Yesterday I send out a phishing report for a website using Hostinger services.

This morning I woke up with an e-mail informing me that the phishing site had been suspended. At the exact same time I received 2 e-mails informing me that my hosting plan had been suspended for "abuse".

I sincerely hope this was a mistake and #hostinger fixes this soon.

In the meantime my websites won't be accesible and e-mails to @jeroengui.be won't reach me.

And I understand that content moderation can be difficult, but what I don't get is that a profile that spams these kinds of posts, every day with fresh phishing links, gets through any kind of review.

Facebook using the COVID-19 pandemic as an excuse to not take proper action on reports of malicious content on their platform in 2024 is just unbelievable.

Of course with varying rates of success…
Is it that difficult to notice pattern?
This exact type of scam has been going on since 2016. You would think that they have figured out a way to detect these kinds of things...

Dhl phishing page, with content locked to specific devices and or IP’s that I can’t wrap my head around.

When the phishing page is not shown it redirects to a google search of some non family friendly words. 🙃

Same site, almost all of them also behind a Cloudflare proxy.

Please give me the report info (url and/or domain and comments) when you send out a reply like this.

I send out multiple reports per day to you and it is literally impossible to keep track of the case numbers, because you don't provide any info about the case in the original report confirmation e-mail either.

This is a good example of how abuse reports should be handled. Bit.ly has become one of the companies with the fastest response times to these reports.

My last three reports were all handled and taken down within 10 minutes, preventing thousands of people from reaching malicious sites. Only an api or e-mail option, to automate abuse reports, would make this better.

Thanks for the massive improvement in transparency and response time from the previous google forms method of reporting abuse. Keep up the good work!

Another case of TikTok violatig my rights when it comes to privacy.🕵️​

Last summer I contacted TikTok to remove all of my personal data (2 of my old accounts).

After verifying that I was the account holder (i lost access to both), they sent me a message, on the 26th of August, confirming that all my data would be deleted within 30 days.

Here we are, December 24th. The accounts are still on their site. As far as I can see, no action has been taken.

It's time we hold companies accountable for violation of important privacy and safety regulations. 🔒​
