>>43896514The picture was originally posted by some anon, which was then archived by RebeccaBlackTech. Chris Pirillo (OP's pic) assumably noticed the leak, and complained about it to PayPal.
PayPal then proceeded to send a takedown notice to RebeccaBlackTech and Torqhost, without any realization that Torqhost does not host the content and that RebeccaBlackTech is not a forum. The targeted Torqhost server (
ygold.org) is an IPv4 reverse proxy to the real dedicated server hosted in Finland (Elisa is the ISP).
Regardless, RebeccaBlackTech archive's maintainer anounyym1 deleted the image that appears in
>>43896093. This was because of Torqhost's persistence to get the abuse complaint resolved and the linked URL to image removed.
PayPal has to actively send these takedown notices for their trademarked content if they wish to keep their trademark. It's something set in the law.
Regarding the donations in the reply, PayPal has blocked money flow to services like
pomf.se and Wikileaks in the past for controversial reasons.
Pomf.se's funds are still frozen at PayPal, and the only way to get them out would be a legal battle or inserting a backdoor to
Pomf.se for PayPal to review and moderate files. That's why the "piss off" messages, not to mention their takedown notices were a waste of my time to reply to.
