www.engadget.com Nintendo blitzes GitHub with over 8,000 emulator-related DMCA takedowns
Nintendo sent a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) notice for over 8,000 GitHub repositories hosting code from the Yuzu Switch emulator, which the Zelda maker previously described as enabling “piracy at a colossal scale.”
WTF - That's a lot of repos... -.-

When you remove one emulator that makes money, it’s because of money. Yuzu code will not be lost, but keeping a healthy community after DMCA will be hard.
But when you close 8,000 repositories, it’s a kick in the hardware preservation community. The simple fact it’s possible to do this is frightening.
