  Hi, I’ve discovered that a site built using wordpress (and possibly hosted by wordpress) is infringing my copyright. Here’s the website
  https://www.thepranitas.com/update/demystifying-astronomy
  Can you please help take this down. I’ve filed a dam request with the site, but have had no response.
  Thank you,
  Kevin Quinn

  Hi Kevin, it looks like this site uses the free WordPress software which comes from WordPress.org, but it isn’t hosted here with us at WordPress.com.

  Judging from the public WHOIS information for this domain, it looks like the domain is registered via this site: http://www.cosmotown.com

  It’s hard to know who the host is, but the public data indicates that the site is routed through Cloudflare.com – it might be worth checking if you can file a DMCA through Cloudflare!
