Reuse and method
Free to use with credit. Please credit Brand Protection Tools and link to https://brandprotectiontools.com/data/takedown-routes. We only list a route after opening it ourselves; routes that block automated checks stay marked "not yet confirmed" until someone opens them in a real browser. For independent websites the answer is always the host, never the domain registrar. Found a route that has moved? Tell us.
