IMO the NYT goes too far with its copyright/trademark claims. A few months ago several small-time amateur hobbyist Wordle-clone GitHub repositories were deleted due to NYT DMCA takedowns.

Considering I read this headline as "Wordle in legal row with geography spinoff, Wordle" ... I think this is an entirely valid trademark dispute. Yes, NYT goes too far with copyright/trademark claims, but this one seems like an issue where reasonable minds could disagree.
