Suspected sockpuppets

Jkxyz is a user involved with COI editing at Spartan Race, possibly a former officer of the company and possibly involved in legal action unrelated (as yet) to Wikipedia. They have a long history of trying to use legal threats to get their way, but managed to escape being blocked for more than two years before I blocked them in August this year. They were known to edit while logged out long before this block (they were first warned about this in December 2015). On the same day that they were blocked, was created and made only one edit: repeating Jkxyz's arguments and list of unreliable sources, and attacking the same users with the same language. They were blocked as an obvious sock.

There is a discussion at ANI regarding this behaviour, but I'm starting this case to document the ongoing abuse of multiple accounts and IPs. I originally opened this with a CU request but that is not necessary. Note that Jkxyz is also known to abuse open proxies. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 17:01, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
