Here's what's been going on behind the scenes at Radiopaedia ... [View this email in your browser]( It's (not) a bug's life Usually, we start the newsletter with exciting news about new features or upcoming events. Instead, this month, we thought we’d give you a glimpse into the dark underbelly of running a popular website. Early in the year, we became aware that spammers had managed to circumvent our safety measures and were creating thousands upon thousands of user accounts with links to unregulated online pharmacies. We dropped everything else and started quickly (perhaps too quickly) dealing with these accounts and fortifying our anti-spam strategy. And so began a little near-death spiral. The more we tried to fix things, the more bugs we introduced and discovered, and the jankier the site became. Many of you know the rest: we had to temporarily disable DICOM uploads and image cropping. Jump forward to now: we're (mostly) back to normal with some improvements thrown in for good measure. A huge shoutout goes to our brilliant team of developers. They have worked tirelessly through this mini-crisis and are now looking forward to the next features. To have a front seat to these crises,or to just stay up to date, drop into our community chat.
