Is iflscience.org Safe?

No offense, but you're either personally lazy or personally not very educated about computers. It only takes a minute give or take to scan a website for malware. I just did and here are the results. Absolutely zero malware. If you disagree then please provide some actual proof before accusing a website of hosting malware which is a very serious accusation. Virus Total Scan - ***** Outside of that, I am a big fan of this site. If you were born with a sense of humor and find good satire entertaining than this website is well worth checking out. I have been following them on FB for about 6 months and it has even kicked the Onion to the curb (its just gone downhill after being sold last month). I am not a fan of the "legit" IFLScience since they are basically a clickbait based pile of stolen content the exists with the sole purpose of allowing unintelligent simpiltons to have a false sence of intelligence. They have gotten in trouble in the past for stealing content from other websites, journalists and photographers without offering credit for those who did the actual work. ***** knows this and do a fantastic job of parodizing it. Well done IFLScience.org, keep up the great work! 100% Most Official and More Sciencey! troy preston

Unlike other raters, who think this is satire, I personally suspect it is loaded with malware. My browser 'blinks' when I go there. Considering it is trying very hard to look like IFLS (which has a huge following), I'm not charitable enough to only consider it a joke or spoof. I think it's naive at best to automatically attribute non-malicious intent.

I really enjoy this website. It's clearly satire, I am pretty sure anyone who would suggest otherwise is probably not that intelligent. Unlike the Onion or other satire style websites, this one takes aim at Science so I give it +10 points for originality. I however have noticed some adult language, and some more adult oriented topics, but overall nothing that Children wouldnt see on a day time television show, but I still took some points off for that.

Love this site. Entertainment and Science. Good for a read, great for a good laugh. Not really sure why a couple people are so outraged by an entertaining science website. For peats sake there are no violent images, sexual content or even a swear word for that matter. I guess people can get offended by anything these days...especially science.

It appears to be a really lame satire of "I fucking love Science", iflscience.com. It is just a straight rip-off of the ***** logo. As I write this the headlines on their homepage are such bizarre things as: Japan Engineers Design Robotic Bear to aid in Assisted Suicide Missing Scientist Found Hiding in Secret LSD Drug Lab High Level Scientists Caught In Fetus Eating Cult Snopes has also done several pages on false claims that they have made: ***** ***** *****
