"Their belief" is meaningless, to get a circumvention tool removed they need a court order.
- woofie11 6y agoOr a polite request to github, apparently, which seems to work too. I don't feel as bad about it here as about youtube-dl. I disagree, mind you -- I'd like github to act as a neutral service provider -- but this one is a place where I can see why githu might hold a different opinion. It's an ideological split like abortion, gun control, or similar, where reasonable people can violently disagree. The whole "Sensitive Data takedown request" is also a github thing, but this one is a written policy: https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/site-policy/github-sensitive-data-removal-policy https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/site-... It has nothing to do with the DMCA.
