Last Measure is a shock site made in 2004 by the Internet trolling organization GNAA, also known as Template:Wikipedia. The website was actively developed until 2010. There are plenty of variants of this website, as it is open source and can be downloaded and edited by everyone. When visiting the original website, a Goatse Image is shown then it will display one or more shock images, usually pornography, gore, disturbing pictures, or horrifying medical photographs from Wikipedia along with an extremely loud looped sound of a man saying "HEY EVERYBODY, I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!" in order to alert people near you. A script on the website will also try to open infinite tabs and massively use the "mailto" and "callto" function, intending to cause the user's computer to freeze while looking at shock images. the script will only work on Internet Explorer
This website uses browser exploits and tricks like the 'onmouseover' and 'onclick' functions to ignore pop-up blockers and spawn windows containing shock content moving around fast. Some people say that there were variants containing actual malware, but this could never be proved. Browsers such as Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, and other IE-based browsers are known to handle the website very poorly and may cause the entire device to crash.[citation needed]
There are some versions that use a script known as 'StatsMeasure,' which leaks the clipboard data to the Internet. Newer versions of Last Measure used a Java applet known as 'CoffeeMeasure' that spawns a lot of Java application windows moving around the screen. The Unified version of Last Measure contains lots of other shock images from The Pain Series. the external link was added at the Offended page.
Due to the extremely malicious behavior of all Last Measure versions, people that visit a site containing the script often think their computer is infected with a virus. Many internet browsers today may not execute all of the scripts or warn when some of the script portions are about to be executed, however, it may still cause temporary ruination. For example, on Safari it can still turn the browser into a fork bomb by opening mIRC and the default email client in a loop which causes the computer to slow down or even crash. There is a version of Last Measure that also uses code from the infamous JavaScript Trojan "Offiz" known as "You are an idiot" which presents the well-known Flash application called "rgb.swf": an 8-bit version of Axel Foley from Beverly Hills Cop film series with bright flashing RGB colors in an attempt to trigger an epileptic seizure.
GNAA announced a new version of Last Measure called RubyMeasure, which is completely written in the programming language "Ruby", will be released soon. However, it is unlikely that this version will be ever released since there has been no progress for a couple of years.
