Re: debian.org/CD/vendors/ "Dominique E. Blake-Hofer" entry is now squatted adware; other vendors 404; some ship buster or stretch
Hello наб, thanks for your report.
I've acted partially on it and leave the rest to the CD Vendors subteam
(cdvendors@debian.org, in CC) so they can contact the vendors or
procedure as they see appropiate. (I continue inline).

Hi!
On https://www.debian.org/CD/vendors/,
the swiss vendor "Dominique E. Blake-Hofer" links to
https://blake-hofer.net/?post_type=product
however https://www.blake-hofer.net/ appears to be a blank ad site
"Made in RapidWeaver" with lorem ipsum articles.
By bisecting http://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/blake-hofer.net,
I found that this has been the state of affairs at /least/ since
October 28, 2018 when the title changes from "IT Dientsleistungen,
Wordpress Projekte, Webhosting" to "Meditation & Yoga Studio"
(and redirects).
I have hidden this vendor, the change will be online in the next hours.
In an unrelated vein, a significant proportion of the vendors I
clicked through on the site offer CDs up to buster at most:
Linux2u buster
PM Consultores Ltda i think stretch, but on loading it again to
re-check the website broke
Toko Baliwae - Tokonya Maniak Linux buster
Dr. Hinner EDV buster for french and english customers, but
bookworm for germans
Debianland.de buster
Stormfront Ventures buster
lavorato IT stretch!
(I didn't include the ones that offer up to bullseye or ones that don't
say what version is offered in this list).
I leave this to the CD Vendors subteam.
Additionally:
De Linuxspecialist 403s.
I have update the links with their https version, the change will be
online in the next hours.
Onyx Dragon 404s.
vianos webdesign errored and gave me
Firefox Developer Edition does not trust this site because it uses a
certificate that is not valid for www.vianos.de. The certificate is
only valid for the following names: *.kasserver.com, kasserver.com
Linux-Onlineshop redirects to https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/ and
searching "debian" there gave me nothing. Can't decide if this is
just adware.
Hudson Oliveira redirected me to https://corsario.webs.com/,
half the site didn't load, and there's a "Create a Free Website"
thing injected in the bottom left corner for webs.com;
I'd maybe ask Hudson if that site is still accurate.
I leave these to the CD Vendors subteam.
Kind regards,
