While working together with [private], we created an unfinished LeanPub book where I was the main author. He filed DMCA takedown doe LeanPub and it was taken down and thus publication from LeanPub is no longer available (https://leanpub.com/mobprogramming-guidebook/). He copied a version to his github repository (https://github.com/isidore/mobprogrammingguidebook.github.io/blob/master/images/mobprogrammingguidebook.pdf) that is illegal as per his own request to LeanPub. I asked to take the material down with an issue on Apr 7th (https://github.com/isidore/mobprogrammingguidebook.github.io/issues/1) and he doxxed me by registering copyright revealing my home address without my knowledge or consent on April 30th ([private])
I kindly request you to remove the pdf from github and stop serving it on github pages. I have read and understand GitHub's Guide to Filing a DMCA Notice.
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.
An early taken down private copy of book he has downloaded from LeanPub https://github.com/isidore/mobprogrammingguidebook.github.io/blob/master/images/mobprogrammingguidebook.pdf
Distributing personal copy is not ok.
There is no published version available.
I will not consent to publishing unfinished version with my name.
What files should be taken down? Please provide URLs for each file, or if the entire repository, the repository’s URL.
Have you searched for any forks of the allegedly infringing files or repositories? Each fork is a distinct repository and must be identified separately if you believe it is infringing and wish to have it taken down.
No.
Is the work licensed under an open source license? If so, which open source license? Are the allegedly infringing files being used under the open source license, or are they in violation of the license?
No.
What would be the best solution for the alleged infringement? Are there specific changes the other person can make other than removal? Can the repository be made private?
Remove the file and stop serving it though GitHub pages. They are free to create their own book by that name.
Do you have the alleged infringer’s contact information? If so, please provide it.
