This behavior is very concerning, especially since it's not a one-off, their other replies on that account aren't much better.

I know I’m late to the parrrty here, but for dumm-dumms like me, anybody care to explain what the cause behind this was?

From what I can tell Real Debrid was based out of France… but what made them change their tune all of a sudden? Did the owners get threatened similar to what people think happened to the guy running rarbg?

Or did France just suddenly start enforcing copyrights or something? If so, then does that mean any other things non-debrid related that are based out of France are likely to run into issues too? Like, I know some open-source stuff also uses (or at least used?) France as a soemthing of a copyright-haven so that they could basically host patented media codecs etc in a separate repo (I think Fedora nd OpenSuse both have unofficial repos that do that). Wondering if that kinda thing would also be affected too or just the *debrid stuff?
