The Shockwave has rules. By accessing our 8 streams of anomalies and tactical gear, you are agreeing to the following protocols.
IGNORANCE IS NOT AN EXCUSE.
To ensure operational clarity within the Shockwave, the following definitions apply to these ShockPlanet Terms of Use:
The 8 Streams: Refers to our primary intelligence sectors: Conspiracies, Hidden History, Survival Hacks, Paranormal Encounters, Strange True Stories, Lost Technology, WTF Facts and Gear Reviews.
The Gear Depot: Our centralized hub for tactical gear reviews and affiliate-sourced hardware.
The Shockwave: Our collective community of users, researchers, and field-testers accessing this data.
Verified Intel: Content curated and vetted for the Archive, intended for informational and conversation-ruining purposes.
By entering ShockPlanet, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use and all applicable laws. If you do not agree with any part of these protocols, you are prohibited from accessing the 8 streams of content and the ShockPlanet shop.
Everything you see here—the WTF Facts, the Hidden History archives, and our custom gear designs—is the property of ShockPlanet. You may share our facts to ruin conversations (that’s the point), but you may not scrape, replicate, or sell our content without express written authorization. All site assets are protected under standard Intellectual Property laws and digital content protocols.
You agree to use this site only for lawful purposes. We investigate the strange; we do not tolerate the toxic. Any attempt to disrupt the site, inject malicious code, or harass the community will result in a permanent ban from the Shockwave.
ShockPlanet provides “Strange True Stories” and “Survival Hacks” for entertainment and informational purposes. We are not responsible for what happens if you actually try to use a survival hack in the wild or if a “WTF Fact” ruins your social standing. Use the knowledge at your own risk.
We often link to the deep corners of the web to verify our facts. We do not control these external sites and are not responsible for their content or “hidden history.”
The protocols can change. We recommend checking this page periodically. Your continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
ShockPlanet is a participant in several tactical and educational affiliate programs. This means that certain links within our Gear Reviews and across the Shockwave—specifically those pointing to partners like Battlbox, SurvivalFrog, and OpticsPlanet—are affiliate links. If you click these links and make a purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. This funding allows us to continue vetting anomalies and sourcing high-grade intel for the community. We only review gear we find operationally relevant, but we encourage users to perform their own due diligence before deployment.
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate your access to the 8 streams of intel and the Shockwave community for any reason, including, without limitation, a breach of these Terms of Use. If your access is revoked, your right to use the site content and archives will cease immediately. Provisions regarding Intellectual Property, Limitation of Liability, and Indemnification shall survive any such termination.
If you have questions regarding these terms or the validity of a specific data stream, you may contact our operations team via the Contact Page. Legal inquiries should be clearly marked in the subject line to ensure proper routing through our secure channels.
Review our Privacy Policy to see how we protect your data within these protocols.
