One of those two sites is distributing adware. Which of them?
File Converter (FOSS) by Adrien Allard was hosted on file-converter[.]org since a decade. Then someone a few weeks ago snatched that domain and it’s now distributing adware. Almost identical design for the page, 100% designed to deceive users to download a different product, as it’s called Zamzar.
If you contact the .org registry they’ll take it down. .org is for non-profits
Is that really an enforced rule somewhere, or just one of those loose intentions from the early days of domain names?
If it is, it’s news to me. I co-owned an education data consultancy (before realizing there was no money in education) that used a .org; we were for-profit.
Sounds like you unintentionally fit the brief anyway.
The people who maintain .org enforce it
TIL
Then they can just buy another domain under .Dev or .app
It’s like playing whack a mole
If it used to be a valid website, and is now a scam, that’s a mole worth whacking - even if they’ll try again with a previously unknown url
