+
+**Please describe the nature of your copyright ownership or authorization to act on the owner's behalf.**
+
+I am the [private] [private] and copyright owner of the software project called Λbstract. The software was developed by [private] across several private Git repositories beginning in April and continuing through the present. The project includes more than 250 total commits across its development history and version 1.6 was released on July 17. The repository reported in this notice appeared on July 24 and distributes a modified unauthorized build of  [private] software.
+
+**Please provide a detailed description of the original copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed.**
+
+Λbstract is proprietary software that  [private] developed and distribute privately to authorized users. It contains a licensing verification mechanism implemented in the file popup.js which sends a request to  [private] authorization server to determine whether a user is allowed to use the software and for how long. If authorization fails, the software prevents activation of its functionality. The project was developed across multiple private repositories starting April 7 and currently contains over 100 commits in the active repository alone.
+
+**If the original work referenced above is available online, please provide a URL.**
+
+**We ask that a DMCA takedown notice list every specific file in the repository that is infringing, unless the entire contents of the repository are infringing on your copyright. Please clearly state that the entire repository is infringing, OR provide the specific files within the repository you would like removed.**
+
+**Based on the above, I confirm that:**
+
+The entire repository is infringing
+
+**Identify the full repository URL that is infringing:**
+
+https://github.com/alialtay44/lothlorien
+
+**Do you claim to have any technological measures in place to control access to your copyrighted content? Please see our <a href="https://docs.github.com/articles/guide-to-submitting-a-dmca-takedown-notice#complaints-about-anti-circumvention-technology">Complaints about Anti-Circumvention Technology</a> if you are unsure.**
+
+Yes
+
+**What technological measures do you have in place and how do they effectively control access to your copyrighted material?**
+
+Λbstract contains a licensing verification mechanism implemented in the file popup.js. When the software is used, it sends a request to [private] authorization server to verify whether the user is permitted to run the software and for how long the license remains valid. The server checks a database of authorized users and returns whether the user is allowed and the expiration time. If the verification fails or the license is expired, the software blocks activation of its functionality and prevents the bot from running. This server-side license verification system is designed to control access to the paid software and prevent unauthorized use.
+
+**How is the accused project designed to circumvent your technological protection measures?**
+
+The reported repository distributes a ZIP archive containing a modified build of [private] software. In the original implementation, the licensing system verifies authorization using [private] server endpoint. In the distributed build contained in the repository, this verification mechanism has been modified so that the authorization request is redirected to a different endpoint controlled by the distributor instead of [private] original server. This modification allows the software to bypass the original license-verification system and enables unauthorized users to run the software without obtaining a valid license from [private].
