Title: Krakenimages smells like Yuri Arcurs thing ... anyone knows ?
Post by: zorba on April 01, 2020, 15:45
krakenimages.com/ (http://krakenimages.com/) seems like a hypersimplified version of a sub-selection of something that smells like Yuri Arcurs peopleimages.com
But I'm not a detective, so I'm not very skilled in digging into this kind of hidden information.

Does anyone else know something about?

I say this because there are some of the most emerging claims about him, like the transparent background PNG versions of people, and the "soul" of this marketing operation, that I saw through instagram and seems to be a selection of what he could consider "b-quality" to cash in on anyway.
