Too much misinformation, christ. After checking another thread, it appears the browser contains a softcore furry image, and the alleged CP is the anti-circumcision propaganda images the guy hosts on his public github.io page.<p>Furry easter egg removal commit is here:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Alex313031&#x2F;thorium&#x2F;commit&#x2F;9947421f1480bd1a59b7f79d7a136cce01b3ffc9#diff-d7f27e9b3fe5f52dd815774bd23044a12ef1b241e16e90f11461bd5394f031f6">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Alex313031&#x2F;thorium&#x2F;commit&#x2F;9947421f1480bd1...</a><p>And these are the alleged edits on the github.io page:<p>&gt; the site for thorium at one point had a documentary about circumcision on it, alongside furry porn and other weird political stuff, when he was called out on it, it magically disappeared.<p>&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Alex313031&#x2F;Alex313031.github.io&#x2F;commit&#x2F;e4ebdf488f71ceed8c89d352e75d307009c79bdb">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Alex313031&#x2F;Alex313031.github.io&#x2F;commit&#x2F;e4...</a><p>&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Alex313031&#x2F;Alex313031.github.io&#x2F;commit&#x2F;5c5e887a83cee0befc62ec497af290dbdb7b43e8">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Alex313031&#x2F;Alex313031.github.io&#x2F;commit&#x2F;5c...</a>
