Anne.jpg: Difference between revisions

'''Anne.jpg''' was a [[screamer]] webpage. The purpose of it was to mislead the user, disguising itself as a .jpg file. It was originally located on the website [[Akk.li|akk.li]] as a file directory, created by Xenox sometime between 2011-2012.  

The website [[420yolo.com]] was launched in March 2013, and used the same screamer as Anne.jpg. It was posted on numerous subreddits, all of them being disguised.

In May, the website [[Findminecraft.com]] was created and received popularity in 2015 after popular ''Minecraft'' [[YouTube|YouTuber]] DanTDM showcased the site in a video.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcOFinI8GbA&t=14m DanTDM's video] being tricked from Findminecraft.com</ref>

Another mirror called "Topkek.co" existed for a while (around 2014). This version would download malware on the visitors device, and was spammed for a long time in /b/ on [[4chan]], since "Topkek" is a 4chan meme<ref>[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/topkek Topkek] Definition</ref>, and its purpose was to lure people in, making them think the website is associated with Topkek in some way.

In late 2014, the domain [[Agor.io]] was registered. It was the most famous mirror since many people were prone to misspelling the second "a" and replacing it with an "o" instead. The website also included a malicious script that prevented the user from closing the site by displaying the alert message "U SCARED BRO LOL". The website especially grew popular on Reddit. This post in particular was supposedly written by a parent whose child had an epileptic seizure trying to play Agar.io but misspelled it as Agor.io instead. The mother was attempting to file a lawsuit against the owner of the website, revealed to be Preston Kellenberger, living in Sardinia, Ohio.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20190821192018/https://screamer.fandom.com/wiki/Thread:6068</ref> Agor.io now redirects to a 404 error page.
