+
+I am a [private] of Celemony Software GmbH, familiar with GitHub and tasked to find out what we can do to prevent such content being posted on GitHub.
+
+**Please provide a detailed description of the original copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed. If possible, include a URL to where it is posted online.**

+Melodyne 5 is a commercial, grammy awarded audio production tool. Relevant information can be found at https://www.celemony.com/en/melodyne/what-is-melodyne.

+**What files should be taken down? Please provide URLs for each file, or if the entire repository, the repository’s URL.**
+
+The GH repository at https://github.com/usnsiadu/SC-celemonymelodyne5-Sgockj allegedly features serial numbers and offers a link to an external site where a cracked version of Melodyne 5 can be downloaded. At the time of writing this, the link points to a non-existing site, however. Tags associated with this repository (i.e. `celemony-melodyne-5-full-crack`) unmistakenly reveal the sole purpose of this repository. It's neither in our, nor GitHubs, interest, that such information is publicly available.

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.**
