Extortr: Finally, Web 2.0 Technology You Can Actually Use

11:30 AM Jun 19, 2006

Via Mashable:  "the 'most technologically advanced extortion service in the world'. Simply upload a scandalous photo or video, set a price and use Extortr to send an anonymous threat by email. If your victim doesn't pay, the upload goes public. The service takes a 10% cut of all transactions, with a $5 minimum."

From the FAQ: 

Is this legal?

Extortr is hosted in Kgryjstan, where enterprising, forward-thrusting Web 2.0 businesses such as ours are welcomed with open arms.

(Yes, it's a joke.)
