3 piece(s) of evidence not counted — why
  • A8: this site does not link back to the GitHub organization; no reverse confirmation
  • A3: registrar (Japan Registry Services Co., Ltd.) is not a brand-protection registrar
  • A4: DV certificate carries no organization name (most modern tech companies use DV; this is expected)
