Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Uniswap's anti-phishing partner Bolster Inc. sent a takedown notice to our hosting provider, for hosting a legitimate fork of the GPL-licensed Uniswap Interface.

They're falsely claiming that we're a crypto phishing scam operation, and included non-existent links to support their claims, like /wfargo/wellsrgo/virus.txt (which doesn't work), clearly trying to give the impression that we're hosting financial scams, demanding the provider immediately take down our server.

These fake "virus" links obviously just redirect back to the interface's main swap page, since that's what Uniswap coded the interface to do with 404 links.

Bolster's takedown request, sent to our provider:

UPDATE:

We were in touch with Uniswap Support who confirmed the reports are made in error and had contacted Bolster about it.

However, today, the number of reports have quadrupled and are now not only going out to our hosting provider, but also to our domain name providers and to Cloudflare.

Uniswap has informed Bolster that the claim was made in error.

Edit: nevermind, it continues

Ticket reopened. Bolster is now sending an endless stream of reports saying we are holding fraudulent activities to our:

I have to waste lots of time just to explain to all these parties (3 times per day, since each party receives 3 reports seemingly daily) that the Uniswap interface is open-source and that we are not doing any phishing activities.
