Sounds fake af

yea very fake

they probably made it themselves just for a few retweets

Would that even work? Looks like the sticker would just come off more easily

would only work if the blade was on the edge

where you would poke it with your fingernail

Yeah, I can see that.

What the actual fuck is that vice thing? Holy shit!

I'm not finding evidence of the original tweet.

I think its more of an Inb4 meme

Yeah. It's being sold on here without context

It's really not helping fight against fake news by propagating fake news.

Well

The funny part is I 100% believed it

I expect complete stupidity from VICE

@RyeNorth i don't think that was even a tweet but a facebook message.

I see. Still, all the things that reference it use that same picture, nothing else.

Which implies that all the people reporting on this are reporting based on a single screencap it seems.

o_o

archive.is still works on vice.com

so either it's a fake screencap, they failed to block it, or they changed their minds.

i don't have fbook so i can't check

I tried to check

I found nothing.

Everyone I saw while checking people reporting on it

I got z-list websites like The Ralph Retort, going on typo-laden articles about it.

They're all using the exact same screenshot.

And no links.

Reporting on it as if it's fact.

I don't think you can even block it

don't archive services desguise the bots as regular users?

i don't know exactly how archive.is does it, but it's not hard to conceive of unblockable methods.

I do know that some websites have on occasion succeeded in blocking archive.is though. NYT occasionally succeeds, at least for a while.

i found stuff from early 2017 on that vice/archive thing... so even if it is a real screenshot, it most certainly is not actually in effect

i miss jontron

There is always a way to circumnavigate those blocks. I use archive.is a lot. When I find one, I run it though https://via.hypothes.is . Archive.is does this automatically for some websites like Vice.

You can also get past these blocks sometimes by using links from different sources. For example they may have archive blocked from archiving a page directly, but if you do it from a twitter link or Facebook link it sometimes bypasses them. Just copy the link directly from their tweets. Sometimes it’s the opposite. For a bit CNN money wouldn’t let me archive it from the twitter link, but if I used google to get to the story I could .

I think vice propably wants to block it, but in my oppinion this is a joke if no one can provide a source. Stop perpetuating it
