You’re really pretty dense but I’ll try.

You’re in the wrong place. There. That’s it. We don’t know why someone  
put information on THEIR website.

Try figuring out who actually hosts it, and complain to them.

We can’t help you so please stop bothering us.

I would like then to know what is the appropriate address !? And I would  
like further to know why nginx is on the homepage of the website "  
empresacnpj " main to support and problems , and as webmaster. Site  
moreover, that contains my data without my permission .

xD Maxim.

I would have put ‘hopefully’ along with ‘surprisingly’ though… just to  
convince myself such dumbness is marginal.

To [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid), nginx version can already be removed with the  
help  
of the server\_tokens  
[http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx\_http\_core\_module.html#server\_tokens](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#server_tokens)  
directive.  
Why that is not the default brings back the eternal difficulties around  
changing defaults, compatbility and stability, debate I (re)initiated  
around some other ‘odd’ defaults.

## Anyway, we are drifting away from the original subject, which is… Oh yeah, stupidity. And next to his lawyer. (And huge font size.)

I once knew a guy who convinced someone they had hacked their site by  
making a DNS entry to 127.0.0.1. So when the guy tried to access the  
“other” site his passwords worked, all his files were there, it was even  
running the same software! He made changes on his site and they  
instantly  
appeared on the “other” site. He deleted files off the “other” site and  
they were removed from his site - obviously in retaliation!. So after an  
hour or so of trying to figure out how his server is being accessed the  
guy  
just goes completely ballistic and starts calling the police and then  
the  
FBI (this was in the US). The FBI did investigate and visited the  
prankster  
in person. He explained what loopback was and how the prank worked, and  
the  
FBI agents thought it was pretty funny - they do have a sense of humor  
after all.

Hi

I do not want to receive these emails . I received a lot of emails and  
none were really to me or to help me in what I said. So now I want to  
stop receiving these emails . I sent an email to " [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) " I  
sent my personal email , I use to serious things , I would like to know  
why the email is that web page !?  
[https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,267331,267333](https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,267331,267333) exposing my email and  
the material contained therein , the google search ! And I just looked  
for a " nginx " to get an error page of google searches, page which  
contained and still contains some personal documents. Look I’m trying to  
do the easy method , but I think I’ll have to get justice.

Rhetorical questions: Are you a troll? Or simply deeply troubled and  
paranoid?

Emails you send to a public mailing list are:

1. Sent to every subscriber (there is a link to unsubscribe at the  
bottom of every message:  
[mailman.nginx.org archive](http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx))
2. Archived in different ways (at the top of the previously linked  
page  
there are archives, [forum.nginx.org](http://forum.nginx.org) is another spot to find them,  
sorted  
as a forum)

None of us can help you with your original problem, since you simply are  
at  
the wrong place.

You chose to write to the user mailling list of the nginx technology,  
using  
an email address of your choice. No-one pumped you for any of this.

## ​Please, get justice (and bring me some, I am short on it).​
