I hope the EFF or a similar non-profit steps in here. Bad faith DMCA notices such as this need to be challenged as a matter of principle.

- _ea1k 3y agoThe DMCA notice is unclear here. It is odd that it calls out all implementations including both their copyrighted ios and android apps, as well as the client implementations in Javascript and Python. Presumably neither their ios nor Android app used Python, so direct copyright infringement seems impossible. It certainly seems likely that this DMCA notice was in bad faith.
- KennyBlanken 3y agoThe EFF doesn't give a damn about helping fight specific DMCA abuses unless you're one of the technorati; they're focused on the "big picture." At best you might get an amicus brief if there's a lawsuit and the lawsuit is high-profile enough for them to be interested.
