==Hoax websites==
More recently, she's apparently taken to creating hoax websites such as '''IQfy''',<ref name="Wonkette2022IQfy">Robyn Pennacchia (June 6, 2022). [https://www.wonkette.com/p/jamey-braunstein-iqfy "Fake 'Woke' Site Dupes Conservatives Desperate To Prove The Left Has Lost It"]. ''Wonkette''.</ref><ref>(January 27, 2023). [https://factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com.337W9TW "Fake screenshot attributes article on vaccine risks to UK professor"]. ''Agence France-Presse''.</ref> and '''AFRU''' (claims to be "Black-led and Black-owned", which is doubtful to say the least).<ref>[http://archive.today/2023.12.27-143148/https://afru.com/early-signs-of-radicalization-extremism/ "Is your child becoming far-right? 11 early radicalization signs"]. Afru, via archive.today. This article was formerly hosted by IQfy, and now redirects to the version hosted on Afru — the archive.today capture notes this.</ref> The sites generate headlines advocating totally super real "[[social justice]] causes" like: ''"Encourage women to smell their poop to be more inclusive to [[Trans women]]"'',<ref name="Wonkette2022IQfy"/> and ''"Why is this a thing? 10 statues that white people just can't stop sexually harassing"''.<ref>[http://archive.today/2023.12.19-190944/https://afru.com/groping-statues-photos/ "Why is this a thing? 10 statues that white people just can’t stop sexually harassing"]. Afru, via archive.today.</ref> In turn, her ideological colleagues at ''A Voice for Men'' and elsewhere [[Manufactroversy|feign outrage]].<ref name="Wonkette2022IQfy"/> If you can't counter real arguments made by social justice movements, why not ''[[Straw man|just make shit up]]'' instead, after all? And it's well in line with her above-mentioned activity during Gamergate — nothing new under the... [[Sonnenrad|sun]].

In the case of IQfy, at least some of the site's less objectionable content appears to be [[Plagiarism|plagiarized]] from other sources. For example: the article "How people used to download games from the radio in the 80s" on IQfy (credited to "Anonymous"),<ref>[http://archive.today/2023.12.29-070628/https://iqfy.com/how-people-used-to-download-games-from-the-radio/ "How people used to download games from the radio in the 80s"]. IQfy, via archive.today.</ref> seems to be almost completely identical to a 2014 article that was once published by ''Kotaku'' and attributed to Lewis Packwood.<ref>Lewis Packwood (October 13, 2014). [https://web.archive.org/web/20150123135729/www.kotaku.co.uk/2014/10/13/people-used-download-games-radio "How People Used to Download Games From the Radio"]. ''Kotaku'', via the Wayback Machine.</ref>

Other domains known to be linked to Bloomfield include ''Femoid.com'' ("femoid" being a dehumanizing [[Manosphere glossary|incel term]] for a woman), ''judgybitch.com'', and ''[[lulz]].com''; these have previously hosted articles similar to those found on IQfy and Afru.<ref name="Wonkette2022IQfy"/>
