+[private] the [private] and copyright holder of the original project “gdt-cpus”, developed under the name “Wild Pixel Games”. The repository is licensed under dual MIT/Apache-2.0, includes explicit copyright and NOTICE files, and was originally published at: https://github.com/WildPixelGames/gdt-cpus. All code, documentation, examples and structure were created by [private].
+
+**Please provide a detailed description of the original copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed.**
+
+The original project includes source code (Rust), documentation (README.md, docs/), examples (examples/), licensing (LICENSE-MIT, LICENSE-APACHE, NOTICE) and metadata (Cargo.toml) which explicitly attribute the author and studio (Wild Pixel Games). The repository includes both technical content and creative expression (API descriptions, documentation language, structure, formatting, etc.) authored and owned solely by [private].
+
+**If the original work referenced above is available online, please provide a URL.**

+https://github.com/WildPixelGames/gdt-cpus

+
+**We ask that a DMCA takedown notice list every specific file in the repository that is infringing, unless the entire contents of the repository are infringing on your copyright. Please clearly state that the entire repository is infringing, OR provide the specific files within the repository you would like removed.**
+
+**Based on the above, I confirm that:**
+
+The entire repository is infringing
+
+**Identify the full repository URL that is infringing:**
+
+https://github.com/BryanLR29/gdt-cpus
+
+**Do you claim to have any technological measures in place to control access to your copyrighted content? Please see our <a href="https://docs.github.com/articles/guide-to-submitting-a-dmca-takedown-notice#complaints-about-anti-circumvention-technology">Complaints about Anti-Circumvention Technology</a> if you are unsure.**
+
+No
+
+**If you are reporting an allegedly infringing fork, please note that each fork is a distinct repository and <i>must be identified separately</i>. Please read more about <a href="https://docs.github.com/articles/dmca-takedown-policy#b-what-about-forks-or-whats-a-fork">forks.</a> As forks may often contain different material than in the parent repository, if you believe any of the repositories or files in the forks are infringing, please list each fork URL below:**
+
+**Is the work licensed under an open source license?**
+
+Yes
+
+**Which license?**
+
+other
+
+**How do you believe the license is being violated?**
+
+The repository contains a nearly identical copy of [private] code, originally dual-licensed under MIT OR Apache-2.0, but the infringer removed or altered license and attribution information by:  
+• Presenting the project as their own creation.  
+• Replacing the README with their own branding and attribution.  
+• Changing the license to MIT-only, omitting the Apache-2.0 component.  
+• Failing to credit the original author (Wild Pixel Games / [private]) in the README, Cargo.toml, and project metadata.  
+• Linking all documentation, badges, and downloads to their own repository, misleading users into thinking they are the original author.  
+• Even though GitHub normally tracks forks, this repository is not marked as “forked from WildPixelGames/gdt-cpus,” further obscuring its origin.
+
+**What changes can be made to bring the project into compliance with the license? For example, adding attribution, adding a license, making the repository private.**
+
+The following steps would bring the repository into compliance:  
+• Restore the original dual license (MIT OR Apache-2.0), not MIT-only.  
+• Add a clear and visible attribution to the original author (Wild Pixel Games / [private]) in the README and metadata (Cargo.toml).  
+• Remove misleading links and badges that suggest ownership or control of the original project.  
+• Alternatively, remove the repository entirely if the intent is to pass off the original work as a new project.
+
+**Do you have the alleged infringer’s contact information? If so, please provide it.**
+
+No. The user appears to be new and anonymous — their profile has no public email, bio, or identifying info. The account was created in 2025 and has no activity other than pushing a renamed and modified copy of my project.
+
+**I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted materials described above on the infringing web pages is not authorized by the copyright owner, or its agent, or the law.**
+
+**I have taken <a href="https://www.lumendatabase.org/topics/22">fair use</a> into consideration.**
+
+**I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner, or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.**
