Yeah i tend to forget that github is in the US and their allmighty DMCA can be used to take down anything. i just have a hard time believing this shit would fly in the EU.
It would, it has, next step after DMCA even in the EU is legal action, which nintendo already fought in court. I don’t know about you but I’m not ready to defend someone else’s code in court.
Comment OP is forking Yuzu code, we’re talking about how this is fair or unfair. When you fork DMCA’d code you open yourself up to litigation and having to defend someone else’s code in court.
I won’t, OP might. Did you actually not read the context before replying? Lol.
Why wouldn’t it be legal?

The EU tends to be much harsher in these matters, though some members don’t follow along.
Again, why would it not fly in the EU?
Europeans actually care about their consumers.
Americans just view them as fat paypigs who are too stupid to fight for their own interests.
With DMCA get uploader is supposed to get notified and get a chance to file a counter claim
