- icebraining 7y agoThe Foundation didn't seize the domain, it just suggested to the NIXI that they should do so.

- FDSGSG 7y agoYou'd be in luck, the Shadowserver Foundation is essentially a proxy for the FBI. They control various seized assets seemingly unrelated to their publicly stated mission, like libertyreserve.com. Shadowserver used to host the seizure page for liberty reserve too.
