Podblanc was a white supremacist[2] video sharing website. Founder Craig Cobb designed it as an alternative to YouTube, which Cobb calls "Jew Tube" due to its policy of banning racist and anti-Semitic content.[2]
Content
Cobb made a video tribute to Benjamin Nathaniel Smith, a spree killer whom he considers a hero.[2]
Keith Luke
Keith Luke, of Brockton, Massachusetts, was a Podblanc user who, on January 21, 2009, at the age of 22, allegedly shot to death two Cape Verdean immigrants and attempted to murder a third, whom he also raped, and which she herself eventually recovered.[3] He had planned to "kill as many nonwhites as possible" and finish off the killing spree at a synagogue's bingo night.
Closing
Podblanc was closed in June 2010 after its servers were shut down.
