Wikispooks is an online wiki dedicated to documenting what it refers to as "deep politics", or in other words, conspiracy theories.[1] The amount of misinformation spread by this particular wiki is far-ranging, however, the most common feature among their "deep politics" is simply the aspect that it contradicts that common understanding, and nothing more.

Site outage

In November of 2021, there was a 5 day outage from the 12th to the 17th.[2] Given the nature of the project, speculation abounded about possible censorship from the UK government, where the site is registered.[3][4][5] ProleWiki has independently confirmed that Wikispooks experienced an "advanced DDoS attack". They are continuing to investigate the specific origins of the attack.

Similar attacks had occurred earlier on the 26th of June, but these attacks only lasted for 8 hours. This 5 day outage marks an apparent intensification of attacks by unknown actors.
