Before disabling any content in relation to this takedown notice, GitHub
- contacted the owners of some or all of the affected repositories to give them an opportunity to make changes
- provided information on how to submit a DMCA Counter Notice.
To learn about when and why GitHub may process some notices this way, please visit our README.
Are you the copyright holder or authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf?
Yes, I am the copyright holder.
Please describe the nature of your copyright ownership or authorization to act on the owner's behalf.
I wrote this. The whole thing. I created the software, the algorithms, the models, and the artwork.
This content is 100% mine. I own it.
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.
The original work is a development mod that our premium users are paying to access. What they have done here is to hack our mod and allow anyone to access it. This cheapens the benefits for our valid paying players, and is actually just outright theft...
What files should be taken down? Please provide URLs for each file, or if the entire repository, the repository’s URL.
Here is one repo (the entire thing!): https://github.com/ShrekLeaker/OreSpawnMC/releases/tag/development_0.7
And here is another repo (again, the whole thing): https://github.com/ShrekLeaker/OreSpawnMC/releases/tag/development_0.6
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.
I have not. This is all we know about.
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 it is not. All the code is privately held and closely guarded.
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?
It is a completely illegal hack of my content being illegally made public.
The best solution here is to ban the user entirely (ShrekLeaker) as they are knowingly and intentionally committing crimes.
And remove the repos, of course.
Do you have the alleged infringer’s contact information? If so, please provide it.
ShrekLeaker on your website (github). That is all I know.
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 fair use 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.
I have read and understand GitHub's Guide to Submitting a DMCA Takedown Notice.
So that we can get back to you, please provide either your telephone number or physical address.
