Greetings,
I have been taking looks at https://fsfe.org/campaigns/pdfreaders/buglist.en.html, and I have discovered that quite a few URLs once reported as bugs do not resolve (404) any more, or do not contain any proprietary PDF reader advertisements. This seemed to be especially common for German institutions. If someone has time, please, take a look at the bug list, and either find a new URL containing a bug for such institutions, or being unable to do so, close the bug.
Faithfully,

Yes, that is because of the crappy CMS some of them use, where URLs change all the time.
What I am doing in such cases: search for "adobe" or "acrobat" on the domain of the reportet instition. If there is another advertisement I add the new URL. If it is fixed, I mark the bug as fixed.
