Addon warning unclear

Hi, an addon I was using was automatically disabled, with a banner containing the following text and a link to "see details": "This extension is restricted for violating Mozilla’s policies and has been disabled. You can enable it, but this may be risky."

This is vague and unhelpful, but maybe the "see details" link will provide more context.

If I click this link, I go to a new page which has the following: "This extension, theme, or plugin violates Mozilla's add-on policies. Version deleted"

This is even worse, as it's not clear what has happened, what I should do (if anything) and gives me no confidence in the process. Does "Version deleted" mean the developer deleted this, Mozilla deleted this, is it just this version or is it all versions? Why what it deleted, was there a security problem I should be concerned about, or does it no longer run on supported Firefox releases?

While I would be interested the reason for the specific addon, it seems to me there's a more important process and UX issue here.

Side note, there seems to be no topic for addons, which seems like an oversight.

I know this isn't exactly an answer but I've noticed it a couple times for copyright or trademark issues, and they never say why. Chrome extensions are like this too unfortunately; the most informative solution is probably to ask the developer directly.
