There's a popular package in a subfield (which I'm not going to name) which disallows redistribution in its license, but is uploaded by its author to PyPI. I wonder how that interacts with PyPI (given that it has a license, so would hit the first clause, but it doesn't allow redistribution, so would seem to be under the second clause, which contradicts the original license to users), and if the DMCA could be validly used to take down the GitHub repositories? It would also be interesting to see how many other packages have such issues.
