The owner of occupykc.com, who is no longer a part of this movement and is attempting to drag it down as much as possible, is cloning our website.

Our new, "official (GA-approved) website is www.occupykc.net. That is .net.
It is NOT .com (which is owned by an individual who is not willing to give the OccupyKC collective full, irrevocable ownership or control)
It is NOT .org (which displays a splash page,and which currently re-directs to our official .net, but is also not under control of OccupyKC).

In order to bring clarification to our viewing internet audience, we are looking for individuals who can help out the Media WG.

If you locate somewhere online where the non-official dot com website address is displayed and/or linked to online (on something you believe is official, or from within an article or blog):
Please Send a link to your discovery to us at media (at) occupykc.net. subject:dot_com_discovery.

{ If you have the time to make contact with these sites yourself to initiate a correction, please communicate that with us as well. Thanks. }

In addition, please disseminate the correct URL _everywhere_ and feel free to forward this need to anyone you know who can help.

Questions/feedback? Feel free to share your ideas about how to deal with this. Thanks for all you guys do.

If it cannot be talked about here, can someone verify for me who this
is so I can take them off as a fb friend?
Thank you.

I am going to go change the DNS of whyweoccupy.com away from this
person as well since I am the one who registered it for Tyler.

Yes, Amy I will take an hour this afternoon and go to various on-line
sites and either change it or ask that it be changed. I will send a
list here of where I do this so that others can do it as well to
confirm the change of internet website as well as places that might be
missed.

Thank you Amy.

Hi Remote WG,

I am new to the group, if can be any help, pls let me know.

The current .net site still has a whole lot of .com in almost every
pages, they can be seen easily by searching the source code. I sent an
email to media last night, not sure if anyone got that message?
