Lest anyone be confused, this is Epik the web hosting company[1], not Epic Games the videogame company[2], or Epic Systems the healthcare software company[3].

Nor is it Epic! the digital reading platform for kids[1], not EPIC the Electronic Privacy Information Center[2], or EPIC Provisions the company behind high protein meat snacks[3].

> Epik was founded in 2009 by Rob Monster

The founder's name is like from The Onion article.

While I wasn't going to get it confused with any other Epics, I had no idea what Epik with a K was.

Only two left to go?

The whole site looks like it's parody information ("epic" with a K, "Rob Monster", nazi stuff, etc) but it becomes weirder when you realize they aren't parodying anything and all of it is accurate.

Neither is it Epyx, Inc., the venerable videogame company [1].

Very interesting that Anonymous went after them. I guess it just goes to show you that Anonymous is nobody's puppet, however much any given cause would like to consider them its personal army.

Apparently NOT Epik's personal army: far from it.

Epyx published Jumpman on the Commodore 64. Loved that game.

I had thought that was by Epic (Megagames back then). I was wrong. Maybe I got Jumpman mixed up with Jill of the Jungle.

>>Thorre+(OP)
Thanks, I thought it was Epic Systems and was worried about all the healthcare data flowing.

Wow, do you try to SQL inject every site linked from HN comments?
