I'm not necessarily rooting for the ReVanced project here, but… this takedown notice is supposedly claiming circumvention of access controls to copyrighted content? Since when is weather data copyrightable? Unlike what happens in Europe, the US doesn't recognise separate "database rights" either.
> the complete repository at https://github.com/revanced/revanced-patches https://github.com/revanced/revanced-patches is clearly illegal, which you see immediately if you just spend a few seconds to check it out.

- rasz 4y agoYou cant copyright raw data. You could claim your particular data is a compilation tho https://www.bitlaw.com/copyright/database.html https://www.bitlaw.com/copyright/database.html
