Does this takedown affect anyone who forked the repo?

  I believe takedowns usually cause forks to be deleted as well.

    Looks like there are still hundreds of popcorn time derivatives floating around: https://github.com/search?q=popcorn+time&ref=opensearch https://github.com/search?q=popcorn+time&ref=opensearch

      They’ll go after those too later, but that’s a manual process.

    Is there a way to do unlinked forks? Or is it impractical to obfuscate code?
    • Aachen 7y ago
      Yes, you can just upload it as an independent repository, just don't hit the fork button.
      • saagarjha 7y ago
        They'll come after you anyways if they care. When Apple's iBoot code was put up they presumably scoured GitHub to find unlinked forks because those disappeared soon afterwards.

          Never said they wouldn't, just you can fork/clone/mirror without auto-cascading delete.
