> But none of us know what was on that page
I mean... we do? It is described here; top post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42364033
To be clear, there is no issue with them making a DMCA takedown. This should be made to the operator (ie itch.io). They _did not do this_. Instead they complained to the registrar of phishing/fraud. Registrars, not unreasonably, take complaints of fraud seriously, and many will nuke first and answer questions later. However, clearly, no fraud was involved.
(I'm not sure if you're being wilfully obtuse, or if you suffer from the ol' Hackernews "reading the linked material is forbidden" problem, but I just don't see how you can defend the false complaint of fraud.)
No, we know what Itch say was on there.
You and I have know knowledge of what was actually on there. Neither of us have seen the complaint nor the page itself.
