Post by David LaRuePerhaps someone, maybe you, could look up the DNIS Records for the AIOE
site. In those records should be a trusted party, usully the site owner or
a lawyer, or someone who can get ahold of the owner. From there you should
be able to reach out to Paulo or someone that knows what happened to Paulo.
We're all interested in hearing what happened and if he needs help.
You're probably thinking of WHOIS. Unfortunately, the whois record for
AIOE.ORG is privacy protected, so it mostly says "REDACTED FOR PRIVACY"
except for name, country, and state/province.
The whois record does, however, say "Admin Email: Please query the RDDS
service of the Registrar of Record identified in this output for
information on how to contact the Registrant, Admin, or Tech contact of
the queried domain name." The registrar is tucows.com, although
the Registrar URL is listed as http://tucowsdomains.com/ . The DNS
service is listed as having been sold via aruba.it.
The WHOIS record also has this interesting line:
Registrant Email: https://tieredaccess.com/contact/977cdde1-f485-4d47-b6ad-30aab68414c3
which I haven't tried.
