New "Mission" of RPF

@yerrag
great breakdown of the 'useful App that is no longer'. And the symbol of 'more to come' down the road. Tech that gives you a nudge left or right, up or down, but not actually have any useful #s as Data for yourself.I have an old iphone 4, which cannot do phone as there is no longer 2G here or in the US. Still works fine. I kept it as back up for my recently received iphone 6. We got old tech that works just fine. Til apple stuffs the OS, or 4G gets outmoded.

I'm done with the RPF, but if you really want to raise the ire of the 'toxic a' crowd wherever you may find them, try asking them why the liver converts carotenoids to vitamin a in the first place.

According to this analytics site, Ray Peat Forum headquarters are in Cambridge, UK - not Florida where “Charlie” lives
Seems strange since these other websites have accurate locations:
RPF was more popular than you might think - the #211 ranked website in the world for health/nutrition. Compare to these similar sites:
But now traffic levels are tanking...
Even if they’re just returning to normal levels from Mercola boosting views in January, we can see here that pageviews and time on site have fallen off a cliff
This website also says that RPF HQ is in the UK: “Ray Peat Forum's headquarters are located at Tennis Ct Rd, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, CB2 1PD, United Kingdom”

@ilovethesea He probably hosting the site on a server stationed in the UK. It's not a uncommon thing to see for people hosting a web site. Maybe that's why he's also charging people money now. He might have gotten tired paying for it after all these years.

@ilovethesea
Interesting, though I wonder how 'accurate' these numbers are.
The first PIC shows that raypeat.com has 11-50 employees???
And it makes $1 - $2 Million in annual revenues?!
Hmmmm. Anyhow, stats can be influential for certain decisions. For us as individuals and for other $$$ types. Carry on ! -

I'm not sure about this. Early on I was looking at some info about the site and got references to Iceland I think. Anyway after looking at it some more I realized it was the hosting site/network whatever. This seems odd to show HQ in England IMO. I'm sure these reporting sites take into account server hosting otherwise it would be all over the place. I could be wrong, but I find this suspect.

@C-Mex Whois still lists Iceland.

This information comes up when you do a search for the owner of the domain name RayPeatForum.

The server is Cloudflare which is US based.

I think it has to do with the Cloudflare service.

@C-Mex Interesting that the registry was JUST updated on Jan. 11, 2024. Maybe that is when he transferred ownership to whatever entity is in the UK.

https://iplocation.io/website-server-software/raypeatforum.comThis is bombshell info if we are reading this right. The RPF has been a fraud from the beginning.
-
Was the registry address changed?

The Iceland thing is Namecheap which is where he originally registered the domain - talks about it here https://www.namecheap.com/blog/domain-privacy-is-changing-at-namecheap/
-
Oh, I see where you are getting that. Actually I think that is just like a renewal for the domain name. A similar search for raypeat.com shows it was updated (extended I think) until 2026, but that doesn't imply any address change I don't think.

@ilovethesea said in New "Mission" of RPF:

This address is associated with Cambridge University
-
Makes me think of the great work by Mike Benz, where the now mature censorship industry has taken root in gov't cutouts within academia like Stanford's Internet 'Observatory' and think tanks like the Atlantic Council, doing the work the gov't is prohibited doing by law. I feel like the RPF is some kind of 'counter-misinformation' project funded by the Uniparty on both sides of the pond.
-
@C-Mex Oh okay that makes sense. There is an archived version of that page on SimilarWeb but it won’t give access https://web.archive.org/web/20230301174108/https://www.similarweb.com/website/raypeatforum.com/
For what it’s worth I just looked up my own projects on SimilarWeb and the address is 100% accurate. Not sure how it knows.
Edit - I guess Cambridge is some kind of spook university?? It says here it has links to British intelligence. https://consortiumnews.com/2022/12/21/cambridge-universitys-course-for-spooks/

Plus the CIA, French Security Services and others I don't recognize offhand. -
These people don't suddenly take over an online forum from some dude in Florida.
