Not to mention what was probably an expensive domain name.

It definitely seems shady to me.

I spent a lot of time making the exercises. Nothing shady :)

Sorry to cast doubt. I forget what it's like for people that don't do this professionally; I could have created all those assignments in 10 hours, tops because that's what I've done for a living for the past 19+ years.

Good luck.

Still not shady if it helps others to learn Python. I don't have an issue that someone gets money for providing tutorials online. And maybe there's a reason why he doesn't want to find his name on Google.

Whois protection makes sense anyway, the amount of spam you get after registering a website is incredible. IMHO it's worth spending $2/yr for that service.
