I don’t know… that’s kind of a negative way to see it. but I mean those auto DMCA takedown services already kind of do something like this right? Why shouldn’t IP violation checking as a service be a real thing that open developers can access? I think your framing of this is wrong. More empowerment and legal protection and enforcement for developers that underpin the ecosystem is a good thing.
