@geniusmusing I’ll read the article later, but does this mean that #Microsoft is going to assist in overturning the vastly unjust #DMCA law? I mean, #GitHub is significant to developers, but to the outside world, they’re invisible. But if Microsoft as a whole says “DMCA is unfair, unjust, and hurting copyright and patent dependent industries by enabling cartels like #RIAA and #MPAA to freely trample on smaller, independent content producers and the people who just want to enjoy music and movies”, some of those empty-headed congressionals might listen.

I'm not big on #GitHub (even before Microsoft bought them), but my impression of DMCA is that GH did not have any say about closing repositories.
The claims in the DMCA request may have been garbage, but #Microsoft GitHub doesn't get to choose. They have to disable access to those repos or be liable for any further damages the copyright abusing #RIAA claimed.

Playing #Minecraft (at least the original Java edition) will soon require a #Microsoft account. Your old #Mojang account is going away.
I guess I'll try to log in and close my account. I only tried to play it once (spawned underwater, so immediately drowned).
