikipedia:Web_browser|browser]] windows via a [[wikipedia:JavaScript|JavaScript]] function called procreate containing either [[Pillowfight]], [[Rotten.com#PenisBird|Penisbird]], [[Tubgirl]], or [[Lemon Party]]. It then used a function called playBall to move the windows around the screen. The page embedded a looping audio file called fsckyou.wav.mp3,<ref>A reference to [[wikipedia:Fsck|fsck]], a [[wikipedia:Unix|Unix]] utility that checks the [[wikipedia:File System|file system]] for damage.</ref> which was a sample of a man screaming "HEY EVERYBODY, I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!".
The text "GNAA > j00<ref>The spelling for "you" in [[wikipedia:Leet|leetspeak]].</ref> fristage postage<ref>"fristage postage" is a reference to [[wikipedia:First_post|first post]], an Internet meme written by an internet user to indicate their discovery of an until-then uncommented entry.</ref> is mine" appeared at the top of the page. Below was the text "Lastmeasure last measure last-measure nero institute", which may have been an attempt to get the page listed under [[wikipedia:Google_Search|Google]]. The title of the page was "Our lawyer has informed us that we need a warning. So, if you are under the age of 18 or find this offensive, pleae [sic]<ref>This typo is corrected in later versions. </ref> leave immediately", which is a reference to the text on the front page of [[Goatse.cx]]. If the user pressed Alt+F4, the Ctrl key, or the Del key, the page displayed an alert containing the same text as the page title.
=== 2022 ===
[[File:RIPKekma.jpeg|thumb|250px|The message displayed on Kekma.net shortly before its deletion in February 2022.]]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's content 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 encouraged 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.
Kekma.net was later restored in October due to popular demand. In spite of having been shut down for most of 2022, Kekma.net continues to find itself on ban lists and filters, having more recently been filtered by [[Wikipedia:Cisco|Cisco]].
[[File:Kekma July2024.png|thumb|The current appearance of Kekma.net, as of November 2023.]]
The page also had a button with the text "CLICK ME", which utilized the onmouseover<ref>Occurs when the cursor enters an element.</ref> and onclick<ref>Occurs when the user clicks on an element.</ref> events to call on the procreate and playBall functions to spawn more windows. If the user attempted to close any windows, the page utilized the onunload<ref>Occurs when the user navigates away from the page, such as by clicking a link or closing the browser window.</ref> event to spawn even more.
==Spread and history==
The earliest known post about kekma.ga was made by [[YouTube]] user Crocnic, who commented on the link on a YouTube video.<ref><nowiki>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=go2OFpO8fyo&lc=UgzS3tdZs246u2uDiq54AaABAg</nowiki></ref> Another post was made by u/SinfulPrince on r/Teenagers calling the website "cool and free."<ref>snew.notabug.io/r/teenagers/comments/dnlk2x/httpwwwkekmaga (Dead link)</ref>
Last Measure additionally checked if the browser was [[wikipedia:Internet_Explorer|Microsoft Internet Explorer]], and if the version of Internet Explorer was greater than or equal to 4. If both conditions were met, it saved the page URL as a bookmark titled “Idiot!”.
A flag reminiscent of the [[Wikipedia:Pepe the Frog#Kekistan|Kekistan]] and [[Wikipedia:Wehrmacht|Wehrmacht]] flags were also created around this time and became the [https://files.screamer.wiki/kekmaga.jpg de-facto flag for the website]. The flag has a picture of [[Wikipedia:Wabbit_Twouble#Big_Chungus|Big Chungus]] in the middle, a swastika in the corner, and the text "WE HATE NIGGERS" and "FREE SEX AT KEKMA.GA." The flag's colors were taken from the [[wikipedia:Gabon|Gabonese]] flag, as Gabon is the owner of the .ga top-level domain.
==Version 3.4.1==
Later posts came in the form of a brigade by u/TheRomanianAtheist, who first advertised the site on r/Adulting and titled the post "THE HOTTEST REDDIT ALTERNATIVE" and simply posted the link to the shock site multiple times. TheRomanAtheist continued to post about the website on other subreddits, claiming it was a "roleplay" and "webcomic" site, though, for the most part, TheRomanAtheist role-played as a [[Wikipedia:Donald Trump|Donald Trump]] supporter who hated minorities.
Last Measure Version 3.4.1 introduced several developments not found in the original mirror. The complete image list was christmas.jpg,<ref name=":2">A picture of a person stretching her anus to [[Goatse]] proportions with a table clamp.</ref> [[Lemon Party|lemonparty.jpg]], [[Rotten.com#PenisBird|ouch.jpg]],<ref>The image is called ouch.jpg. but the [[wikipedia:PHP|PHP]] file is called penisbird.php.</ref> [[Pillowfight|pillowfight.jpg]], [[Tubgirl|tubgirl.jpg]], [[spin.gif]], freak.jpg,<ref name=":3">A picture of a naked female body builder.</ref> rustina.jpg,<ref name=":4">A picture depicting Rusty's wife (rusty of [[wikipedia:Kuro5hin|Kuro5hin]], a popular [[wikipedia:Slashdot|Slashdot]]-like site). Her face is photoshopped onto a picture of a naked white woman having sex with a black man with a large penis.</ref> loopback.jpg,<ref name=":5">A picture of a man looping his penis into his anus from [[Goatse.cx]].</ref> and eww.jpg.<ref>A picture of a young girl, with two naked people in the background, with one of them exposing his buttocks. The text "The Fuck What?!" in red is visible, with the man's naked buttocks circled in red.</ref> Instead of embedding an [[wikipedia:MP3|MP3]] to play the "HEY EVERYBODY, I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!" audio sample, it embedded a [[Adobe Flash Player|Flash]] file called hey.swf.
The title of the page was "Our lawyer has informed us that we need a warning. So, if you are under the age of 18 or find this offensive, please leave immediately" and pressing Alt+F4 or the Ctrl key spawned an alert message with the same text. However, if the user pressed the Del key, it spawned an alert message containing credits:
After March 2020, the website's popularity died down. However, in June 2020, r/The_Donald user u/ProtectWhites role-played similarly to u/TheRomanAtheist and spammed Kekma.ga on Reddit.<ref><nowiki>https://patriots.win/u/ProtectWhites/?type=comment</nowiki></ref>

In July 2020, search interest for Kekma.ga spiked once again. On the 22nd of July 2020, the kekma.ga domain was seized for obscene content, and the site moved to kekma.xyz. Kekma.ga had a link to their Discord server on the front page. However, the Discord server was banned after the link gained attention after being circulating on several other servers.<ref name=":0" /> The link was later changed to kkkekma@protonmail.com, then changed to stumpgrinder.info, and finally to tube.kekmahub.com.

PROPS TO GNAA
</pre>
Version 3.4.1 contained the same "GNAA > j00 fristage postage is mine" and "Lastmeasure last measure last-measure nero institute" text found in the original mirror. However, it utilized a more elaborate [[wikipedia:Web_browser|browser]] checking protocol. Not only did it check if the browser was Internet Explorer and the version is greater than or equal to 4, it also checked if the browser was [[wikipedia:Netscape_Navigator|Netscape Navigator]] and if it was version 4, and checks if the browser was a [[wikipedia:Gecko_(software)|Gecko]]-based browser such as [[wikipedia:Firefox|Firefox]]. It additionally checked if the user's [[wikipedia:Operating_system|operating system]] is [[wikipedia:MacOS|macOS]].
The website then shut down a second time, as the kekma.xyz domain was seized by [[wikipedia:Namecheap|Namecheap]], who claimed that the site contained "support of violence." This was very likely due to a series of [[TikTok]] videos falsely claiming that Kekma had secret political extremist and [[wikipedia:Satanism|Satanism]]-related training sections, and used subliminal messages to cause violent thoughts. After kekma.xyz was closed, the site moved to the .net domain.
The procreate function in Version 3.4.1 served the same purpose of opening windows, but it only opened windows if the browser was Internet Explorer and randomly selected which shock image to display in the new window. The playBall function in Version 3.4.1 was largely unchanged, except that it lacked an [[wikipedia:Conditional_(computer_programming)|if statement]] found in the original mirror.
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 [[wikipedia:/pol/|/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.
The page utilized the onfocus,<ref>Occurs when an element gets focus.</ref> onblur,<ref>Occurs when an element loses focus.</ref> onmousemove,<ref>Occurs when the cursor moves over an element.</ref> onload,<ref>Occurs when an object has been loaded.</ref> onkeydown,<ref>Occurs when the user presses a key on the keyboard.</ref> and onunload events to open procreator.php in modeless dialog boxes.<ref>Modeless dialog boxes permit the user to interact with it while still being able to interact with other parts of the webpage or application, meaning that the user can move it around, click on other buttons or links, or perform other actions simultaneously. Modeless dialog boxes are unlike modal dialog boxes, which requires users to interact with it before they can continue interacting with other parts of the webpage or application.</ref> The page also had a large button labeled CLICK ME with pooped.jpg as the background, which made use of the onmouseover, onclick, and onmouseout<ref>Occurs when the mouse pointer moves out of an element.</ref> events to launch modeless dialog boxes containing procreator.php.
On September 11, 2020, a 41-minute video titled "The Kekma.net Movie" was released, and embedded on the site, below the entry button. It is a collaboration between multiple members of the Kekma.net community. It contains several YouTube Poops, various parodies, offensive jokes, and statements about the [[Wikipedia:September 11 attacks|September 11 attacks]]. The video ends with a picture of [[Wikipedia:Osama Bin Laden|Osama Bin Laden]] and the text "THIS MOVIE IS DEDICATED TO THE BRAVE MUJAHEDDIN FIGHTERS OF AFGHANISTAN."<ref><nowiki>https://tube.kekmahub.com/w/uYeF1NKTETMNRh1UCCMSt3</nowiki></ref> from the 1988 live-action film ''[[Wikipedia:Rambo III|Rambo III]]''. Shortly after the release of the movie, Kekma.net was blocked in Russia, and some other countries.<ref><nowiki>https://reestr.rublacklist.net/record/2497418</nowiki></ref>
Procreator.php executed the same payloads as the main page: spawning the alert and credits messages when specific keys are pressed, the browser and operating system checking protocol, and the procreate and playBall functions. The procreator.php file also contained the following text in first-level header tags: <pre>
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", a site 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.
PROCREATING LAST MEASURE!!!
GNAA > j00
Fristage Postage is MINE.
EAT THIS, GOOGLE TOOLBAR.
fucking nigger operating system.. at least in fucking Firebird you odn't have to do this shit.
</pre>Version 3.4.1's source code contained a string of text related to the development of the anti-popup blocker functionality:<pre>
/*
let's figure out what the fuck kind of browser the poor plebs are using :(
MSIE gets a special kind of last measure where I start off with a
ModelessDialog and pop up from it. Gets around google toolbar. -- goat-see */
</pre>The procreate function contained another code comment from goat-see:
fuck procreating like rabbits -- goat-see
There was another string of text in the source code that reads "If you have a screen larger than this i'll eat my own shit. - this button shit is +1 insightful.". It was not rendered as visible text on the page as it was not enclosed within any HTML tags or any visual elements.
== Version 4.1 ==
The website continued to grow, with the site having a peak Alexa rating of 277,995 in December 2020 globally, and a rating of 125,404 in the United States. On the day of its closure, Kekma.net had an Alexa rating of 930,135, showing that the site had lost its original popularity.<ref><nowiki>https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/kekma.net</nowiki></ref>
Version 4.1 used the same image list<ref>PenisBird is replaced with the [[wikipedia:GIF|GIF]] version that depicts the macaw masturbating the penis until ejaculation.</ref> and hey.swf file as 3.4.1, but introduced several new developments. The title of the page was "GNAA Last Measure v4.1 by Rucas with Armorfist's PopupByPasser Mod.". The function that opened windows was renamed shellscript, and the function that moved windows around was renamed movew0w. In contrast to previous versions that used basic [[wikipedia:Arithmetic|arithmetical]] calculations, movew0w used [[wikipedia:Trigonometry|trigonometric]] calculations to determine the window position. The page embedded two [[Adobe Flash Player|Flash]] files, first_opener.swf and second_opener.swf, which opened windows.
It checked whether the user's operating system was [[wikipedia:Microsoft_Windows|Windows]], [[wikipedia:MacOS|macOS]], [[wikipedia:Linux|Linux]], [[wikipedia:OS/2|OS/2]], or [[wikipedia:BeOS|BeOS]]. It also specifically checked if the user's [[wikipedia:Web_browser|browser]] was either [[wikipedia:Opera_(web_browser)|Opera]], [[wikipedia:MSN_TV|WebTV]], [[wikipedia:Internet_Explorer|Internet Explorer]], [[wikipedia:NetPositive|NetPositive]], [[wikipedia:Internet_Explorer_Mobile|MS Pocket Internet Explorer]], [[wikipedia:Galeon|Galeon]], [[wikipedia:Konqueror|Konqueror]], [[wikipedia:ICab|iCab]], [[wikipedia:OmniWeb|OmniWeb]], Phoenix,<ref>The initial code name for [[wikipedia:Firefox|Firefox]]. </ref> Firebird<ref>The replacement name for Phoenix, due to a trademark claim from [[wikipedia:Phoenix_Technologies|Phoenix Technologies]].</ref>, [[wikipedia:Firefox|Firefox]],<ref>The replacement name for Firebird, due to pressure from the [[wikipedia:Firebird_(database_server)|Firebird]] database software project.</ref> Mozilla,<ref>Refers to the original codebase of the [[wikipedia:Netscape_Navigator|Netscape Navigator]] web browser, which was eventually rewritten and evolved into [[wikipedia:Firefox|Mozilla Firefox]].</ref> [[wikipedia:Lynx_(web_browser)|Lynx]], [[wikipedia:Amaya_(web_editor)|Amaya]], [[wikipedia:Safari_(web_browser)|Safari]], [[wikipedia:Netscape_(web_browser)|Netscape]], or [[wikipedia:AOL_Explorer|AOL Browser]].
In late June 2021, BitChute banned FartMeister, the channel where all Kekma videos were located, and several other Kekma-related accounts. Later in August 2021, the kekmachannel was moved to tube.kekmahub.com. In 2022, with the permission of the original Kekma [[hosts]], a mirror called "kekma.live" was brought up. Later, a donation link was also posted there. This site is not owned by the Kekma Crew, who have a policy against asking for money of any kind.
One notable feature of Version 4.1 was that it retrieved and submitted the user's [[wikipedia:Clipboard_(computing)|clipboard]] data to a hidden form. It also collected other various user data and utilized a [[wikipedia:PHP|PHP]] script called StatsMeasure to compile it into a table. The table contained the following data:
===Creator response===
See pinned comment.
*ID: The unique identifier of each visit.
===Showcase Video===
*Time: The date and time of the visit.
[[File:Kekma net 2160p.mp4|400px]]
*Host: [[wikipedia:Hostname|Hostname]], [[wikipedia:IP_address|IP address]], and [[wikipedia:Port_(computer_networking)|port number]] of the visitor.
*Browser: The visitor's browser information.
*Referrer: The website that referred the visitor to the current page.
*User: The string appended to the end of the URL so that a user can track how many times a victim has clicked their link.
*Clipboard: The content of the [[wikipedia:Clipboard_(computing)|clipboard]].
==Last Measure Unified X==
==References==
Last Measure Unified X contained a long slew of keywords in its [[wikipedia:Metadata|metadata]] and on the main page itself, which may have been an attempt to get the page listed under [[wikipedia:Google_Search|Google]]. It utilized the browser checking protocol from Version 3.4.1. The title of the page was "GNAA Last Measure Unified X". Pressing the Alt+F4 or Ctrl key spawned an alert with the text "Our lawyer has informed us that we need a warning. So, if you are under the age of 18 or find this offensive, please leave immediately". However, pressing the Del key spawned an alert message containing credits that read: <pre>

Similar to versions 3.4.1 and 4.1, it embedded hey.swf to play the "HEY EVERYBODY, I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!" sample. The image list also included 16 [[wikipedia:WAV|WAV]] files of various GNAA members reciting "HEY EVERYBODY, I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!".[[File:UnifiedX Stats.png|thumb|The stats table generated by Unified X.]]The movew0w function returned in Unified X, but the shellscript function was renamed back to procreate. Windows spawned by procreate contained the text "GNAA Gay Niggers Timecop". The main page utilized the onload, onmousemove, onmouseover, and onkeydown events to call on the procreate and movew0w functions. If the user attempted to close any windows, the page would utilize the onunload event to call upon those same functions.
Unified X introduced a function named ruin which calls an [[wikipedia:Infinite_loop|infinite loop]] in an attempt to freeze the browser. It also made various outbound connections. The site attempted to connect to the GNAA and [[wikipedia:EFnet|EFnet]] [[wikipedia:Internet_Relay_Chat|IRC]] servers, attempted to access the alt.flame.niggers and alt.flame.faggots [[wikipedia:Usenet_newsgroup|Usenet newsgroups]], and used rlogin and telnet<ref>rlogin and telnet are remote login protocols used to establish a login session on a remote computer over a network. telnet allows the user to pass [[wikipedia:Environment_variable|environment variables]] as parameters, while rlogin does not. rlogin allows the user to automatically connect, while telnet requires verification for each connection. Both rlogin and telnet transmit data in [[wikipedia:Plain_text|plain text]], making intercepted information easily readable. Due to security vulnerabilities and the availability of more secure protocols, rlogin and telnet are no longer widely used in modern networking environments.</ref> to attempt to connect to a remote address. It also contained a callto hyperlink to dial JOIN_THE_GNAA__2005_RECRUITMENT_DRIVE, and opened up the computer’s default [[wikipedia:Email_client|email client]] to compose a message to the email address JOIN@THE.GNAA with "2006_RECRUITMENT_DRIVE" as the subject and "www.gnaa.us" as the body.
Additionally, it opened up [[wikipedia:AIM_(software)|AOL Instant Messenger]] to send a message to the user "Gary_Niger" with the body "HY LOL HY LOL", and attempted to add the screennames HY, LOL, HY, LOL, HY, LOL, join, the, gnaa, 2006, RECRUITMENT, DRIVE, heartiez2incog to the AIM [[wikipedia:Contact_list|buddy list]].
The page also downloaded three files. Two of these files were "jews.wmv" and "lm.pdf". The [[wikipedia:Windows_Media_Video|WMV]] did not play or function in any way, and the [[wikipedia:PDF|PDF]] file was a redirect to Last Measure. It also attempted to download "[[wikipedia:Gayniggers_from_Outer_Space|Gayniggers From Outer Space]] [GNAA Digitally Remastered].avi" from an [[wikipedia:EDonkey_network|eDonkey]] file-sharing network.
Similar to Version 4.1, Unified X collected various user information and compiled it into a table using StatsMeasure. Users could get their name added to the "count" table by appending "?u=yourname" to the end of the URL.<ref name=":6">web.archive.org/web/20120115131335/<nowiki>http://www.gnaa.eu:80/wiki/support</nowiki></ref> It also introduced LMX Live Stats, which which tracked the number of times a user was redirected.<ref>encyclopediadramatica.online/Last_Measure#Last_Measure_Unified_X</ref>
==Last Measure Live==
[[File:Nimp.org screenshot.jpg|thumb|Last Measure Live attempting to access alt.flame.faggots, but failing due to insufficient memory.]]
Last Measure Live is the current version of Last Measure. It contains many of the payloads found in Unified X but has several new additions.
Last Measure Live introduces more [[wikipedia:WAV|WAV]] files of various GNAA members reciting "HEY EVERYBODY, I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!", bringing the total number of clips up to 26. The original "HEY EVERYBODY, I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!" audio clip is included as two WAV files, one called original.wav and the other called HEY.wav.
The directory of images is expanded to include balloonboy.jpg,<ref>Image not archived.</ref> gratin.jpg,<ref>An image of feces in a dish.</ref> [[Harlequin Fetus|harlequin4.jpg]], kiss.jpg,<ref>A gore image similar to zoidberg.jpg.</ref> lunch.jpg,<ref>An image of a man covered in feces engaging in coprophagia, from [[The Mac User|themacuser.org]].</ref> and smile.jpg.<ref>Image not archived.</ref> The index.php file references several more images sourced from [[Wikipedia:Wikimedia_Commons|Wikimedia Commons]]: SOA-Condylomata-acuminata-female.jpg,<ref>An image of a vulva afflicted by ''condylomata acuminata'', commonly known as genital warts.</ref> Agent-orange-dead-deformed-babies.jpg,<ref>An image of stillborn babies with deformities resulting from prenatal exposure to Agent Orange.</ref> Sodomie.jpg,<ref> An image of a man with a zucchini inserted in the anus.</ref> Masturbation-Toys_Fleshlight_%28Masturbations-Spielzeug-Hilfsmittel_Fleshlight%29.gif,<ref> A GIF depicting a worm's eye view of a man penetrating a fleshlight.</ref> Child_with_Smallpox_Bangladesh.jpg,<ref>An image of a young girl with smallpox.</ref> JJ_AND_TJ.jpg,<ref> An image of a pierced penis about to penetrate a pierced vulva.</ref> Breast_reconstruction_02.jpg,<ref>An image of breast reconstruction surgery.</ref> Scat-01.jpg,<ref>The same image as gratin.jpg.</ref> and Anal3.jpg.<ref>An image of an anus with something lodged inside of it.</ref>
Mirrors of Last Measure Live that received complaints replaced the page content with the following text in first-level header tags: "Sorry, the [website URL] website has been removed due to a complaint. Instead, you can learn more about tobacco-induced cancer on Google Images by clicking here. Please quit smoking." The last two sentences are hyperlinked to a [[wikipedia:Google_Images|Google Images]] search for "tobacco cancer".
==Seizure Measure==
Seizure Measure, also known as Browser Bomb, used the same window-spawning and window-moving protocol as the original Last Measure, but embedded a [[Adobe Flash Player|Flash]] file called rgb.swf which contained music and bright flashing colors. The title of the page was “you have violated internet law. the authorities are being contacted.” and pressing Alt+F4, Ctrl, or Del spawned an alert with the message “You have violated Internet Law. The authorities are being contacted.”.
Similar to Last Measure, Seizure Measure checked if the browser was [[wikipedia:Internet_Explorer|Microsoft Internet Explorer]] and if the version was 4 or higher, and if both conditions were met, it saved the page URL as a bookmark titled "Idiot!". It also attempted to set the page URL as the browser's homepage.
==Last Measure Operating System==
Last Measure Operating System (LMOS) is a minimalist [[wikipedia:Operating_system|operating system]] developed by [[wikipedia:Sam_Hocevar|Sam Hocevar]], a member of the GNAA division [[wikipedia:Goatse_Security|Goatse Security]]. It is written in [[wikipedia:X86_assembly_language|x86 assembly]] and will boot on any x86 computer. Due to its small size, it can easily fit on a CD, floppy disk, or USB drive.
[[File:LMOSFramework.png|thumb|303x303px|The framework of LMOS.]]
The default LMOS theme contains the following shock images: [[Goatse|hello.jpg]], [[Tubgirl|tub.jpg]], loopback.jpg,<ref name=":5" /> [[Harlequin Fetus|harlequin.jpg]], pooped.jpg,<ref name=":1" /> [[Pillowfight|pillowfight.jpg]], and [[Lemonparty|lemonparty.jpg]], and the "HEY EVERYBODY, I’M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!" audio sample.

* Several Last Measure mirrors made use of [[wikipedia:Wildcard_DNS_record|wildcard domains]].
** The full list of wildcard domains was: *.on.nimp.org, *.on.zoy.org, *.roflol.fr, *.ipademu.com, *.ipad-crack.com, *.4chanmirror.com, *.animeforums.eu, *.animetorrents.me, *.moviepiayer.com, *.ircpaste.me, *.troiiing.com, *.mediapiayer.com, *.antignaa.com, *.nimpblock.com, *.wikipaste.eu, *.bioghost.com, *.sarahpaiin.com, *.iinux.be, and *.feenode.net.
* Many Last Measure mirrors made use of [[wikipedia:Bait-and-switch|bait-and-switch]] tactics to deceive victims into visiting them.
** The mirror forums.ddrparadise.eu.org was created to deceive those looking for the DDRParadise forums into visiting Last Measure. The forums were actually located at boards.ddrparadise.eu.org.
** Many wildcard mirrors, such as *.bioghost.com, utilized the upper case "i" (*.bIoghost.com) as it can easily be mistaken for a lower case "l". In the case of *.bioghost.com, the use of the upper case "i" may have deceived the victim into thinking they were accessing a [[wikipedia:Blog|blogging]] platform.

* The mirror cshacks.partycat.us ran a version of Last Measure called Last Measure Version 3.4.4 Saturn. While its index.php was not archived, the stats.php page can be accessed, revealing that It used StatsMeasure to generate a table of various user data.
* An early version of Unified X called Unified differed in several ways:
** It did not have the list of keywords on its main page or in its metadata.
** It did not include any [[Harlequin Fetus]] images or images from the [[The Pain Series|Pain Series]].
** The file that it attempted to download from [[wikipedia:EDonkey_network|eDonkey]] was "[[wikipedia:Star_Wars:_Episode_III_–_Revenge_of_the_Sith|Star.Wars.Episode.III.Revenge.of.the.Sith]].2005.PROPER.DVDRip.XviD-GNAA.avi".
** It contained a function called extruin, which entered a [[wikipedia:For_loop|for loop]] that iterated five times. In each iteration of the loop, it called the functions add(mail) and add(news). After all five loops completed, it called on the ruin function.
*The GNAA released an updated version of Unified X called Unified X-2 which was more effective at bypassing pop-up blockers and other browser security protocols. It was made available via private distribution in the GNAA IRC channel.<ref name=":6" />
*According to [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], the GNAA was developing a version of Last Measure called RubyMeasure, which was to be written in the [[wikipedia:Ruby (programming language)|Ruby]] programming language. It was expected to launch in May 2013, but was ultimately cancelled.<ref>encyclopediadramatica.online/Last_Measure#Ruby_Measure</ref>

Content Warning!
The following work contains content and material that some may find shocking. Reader discretion is advised.
Kekma.net, formerly known as kekma.ga, is a bait and switch shock site launched on the April 23rd, 2019. The site was created by Obok MeatGod, who is also known as Kekmaguy on the Screamer Wiki. The website previously purported to be a far-right Reddit clone, especially of r/The_Donald and Voat.[1]
Upon opening, the website displayed 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.[2] A link at the very top of the page led to the e-mail of the "Kekma Crew." While the community link at the bottom led to Kekmatube, clicking ENTER forced the web browser to enter fullscreen mode, play two extremely loud sound effects of Loud Nigra,[3] change the cursor into a picture of a mutilated penis in the shape of a swastika, and in the middle of the page, display a video of a man squatting in a bathtub full of blood, forcing a large, bloodstained industrial screw down his urethra. The page background changed to two brightly flashing images: a man whose face was ripped off by a bear, and a medical image of a man who held a firecracker for too long.
2020
Prior to March 13, 2020, the video at the center 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 an image of interracial porn doctored to look like a man having sex with an exploded corpse, and a supposed movie prop of a zombie baby with a penis superimposed on top of it. This image was removed when the creator began having concerns that the source was a mislabeled medical image, rather than a prop. It was replaced by a dog being skinned and various other manipulated images.
By October 2020, the site had changed to its final phase, briefly including the original liver cyst video by mistake.
2022
The message displayed on Kekma.net shortly before its deletion in February 2022.
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's content 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 encouraged 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.
Kekma.net was later restored in October due to popular demand. In spite of having been shut down for most of 2022, Kekma.net continues to find itself on ban lists and filters, having more recently been filtered by Cisco.
The current appearance of Kekma.net, as of November 2023.
Spread and history
The earliest known post about kekma.ga was made by YouTube user Crocnic, who commented on the link on a YouTube video.[4] Another post was made by u/SinfulPrince on r/Teenagers calling the website "cool and free."[5]
A flag reminiscent of the Kekistan and Wehrmacht flags were also created around this time and became the de-facto flag for the website. The flag has a picture of Big Chungus in the middle, a swastika in the corner, and the text "WE HATE NIGGERS" and "FREE SEX AT KEKMA.GA." The flag's colors were taken from the Gabonese flag, as Gabon is the owner of the .ga top-level domain.
Later posts came in the form of a brigade by u/TheRomanianAtheist, who first advertised the site on r/Adulting and titled the post "THE HOTTEST REDDIT ALTERNATIVE" and simply posted the link to the shock site multiple times. TheRomanAtheist continued to post about the website on other subreddits, claiming it was a "roleplay" and "webcomic" site, though, for the most part, TheRomanAtheist role-played as a Donald Trump supporter who hated minorities.
After March 2020, the website's popularity died down. However, in June 2020, r/The_Donald user u/ProtectWhites role-played similarly to u/TheRomanAtheist and spammed Kekma.ga on Reddit.[6]
In July 2020, search interest for Kekma.ga spiked once again. On the 22nd of July 2020, the kekma.ga domain was seized for obscene content, and the site moved to kekma.xyz. Kekma.ga had a link to their Discord server on the front page. However, the Discord server was banned after the link gained attention after being circulating on several other servers.[2] The link was later changed to kkkekma@protonmail.com, then changed to stumpgrinder.info, and finally to tube.kekmahub.com.
The website then shut down a second time, as the kekma.xyz domain was seized by Namecheap, who claimed that the site contained "support of violence." This was very likely due to a series of TikTok videos falsely claiming that Kekma had secret political extremist and Satanism-related training sections, and used subliminal messages to cause violent thoughts. After kekma.xyz was closed, the site moved to the .net domain.
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 September 11, 2020, a 41-minute video titled "The Kekma.net Movie" was released, and embedded on the site, below the entry button. It is a collaboration between multiple members of the Kekma.net community. It contains several YouTube Poops, various parodies, offensive jokes, and statements about the September 11 attacks. The video ends with a picture of Osama Bin Laden and the text "THIS MOVIE IS DEDICATED TO THE BRAVE MUJAHEDDIN FIGHTERS OF AFGHANISTAN."[7] from the 1988 live-action film Rambo III. Shortly after the release of the movie, Kekma.net was blocked in Russia, and some other countries.[8]
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", a site 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.
The website continued to grow, with the site having a peak Alexa rating of 277,995 in December 2020 globally, and a rating of 125,404 in the United States. On the day of its closure, Kekma.net had an Alexa rating of 930,135, showing that the site had lost its original popularity.[9]
In late June 2021, BitChute banned FartMeister, the channel where all Kekma videos were located, and several other Kekma-related accounts. Later in August 2021, the kekmachannel was moved to tube.kekmahub.com. In 2022, with the permission of the original Kekma hosts, a mirror called "kekma.live" was brought up. Later, a donation link was also posted there. This site is not owned by the Kekma Crew, who have a policy against asking for money of any kind.
