Kind of hard to watch his videos after reading the sexual abuse allegations against him. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

what in the fuck?
Well that's just depressing. There's a lot there and it all lines up far too well to just be a bog standard Internet smear job.
I occasionally run into his videos and they seem alright. But this adds a layer of "what the fuck" to the whole thing now. And he just seems generally unstable (which probably explains how he comes up with some of this shit lmao).
Aging was
oh or rape, we can talk about, I guess
Can anyone find any other sources for this, other than the ones provided in the article?
Near the top of the article, they mention the Dutch police looking for exurb1a, apparently multiple times.
But I have now done several Google searches of different ways to phrase that, and I literally cannot find a single source about it that isn't PhotoAndGrime (this website), Pieke Roelofs (this author), or someone whose only sources cite directly back to either.
I'm not saying it's not true. Just that I can't find any external sources backing it up.
That's entirely fair, and I regret having not included such a disclaimer. I'll readily admit that most of the evidence she showed was quite compelling to me, (but perhaps without much merit) perhaps I reacted too rashly by sharing that link with a disclaimer. I'll edit it now.
Don't feel bad about it! Being skeptical and claims and performing lateral reading is an acquired skill, and not one I expect everyone to have.
I did a little bit more digging around, and the reason why PhotoAndGrime and Pieke Roelofs are so tightly interlinked is being PhotoAndGrime is her blog. From the about page:
Originally in 2012, I (Pieke Roelofs) began PhotoandGrime as a platform to collaborate with other creators. It started with photoshoots, tutorials, short videos and experiments, leading to editorials and publications.
Since 2017, PhotoandGrime took a sharp turn.
After my work was stolen by an international artist and soon after I collaborated with another creator and was assaulted, raped, blackmailed and threatened as a result of that collaboration, I started writing about abuse of power, sexual/online violence, mental health and the road to justice.
Combine that with the several articles she's written about exurb1a (and their less-than-unbiased tone), and her decidedly aggressive disclaimer at the bottom of the site:
By using this website, you agree to our Moral Code and Cookie policy. If you enjoy doxxing rape victims and sending death threats anonymously but don’t like police reports against you, go cry on Reddit about it - some pedophiles who were caught with cp, already are.
And I don't want to pass any judgment about whether or not she is being truthful, but it seems clear to me that she is a very angry woman and she has a very large axe to grind with exurb1a.
Given how deeply personal she takes the issue, I would hesitate to consider her a trustworthy source on the matter. Even if everything she says happened, the way she says it all is very loaded and aggressive. Everyone would be better off finding more neutral and objective third parties to corroborate her claims - and I can't seem to find any of those.
I read the a lot of it last night and all of it is bullshit and even accuses them/him of child porn using some hoge site called iknowyourdownloads or some shit, when we all know that's entirely inaccurate to claim as its just linked to ip and ip's change when providers switch customers, also vpns exist, and then also saying how her site analytics show some how "creepy" it was some guys were on here page for a long time, when her article literally takes like an hour or two to read in full and look into.
