PART I: THE ORIGINAL AUGUST RECORD
The preserved August 8 article, retained as a contemporaneous record of what was known and what Hostinger had said at that time.
Preserved as the contemporaneous record
The August 8 article remains substantially unchanged because it records what was known and what Hostinger had told the customer at that point in time. Later corrections belong in the later chronology rather than being used to silently rewrite the earlier publication.
UPDATE — SEPTEMBER 2026: Hostinger later corrected or withdrew key parts of the technical explanation documented below. The subsequent contradictions, Compliance review, complete later/current file submissions to CloudLinux, the September 10 recurrence and the September 15 preservation/source-custody/whitelist-review correspondence are documented in Parts II, III and IV.
