=== | ===DMCA Takedown (2022-01-04)=== | ||
Readium filed a [[Digital Millennium Copyright Act |DMCA]] takedown notice with [[wikipedia:GitHub|GitHub]] in 2022. The notice stated that: <blockquote>"The user noDRM has published on GitHub software which specifically allows the decryption of ebooks protected by the LCP Profile 1.0 and allows saving them as non-protected ebooks. This infringement violates our legal business and affects authors and publishers’ IP. This codebase is presented as a plug-in of the well-known Calibre software, an open-source ebook manager."</blockquote> | |||
As well as that the explicit circumvention of Readium LCP was in a file called '''"lpcdedrm.py'''." And that: <blockquote>"The user noDRM is actively promoting the activity of cracking both library loans and one-off purchases"</blockquote>followed to a link to a GitHub Issue to substantiate the claim.<ref>{{Cite web |title=2022-01-04-readium |author=[private] |date=2022-01-04 |url=https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2022/01/2022-01-04-readium.md |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20260604153156/https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2022/01/2022-01-04-readium.md |archive-date=4 Jun 2026 |access-date=23 Jun 2026}}</ref> | |||
