Plus the downfall of the lemmy.fmhy.ml server, which had a pretty big and active piracy community too.
What happened to them?
govt of mali let use freenom .ml domains, then freenom removed them for reasons, one of reasons being that it got traction. (?) they have moved since to fmhy.net
Oh yes, I have heard a lot of cases like this related to freenom. They deactivate domains that get traction and resell them at a premium (mostly to spammy ad networks that hoard domains).
