One of the best things about 6ZEROS.net is that we can speak freely on here. That freedom means that we can discuss our issues on our terms with our people. We can be unapologetically Black, and we can build.
Because we so openly discuss Black issues, people outside of our community may have taken notice. Many of us are aware of other sites that have been infiltrated by agents & white supremacists who wear digital blackface. A common tactic of suspected white supremacists is to create fake online accounts, pretend to be Black, and troll and spy on us.
The good news is that these agents/ws/bots are usually easy to spot. Here are some telltale signs:

The good news is that these agents/ws/bots are usually easy to spot. Here are some telltale signs:
- They are unverified - Only verified Sixers have had their Blackness authenticated. We are who we say we are. Btw, you can get more information on verification here: About Verified Accounts
- They always try to be the Blackest person in the room - If someone goes out of their way to prove how "Blackity Black" they are to the point of overcompensating, they are probably a fraud.
- They tend to be overly argumentative - Many times, an agent's main goals are to antagonize, agitate, and cause chaos. Instead of engaging in productive conversations, they try to derail threads.
