Walter Bislin made an interactive JavaScript model showing that the flat earth requires light to bend in impossible ways.

Shane St. Pierre subsequently stole this model, tried to remove references to the source (except a derogatory footnote hidden at the bottom), and claimed it not only as his own work but as a flat earth proof instead of a debunk. His stolen version can be found here.

This has been used by innumerable flerfs now, with not one flerf ever calling out or correcting the dishonesty. They are still using it to this day (see below).
