Shutting down his disgusting revenge-porn site has, if possible, just brought more hate on the already very loathed Hunter Moore.
After a year of media criticism, threatened lawsuits and a stabbing, Moore, in a series of tweets, including one with that Instagram photo to the right, and a blog post, Moore announced the end of "Is Anyone Up?" a site, where people submitted nude photos of an ex or recent hookup or anyone worth shaming for Moore to post along with demeaning quips and the naked person's identifying social media information. Like we said, it's gross. It's actually even grosser than that, as Moore's site brought out the child porn crowd, a reason he cites for shutting down his project. "I just cant take the little kids naked being submitted anymore. im sorry," he tweeted this afternoon.
As endearing as that reasoning is -- he's doing it for all those molested children! -- Moore's still a "scumbag," "horrible human being," and several less flattering things to his detractors. The hate's partly because his farewell includes a lot of hypocrisy and not much repentance. Here's the closest he gets to an apology: "Even though there was drama and lots of tears and pissed off parents, I feel blessed and thankful for all of you who came here to support me." That's because Moore isn't quitting because of remorse, he's quitting because of exhaustion. His attitude about what he does hasn't changed. Even when the postings made him feel guilty he didn't shut down the site. "I get paid money to throw parties and I get paid money to sit in front of my computer and look at all of my peers naked," he explained to On The Media's Bob Garfield. "It's just too much fun." Moore chose now to stop because it stopped being "fun." "I am burned out," he writes.
