So I guess their training set wasn’t backed up? Otherwise they still own the domain and just set up shop somewhere a little sketchier.

Storage is pretty cheap these days but I don’t know how big video generators can be.

The 404 Media article is much better (than a screenshot...) https://www.404media.co/mr-deepfakes-the-biggest-deepfake-porn-site-on-the-internet-says-its-shutting-down-for-good/

it was a tube site with UGC. So more likely they lost user/account data (hopefully to sources that will leak that shit) and don't want to try to start from zero in the modern hellscape where there is no reason to use them over any other non-consensual porn site.
