I generally avoid clicking on links to unknown websites in discussion forums.

Too risky.

There's a reason they call me Profe "danger" Luke, I ain't afraid to click no link!

Unsurprisingly, it is exactly as described - a very nicely formatted version of the original white paper.

I also generally avoid taking advice from someone who is using a brand new account on the forum.

Too risky.

I am a developer who installs programs almost daily. Damn dangerous. I advise you to not install anything that was created after 2008. Do I follow this advice? No. How could I?

Please be paranoid but not in the sense of not clicking links here on the forum, spreading fud about good work others did here but by separating your wallet from all this scary stuff that might compromise your private keys. A website is mildly dangerous, sure, but 95% of the users here do click on them anyway as is the case with the malware spreading listen to bitcoin site.

Edit: I'm not vouching for OP's website and yes, I would trust it more if it was a github/bitbucket site where I see if it was changed after gaining popularity. Still I visited it and it contains the whitepaper as advertised along with a bunch of Javascript that I assume is not malicious. The donation button links to coinbase and the coinbase calls the recipient "Treasurer". If it was clear that this is the donation link of http://nakamotoinstitute.org I would see some extra vetting in this but as is, coinbase doesn't add to credibility.

Saw this on reddit yesterday or so. It's a very simple idea, making a clean HTML version that is. I still haven't actually given the paper a thorough read.

The product of this paper has been used in the most obvious manner for quite some time now, unlike a lot of other papers which find their way into our lives in the least obvious of ways.
