In youtube there are people who takes ownership of songs that do have copyright owner but the owner don't give crap of people using their music (example, an intro song for a 80s cartoon).
The thing, is as long as those people have the ownership, they can demonetise your video and take it down, but you cant remove their claim of ownership unless you are the legal owner of the copyright, who as I said, does not care about it...
So whatever system you get, it is not perfect...
- farawayea 3y agoI didn't meant to discuss how this should be done or not done, nor the merits of taking down this emulator's repo. I was mostly making a point that one can maliciously take down Gitlab projects and get the accounts of all the contributors blocked immediately without actual proof of wrongdoing. It's not a platform or company which can be trusted. Imagine you start a successful open source project or a company does that. A competitor or someone who wants to do harm can just instantly take down your project and get everyone banned immediately.
