Please describe the nature of your copyright ownership or authorization to act on the owner's behalf.
I am the copyright holder of the copyrighted material.
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.
My package is called leaf-db. It's a TypeScript-based database package which I personally use for other projects. It is licensed under the GPL 3.0 license.
GitHub link: https://github.com/chronoDave/leaf-db
npm link: https://www.npmjs.com/package/leaf-db
The infringed work specifically copied parts of an older version of my code (6.1.2), which can be found on GitHub: d60835d9c3
What files should be taken down? Please provide URLs for each file, or if the entire repository, the repository’s URL.
Infringing package url (NPM): https://www.npmjs.com/package/akivadb
Unfortunately, the GitHub link on the NPM package page points to a 404, so the infringing file locations will be described as a path where https://www.npmjs.com/package/akivadb?activeTab=explore is the path's root.
akivadb / src / errors.ts => d60835d9c3/src/errors.ts
[private]
akivadb / src / main.ts => d60835d9c3/src/model.ts
[private]
(file is too long to screenshot in it's entirety. If requested, I can provide either video footage of the whole file or attach multiple images)
akivadb / src / modifiers.ts => d60835d9c3/src/modifiers.ts
[private]
akivadb / src / types.ts => d60835d9c3/src/types.ts

Do you claim to have any technological measures in place to control access to your copyrighted content? Please see our Complaints about Anti-Circumvention Technology if you are unsure.
No
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.
As far as I can tell there are no forks made of my code.
Is the work licensed under an open source license?
Yes
Which license?
GPL-3.0
How do you believe the license is being violated?
According to https://tldrlegal.com/license/gnu-general-public-license-v3-(gpl-3)
- State changes (there's no public repository)
- Disclose source (there's no credits in the code, README or package.json)
- Include license (license has been changed)
- Include copyright (hasn't propagated license requirements)
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.
- Adding appropriate attribution (mentioning my GitHub username, project name and preferably a link to my code)
- Changing the BSD 3-Clause license to GPL-3.0
- Make the repository publicly available
What would be the best solution for the alleged infringement?
Other Change
Describe the change.
Make the project compliant as mentioned above:
- Adding appropriate attribution (mentioning my GitHub username and preferably a link to my code)
- Changing the BSD 3-Clause license to GPL-3.0
- Make the repository publicly available
Do you have the alleged infringer’s contact information? If so, please provide it.
I do not. I've looked in the package.json, on the GitHub profile and their Twitter but have not found a way to contact the person outside of publicly mentioning about this issue, which I deemed inappropriate.
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.
