It depends on what happened to the license when the merge happened. Did the author of wahoo transfer the license to the authors of oh-my-fish? If so, then the code at the time of the merge is not subject to this DMCA notice. However, as I b

I think another subtle exploit is you can potentially track if a user has visited a website. E.g., site1 uses SRI on their unique resource, site2 uploads the same resource and SRI on theirs. so now site2 knows if a user has been to site1.
