This all feels to me like Microsoft is getting desperate - it's the usual experience when the money in a niche is drying up: aggressive upsell and every damn thing trying to squeeze another dime out of you.

Have their revenues been tanking?

The way to remove those things is to arrest the operators and demand they hand over access to the hosting, and shut it down and prosecute them.

There is an important difference, in approach if not in ultimate intent: the alt right tries to look suave, intellectual, and hipsterish. (This is also why "debate" is exactly the wrong way to approach them as it plays to their charade. Antifa is entirely correct to respond to them with suppressive violence.)
