Netflix's latest docuser꧂ies, The Most Hated Man on the Internet, has been released – and viewers have a lot to say about the m🦂an who branded himself as a "professional life ruiner." The three-part series introduces viewers to what feels like a bygone era of the Internet: the rise and fall of Twitter famous scene kid Hunter Moore's revenge porn website, IsAnyoneUP? 

From 2010-2012, Moore allowed anonymous users to post nude photos of their ex-partners with the intention of ruining their lives. Moore made sure to post their full name and other identifying inform♉ation, includi🧸ng links to their social media. Several underage girls were posted to the site as well, and Moore earned roughly $8k to $13k in monthly website revenue. 

It took the combined effort of Charlotte Laws, the mother of one of the victims, former Marine James McGibney, and the Internet's very own An𓂃onymous (a widespread group of hackers) to finally take Moore down. Many Netflix viewers of the doc were unaware of Moore and his revenge porn empire, and we gathered some of their reactions.

"Well I made the mistake of watching The Most Hated Man on the Internet before bed𝐆 and🍸 now I want to punch a wall," reporter tweeted.

"The scariest part of the⭕ most hated ma෴n on the internet wasn’t Hunter Moore in my opinion, it was the thousands and thousands of followers who have such a strong hatred for women they’ve never even met," one said.

"Hunter Moore (The Most Hated Man on the Internet guy) only getting jail time for🧜 hacking and not like🅘 inciting violence (rape, murder, stalking, etc) does not sit right in my spirit," said

"Some people are evil for real. And even if the website doesn't exist anymore, reven💞ge porn is still a thing and it's just disgusting?! How can you be this evil an🎃d proud of yourself for destroying lives ?!" a asked.

Some women reca꧅lled being a teenager on the internet during Hunter Moore's terrible reign, and being afraid they'd be posted to his site.

"I was a teen during the era of Is An𒀰yone Up? and it’s wild to me thinking back about how so many people thought that website was cool 𝓀and fun and normal. I remember being so scared I’d end up on it!" said one .

Ma▨ny praised Charlotte Laws, inclu🉐ding actor Rahul Kohli.

"I just𒉰 gotta say that mom is a BAD AS🃏S BITCH and straight up went to war for her daughter and every other person impacted. I stan," one said.

"So @CharlotteLaws you are truly incredible! Your da🦂ughter and dozens of other victims of Hunter Moore's are s⛄o lucky to have you in their corner. Your determination has gone on to help THOUSANDS of revenge porn victims. Laws now exist because of YOU!" said.

A few were disappointed that the doc didn't delve d🐻eeper in terms of talking about the culture around revenge porn, with others commenting that we, as a society, are in need of🌄 a reset.

"I'm wildly provoked by the fact that The Moওst Hated Man on the Internet doesn't deal with the actual and very viol🌄ent misogyny and sexism expressed, but some weird form of 'neutral' revenge porn, as if it just floats around out there on its own" commented .

"What really gets me isn't just this despicable human being, but his thousands of followers who thinks 🐟i♚t's OK to treat women like this. That's a whole cultural mindset that needs to be reset," said .

The Most Hated Man on the Internet is now streaming on Netflix. For more, check out our roundup of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best documentaries on Netflix.
