Cisco is a technology company that actively protects its copyrighted works and its proprietary information. Cisco employs technological measures to effectively control access to its copyright protected IOU software.
It has recently come to Cisco's attention that the user [private], using the bennettbO1 username, is offering an "IOU License Generator" that provides the public with unauthorized access to Cisco's proprietary and copyright protected IOU software, as well as information about how to use the license generator to illegally access Cisco's software. The license generator and usage information are available at: <https://github.com/bennetbO1/iougen>. Cisco has not authorized or sanctioned this license generator or the public's access to its IOU software.

It is apparent from the web site's content that Mr. Bennett is well aware that he is offering to the public, providing and/or otherwise trafficking in technology that is primarily designed or produced for the purpose of circumventing a technological measure that effectively controls access to Cisco's copyright protected IOU software in violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. 1201(a)(2) and (b) ("DMCA"). Mr. Bennett's conduct also violates the Terms of Service for GITHUB.COM, including provision A.8, which prevents use of your company's service for any illegal or unauthorized purpose. Moreover, GitHub represents that it supports the protection of intellectual property and asks that its users do the same.
