Wicked article, thanks Simon. I’ve created a FaceBook group if anyone feels like a bit of online activism.

Oh I think you should keep the link, the post itself is fine, maybe just warn people about the link! The same site comes up in Google not far under your own. Just worth a ‘NSFW’ kinda note next to it maybe?

Thanks for pointing that out James, I’ve removed the link. I guess that’s what happens when you use Google to retrieve an article you’ve previously read and just trust the search results! I apologise if I caused you or anyone else offence.

While a reasonable and inoffensive post, you’re linking to a white supremacist discussion forum… you should probably warn people they’re going to a potentially offensive site!

That aside I agree with your analysis… the redesign does fall short.
