In case anyone missed it, I found this comment interesting (from the blog, not Lemmy):

Brian you can also find this Finn Grimpe character has a court case under his company ‘HostPlanet’ from 2016. Looking into this more, it was known since then that he was the owner.

He was likely turned and made it into a honeypot ever since considering he and florian (aka “Jason”) have not been arrested and only a single admin was.

Yeah that happens when you break laws. You get exposed, and rightly so. Fuck these guys and their active profiteering from exploiting other people.
