    No… I took down content from a previous owner. So you can absolutely buy an old domain and demand to take down old content.

    I just pulled up the email. The only evidence I gave them is that I emailed them from the “contact webmaster” email address that was posted on the main site page (admin@domain.com).

    They removed everything from their archive completely relating to both domains I was inquiring about. One being originally my fathers and that was transferred to me completely.

      That’s a bummer. Nissan can then buy nissan.com when it’s expired (the owner died recently) and erase the old posts from the previous domain owner detailing their legal battle with Nissan for example.

        This already happened but it wasn’t the automotive company that took it down, if you look at the page now it’s an advertisement for some “AI-driven” advertising thing
