Psiram.com (until July 2012: Esowatch) is an Internet project founded in 2007 with articles critical of esotericism, conspiracy theories and pseudoscience in alternative medicine. The platform offers a wiki, a blog and a forum. The Psiram wiki is based on MediaWiki software. In September 2013, the German wiki was the largest with articles; the French second with 256 articles and the English third with 95 articles. Anonymity All authors use anonymous nicknames, and the site's owner is unknown. The domain is registered via a company in Hong Kong. The anonymity is explained as due to negative experiences by identifiable critics of New Age beliefs. New authors can register after a check on their abilities. Psiram's article on Prahlad Jani was referenced in the science blog Pharyngula, and their article on night milk crystals was referenced by the Guardian. A German court based a decision partly on arguments collected by Esowatch. Further, data from Esowatch was used in an inquiry in the Austrian parliament. |
