Mazda files false DMCA takedown notice to intimidate open source programmer 🤦

I can now proudly announce that the Content Mafia has gone full circle.
Amazon Content Services Llc has filed a DMCA complaint against me for infringing the 2024 series "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" season 2.
The tweet (from 2020) merely cited the names of "notorious markets" exactly as found in the official public #MPA filing.
I'm a bit late as most of the time to hear about the latest Nintendo DMCA takedown of another website, this time one of the oldest if not the oldest website that have hosted among ROMs of old games game manuals too, it was overall a great archival project preserving old games. I'm not saying Nintendo doesn't have the right to do so whatever they deem necesery to protect the games that they released, but it's still a bit shitty of them.

Nintendo believes ROM sites are haven for illegal activity, copyright infringement, and piracy and they have a history of taking down sites in the past including LoveROMs, Rom Universe and more. Can Nintendo be trusted to do it themselves? The Nintendo Switch Online (NSO) service is a fraction of the size of the Virtual Console and its unlikely it will ever exceed it. It's my view that Nintendo is effectively erasing their own history as more games are lost to time. In today's episode we take a closer look at why I believe the only true preservation in the video game industry are ROMS. Note: This episode is an opinion piece for entertainment purposes only.
