I wonder how these companies issuing takedown requests handle forks.

I wonder how these companies issuing takedown requests handle forks.
- Mahn 11y agoI guess they don't, unless a particular fork becomes popular enough to stand on its own.

- chippy 11y agoGithub iirc will, if they have to take down the parent repo, take down all (automatically) forked ones
- tjbiddle 11y agoThis wasn't a DMCA complaint (Or whatever equivalent - if that's not correct) sent to Github though, this was sent directly to the author of the original repository. But point still stands - even if Github took it down, there are forks out there - the code will always exist.
