It's like they're new to this whole Internet thing.
Let's spread this news far and wide, /gee/.
Don't let these assholes get away with it.

> EasyList has to remove domain
Wait, you can do this with the DMCA too? I didn't think it was possible.
Is it actually an obligation in a legal sense, or did they just let themselves get scared into doing it?
>>61906017
>DMCA too
You cant, this is beyond the scope of a dmca, a domain name is not ip nor copyrightable
>>61905820
Did you know that Streisand is a Jew?

Then this is pretty odd, on both ends.

The DMCA doesn't go to EasyList, it goes to GitHub who is obligated to remove it until EasyList files a counter-claim in a US court. It's a claim they would win trivially.
>>61906188
There is no copyright infringement to be had here, github has nothing to remove
We can be just a Jewish as them.

>>61906203
That doesn't matter. You're 100% correct, but facts don't matter until they're before a judge. If Github independently threw out DMCA claims they would risk their Safe Harbour protection.
>>61906234
Its a false claim and is invalid.
That would be like saying github has the word "git" in it so gitlab sends a dmca out and has teh domain registrars shut down the domain.
It makes no sense and github as nothing to do with it
>>61906268
Yes, it's a false claim. But if GitHub makes itself the arbiter of false claims, they risk losing Safe Harbor protections if they're wrong. And that would cripple their business, so they won't risk it.
>>61906319
I dont think you understand what safe harbour actually means
>>61906216

care man mods will ban you and then you have to move your fat ass to restart that router.

>>EasyList has to remove domain
why though, there's no intellectual property here
>>61907030
That's the sick and twisted US legal system for you :)
>>61907030
They did it so the repo doesn't get removed from GitHub. I think they will add it back in eventually.
>>61905820
Bump, this is important
>>61905820
bump
All of these fucks need to go back on the Wayback Machine and see why people only had popup blockers until relatively recently...
>>61906398
No, it's literally chrome.
