ebookstree(dot)net doesn't resolve, nor is there a whois record for that name. I tried ebooksfree(dot)net, which is run by a domain squatter and has nothing of value. Either one of us has the name wrong, or the domain has been summarily expunged. The latter would be good news.

Ah, that would do it. Hosted (and DNS) by CloudFlare based out of SF. Domain security on the registration, protected by an outfit in Florida. Both potentially initial targets for DMCA action.

Yeah, Tumblr is already all over researching them.
