I don’t like this phrasing because it sounds like you only care because it’s on the front page of HN and it’s a bad look — “because [your] reputation is at stake”.

You should care because paying someone to disrupt totally innocent open source projects is a shitty thing to do. Filing false DMCA requests on your behalf is also illegal. I like to think that if this never got any attention and your reputation wasn’t at stake, you’d still be adamant about doing the right thing. “Perhaps even consider switching“ providers doesn’t reflect the urgency in getting this right.

Here's what we are doing: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31092085 You are right. HN thread triggered this. And we are working on fixing this at the core.

Better be true this time, because you have been forgiven before, haven't you?

Great response, credit where credit’s due.
