There are a lot of websites positioning themselves as official ones, such as https://arnis.cc/ or https://arnis.app/
One of them is even the first search result on Yandex. However, the github page is not there at all

Both sites have links to github

Hi there!
Thanks for pointing that out - all websites pretending to be associated with Arnis are fake. This Github page is the only official page. I don't know what software they are distributing, but please avoid them.
Regarding the top search results - to be honest I don't know how to fix that. Maybe it would help if we all report the fake sites?

Thanks a lot for letting me know! If anyone has any idea, let me know.

With a license switch in #230 (comment) I attempt to take a first step against such fake websites. Additionally I already contacted each of them with a cease and desist request.

I have now issues a DMCA Takedown for two fake websites. Let's see what happens! :)
