content: I don't think this'll hold up in court. I believe it was removed to stop their repository from going down. It will be appealed no doubt, but a url in a list is not DMCAable, as far as I know, A url is public information. The only curious example I can think of is a link to a torrent being DMCAed on google: but the infringement of the DMCA is the contents of the link, not the link itself, a public facing website from the owner of the content is not infringing content. tldr: I have the right to block any traffic from any domain to my computer, whether I use an app or the HOSTS file built into windows. P.S. if these mouth breathers had any sense, they'd just use a backend API and local temp storage to load the ads into the publishers website instead of loading ads from an external source, ffs P.S.S please don't read the above advice, mouth breathers. P.S.S.S. brb, applying for an executive job at an ad company with my million dollar idea.
