According to The Internet Wayback Machine, the domain was available for purchase on January 7, 2014. It appears to have been taken around November 16 of that year, and the strange webpage was visible by December 18, 2014.
It maintained its simple appearance until sometime between November 10 of this year (2016) and November 26, 2016. It has now taken a completely different look, and is filled with vague language about an API for improving Internet presence (archive link: web.archive.org/web/20161127004552/https://thegroundwork.com/).
Erich Schmidt is jewing everyone with a "grassroots truth-seeking" blog. How the fuck else can you explain how quickly it got traction?
I swear I called it that the Groundwork was some serious jewery in the making. I wish I capped my post but I took this cap of the site and used it in my prediction.

Bumping and checking.

The first time I saw it I knew it was pretty fuking weird. They later updated the logo to have a "glitch" effect. Why would you do that, unless you want to come off as secret, powerful and creepy.
Charles Baker
Email this to whatshisface, Greenwald? The Snowden guy, he wrote an article about this bullshit website.
Nicholas Gutierrez
I did a day ago, no response. I'm hitting up Infowars right now.
Tyler Campbell
this is fucking creepy
Lincoln Mitchell
Damn Kanye was right on a whole different level.
Luke Parker
Everyone should be wise to this shit by now.
I call it the Jewish Day of Action. When you see the NY Times/BBC/WashPost bubble release synchronized narratives like the Aylan Kurdi photo, it's a Jewish Day of Action.
I though so too, but I'm on the east coast. When I do a regular ping or visit the wesite, it load from load balancers from the East. When I do a traceroute, either from my machine or from a website like check-host.net, it always resolves to that SF server.

That pic amuses me greatly

Why does it matter if it's owned by Google?
Serious question.
Grayson Reed
user trace route using different proxies. if it keeps coming from there than its safe to assume it is the origin server that the cdns replicate from. there's a ton of ways to find out where this is coming from. ask some wizards on irc for help
Leo Perez
Google's former CEO, now CEO of Alphabet (which owns Google) has been a very close supporter of Clinton. Google controls and helps direct a huge amount of the internet, and with close cooperation with the Democrats and figures like Soros, they are at a perfect position to spread the right kind of propaganda.
Liam Evans
hate to admit this, but I never figured out how to mess with their IRC.
I spent a lot of time trying to find alternative explanations, but I haven't come across any and this could be a good lead.
For reference, these are Google's datacenters according to them. None are in California where the fake news site is hosted. In the context of a regular internet provider, that makes sense since there's no reason to host a huge datacenter somewhere at the end of an internet route.

>Council Bluffs, Iowa lol what the fuck? Council Bluffs is probably the shittiest white city in America. it's like a small version of Detroit, but 90%+ white. why on earth did they put a data center there, of all places?
Noah Hall
It in the center of the nation, and some of it may go to Canada. The biggest datacenters (Google or not) in America are in St. Louis, Missouri.
Jonathan Hughes
it's just weird that they put it in Council Bluffs. Omaha is right across the river.
Dominic Davis
Government and corporations conspiring to constrain freedoms while increasing advertising revenue and centralizing media and thought? What's new?
Adrian Lewis
In case of nuclear attack, bro.
Cameron Cruz
moving it right across a river won't help in that scenario
Gabriel Clark
Folks, this is a long read but very, very illuminating and worth the time. Thank you, user.
Jordan Sanders
I meant it's in the center of the nation.
Michael Perez
It's a long read if u consider a tweet a normal sized read
Angel Lee
No prob, I should probably read the full book too.
