Stormfront: 'murder capital of internet' pulled offline after civil rights action

Web.com pulls support for one of the oldest and largest neo-nazi hate sites following campaign by Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law

One of the oldest and largest neo-nazi sites on the internet, the white supremacist chatroom Stormfront, has been thrown off the open web by its domain registrar.
Stormfront has been described by the anti-hate group Southern Poverty Law Center as the "murder capital of the internet". The group pointed out that "registered Stormfront users have been disproportionately responsible for some of the most lethal hate crimes and mass killings since the site was put up in 1995. In the past five years alone, Stormfront members have murdered close to 100 people."

As of Tuesday morning, Stormfront.org was unavailable, with the site's domain registry recording that its domain registrar Network Solutions had issued a "hold" on the address.
