The KolymaNET Anti-Spam Database is used to <s>maintain a list of enemies of the State</s><ref>Entry #166 is labelled with ''enemy of the network''.</ref> gather information about abusive users on imageboards.

There is one entry in their database, labelled "soyjack.party" (sic).<ref>See entry #192. https://web.archive.org/web/20210705191316/https://spam.kolyma.org/spam.php</ref> According to the page (emphasis added):

<blockquote>To submit an IP adress to the database, please use the form below, select the category the IP belongs to, and then submit. '''The submission will have to be verified by an agent of the Kolyma Network''', and once they are verified they are cemented into the database.</blockquote>

The fact that a ''random IP address'' was verified can mean one of two things:

* The 'Party is already under Kolyma's control, and they can the IPs for each post.
* This is just a psy-op/troll submission by Kuz.

[[File:Kolyma conspiracy theory - Kuz's tripcode.png|thumb|Kuz's tripcode, as seen on his website.<ref>https://archive.is/eNwrh</ref>]]

The second possibility is more credible, because a few posts later in the thread, Kuz used his tripcode to prove his identity, and stated that he's serious about buying Soyjak.party.

{{Quote|>B-but that doesn't look like a secure tripcode, and besides, doesn't each imageboard have its own secret, so that the same password on two different boards will generate two different tripcodes?}}

Being in denial has never helped anyone. Take your meds and face the truth.

'''Kuz's tripcode was leaked on July 9, 2021. It's #kuz4'''<ref>{{CitePost

Another suspicious clue is how the e-mail service for <code>admin@Soyjak.party</code> is Yandex Mail,<ref>{{CitePost|board=soy|no=129170|caption=>yandex / U-um bros......|date=July 5, 2021|url=https://archive.today/9SgFA}}</ref> a Russian company known to collaborate with the Russian government.<ref>{{CitePost|board=soy|no=129172|caption=Ummm SOOOOOOOOOOOT why would a non-Russian deal with a Russian corporation that sends data to the KGB????????|date=July 5, 2021|url=https://archive.today/9SgFA}}</ref>

Soot addressed that accusation as such:

<blockquote>
I've used it pretty much since the start of this site? I don't think email as a whole is secure at all, so I don't really care about using Yandex. I just use it since it's free. If you wanna give me 5 bucks for a year I'll host it elsewhere, but otherwise Yandex is free and good enough considering I don't use the email for anything very important like sensitive info.<ref>{{CitePost|board=soy|no=129238|caption=I've used it pretty much since the start of this site?|date=July 5, 2021|url=https://archive.today/9SgFA}}</ref>
