Dear Panquake Community,

It's been a wonderful start to the New Year for our hardworking team. Our very own Sean O'Brien wrote a searing hot technical report for Talk Liberation Investigates that has been ricocheting around the internet. The article exposes pervasive and shocking data mining practices of new social media application GETTR.

With Talk Liberation's research being cited and linked to by a growing list of mainstream press outlets including The New Yorker, Vice, Gizmodo, The Daily Dot and more, unprecedented amounts of traffic are filtering through to Talk Liberation and Panquake.com. Very exciting for our Community!

Twitter Unexpectedly Unbans Panquake Accounts

More great news - on the same day this was all happening, Twitter unbanned the full suite of Panquake accounts, and finally moved our followers and historical content to @panquake (replacing the old @pan_quake). This is a welcome resolution to the unjust banning of our accounts that removed our Twitter presence through the crucial Christmas & New Year period.

We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the many hundreds of Twitter users who tweeted @TwitterSupport advocating for the wrongful suspensions of our accounts to be lifted.

Yet again you have proved that your collective voices are powerful!

Phase Three Fundraising - The Faster We Hit The Target The Faster We Deliver

With last month's huge delivery announcement regarding Panquake having hit another development milestone, it's time now to fundraise, fundraise, fundraise so that we can begin to put in place the systems that will support users through the delivery period. That means, customer service, accounts administrators, technical support staff and content moderators just to name a few.

As you know, we don't have corporate PR or advertising - this is a grassroots, word-of-mouth campaign and so far you have all helped to make it a huge success. This is now the final leg - once we hit 100% on this Phase 3 target there will be no more public fundraising required and we will deliver the Panquake BETA! Please DONATE HERE to help it happen sooner. Let's pull together for this one last big effort - the faster we complete this funding round, the faster we all get Panquake.

Thank you so much for your care and attention

With love,

- The Panquake Team
