Squarespace sells itself as the slick, no-code website builder for artists, entrepreneurs, and small businesses. But right now it is hosting something far darker: Charliesmurderers.com, a site built to gather names, employers, and locations of Americans accused of “supporting political violence.” At its core, it is a doxxing and harassment operation dressed up in Squarespace’s polished packaging, and is itself supporting political violence.
The site claims it will run “the largest firing operation in history,” calling on users to submit personal details of political opponents to feed a searchable database. It is hard to imagine a clearer violation of Squarespace’s own rules, which explicitly forbid harassment, privacy violations, and defamatory content. Despite this, the site remains live and protected by the same infrastructure used by countless small businesses and community groups.
The domain was registered on September 10, 2025, through Namecheap, with the real owner hidden behind a privacy service in Iceland. That makes a paper trail difficult to follow. What is clear is the hosting, Squarespace, a household-name company presenting itself as a safe home for creativity and commerce.
Squarespace’s acceptable use policy prohibits using its services to intimidate or harass, and it requires users to respect privacy laws. Publishing names and workplaces of ordinary citizens in order to incite retaliation is the textbook definition of harassment. Framing their comments online as evidence of “murder” or violent intent pushes into outright defamation.
The style and tactics of charliesmurderers.com are not appearing in a vacuum. Scott Presler, a far-right activist with a record of hard-edged political organizing, has already been running similar campaigns on his public social media accounts. On Threads, Presler has posted the names of private individuals alongside their jobs and locations, questioning whether parents should accept a Wisconsin teacher’s presence in their schools after he commented on Charlie Kirk’s assassination. In another post, he singled out a small business owner in Rochester, New York, highlighting the man’s criticism of Kirk and remarking that his business “doesn’t have any reviews yet” before adding, “It would be a shame… (peacefully).”
The overlap between these posts and the rhetoric of charliesmurderers.com is impossible to ignore. Both name people, tie them to their employers, and encourage consequences. Even if there is no smoking-gun link between Presler and the domain registration, the resemblance suggests the site is an extension of the campaign he is already leading in the open, however, we cannot say for certain that the right-wing influencer is behind the website, despite his taking part in the same activity elsewhere.
Squarespace is not a bystander here. By providing the hosting, tools, and storefront for this project, it is enabling a coordinated campaign of harassment. The test now is whether the company will enforce its own rules. If it acts quickly, it can prove its acceptable use policy is more than a public relations shield. If it looks away, it will confirm that one of America’s most prominent website builders is willing to profit from a project that endangers ordinary people.
