How it is built, by role
The same roles apply across the whole collection. Nothing in this block is specific to this site; what the site says about itself is quoted word for word below it.
- 1
Edge network
Visitors reach a site through an edge layer: a content delivery network with a web application firewall in front of it.
- 2
Application host
The edge talks to an application host that serves the site and renders its pages.
- 3
Data
What the pages show comes from a relational database or, for a site pre-rendered at build time, from data files built into its release.
- 4
Scheduled measurement
The collection measures its sites on a schedule: content dates and site health nightly, page counts read from each site’s sitemap weekly. Every reading is kept with its date. A site too large to re-walk is not re-measured, and shows no trend.
- 5
Public status feed
A monitoring panel sends a signed report on uptime, deploys and backups once a day, and the Operations page publishes it. A figure on this page that comes from that report says so.
In the site's own words
Each passage is copied unaltered from a page the site publishes, with the address it was taken from and the date we took it. We add nothing between them.
“The Cult-Like Control Index (CLCI) is a transparent 0–40 scoring system designed to evaluate any religious, spiritual, wellness, or ideological group on the spectrum from low-control / mainstream to destructive / extreme.”
“The CLCI is grounded in Steven Hassan's BITE model — Behavior, Information, Thought, and Emotional control — first published in his 1988 book Combatting Cult Mind Control and refined since. We score each of the four BITE categories from 0 to 10, then add signed modifiers (-5 to +5) for factors not captured cleanly inside BITE.”
“Every group is rated with a Confidence: High (court records, peer-reviewed academic work, multiple corroborating BITE assessments), Medium (reputable journalism + ex-member testimony but limited academic study), or Low (mostly anecdotal, fragmented documentation).”
“Public sources only. No private gossip, no anonymous accusations without corroboration.”
“Every score breaks down into Behavior, Information, Thought, and Emotional sub-scores plus signed modifiers — no hidden weights.”
“Modifiers can be negative too — a group with strong leadership accountability, low exit costs, and informed-consent practices earns a credit.”
“Because each BITE axis maxes at 10 and the modifier range is small (±5), groups with very different real-world harm profiles can score similarly at the top of the scale.”
“Updateable. Groups change. Scores change. We document the date and source for every revision.”
