Today’s hook turn in the ongoing lolshow that is Tattlegate are accusations that Neil or Donna Sands or possibly both created accounts on Reddit to pinch drop clues to the identity of Tattle’s owner – information that at the time was supposedly still blocked from publication by the courts. A user called ‘MeanHope227’ spent like a year posting about the owner calling them ‘SB’, saying they were ‘in Asia’, and smugging about how the end of Tattle is ‘guaranteed’.

But is it really someone associated with the Sands? A poorly concealed social media share seems to imply so.
