Thunderclap was a platform that let individuals and companies rally people together to spread a message. The site used a model similar to crowdfunding sites such as Kickstarter, in that if the campaign did not meet its desired number of supporters in the given time frame, the organizer receives none of the donations. To each campaign there was assigned a url with a short version of Thunderclap domain name (thndr.me or thndr.it) and a unique random 6 alphanumeric path. This was referred to as "crowdspeaking", as Thunderclap and its rival site Daycause use the same terminology. Backers are required to copy the original message in tweets or social media posts. In August 2018, Facebook revoked Thunderclap's ability to post onto Facebook, making Thunderclap unsustainable to operate. Thunderclap announced that it would be shutting down in September 2018, along with Daycause. The closure came after Facebook changed its terms of service, blocking external apps from posting content.
