Companies that were fucked, as their name documents.

Got their start in the heyday of the .com crash as domino after domino fell and many companies were exposed for the unviable company’s they were.

The site took great joy in documenting (mocking) companies that were once tall and proud and quickly collapsed.

I always wondered if fuckedcompany.com had back-door access to the Internet Confessional database.

I think they just allowed anonymous posts. Different era where they were actually sort of reliable. I think they got sued a lot which forced them to shut down. In the end Fucked Company was fucked, too.
