That's just GREAT!
I work for a federal agency and our network is such a POS that I can't d/l work-related files half the time without getting network time-outs, etc. And here the FBI is speeding up a kiddie-porn site! #SMH

GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT!
So the copyright maximalists want sites to just take their word that stuff is infringing and take everything down with the flimsiest of DMCA notices.....DO IT! Do it for one month, take every single thing down on the slightest hint of infringement or DMCA notice! Take it down regardless of who or what is requesting it! Take it down if your dog barks at the screen for no reason!
Take it down! And it won't be long before those idiots realize that without a valid, functional, well-defined system...their "perfect world" where any DMCA takes anything down for any reason is actually a wasteland of broken links, 404 notices and lost revenue.

Avast me hearties!
THIS is the precise reason why I DO NOT purchase e-format books of any form. 1) the device company can just yank them off your device (Amazon) 2) if the company sinks you lose all your PURCHASED PRODUCT (that's like buying a hardback & then when the publisher goes bankrupt they come to your door & demand the book back) 3) did anyone notice the price-fixing scandal?

Notable French Firsts....
First to successfully capture a fleet at anchor with cavalry officers (Den Helder - look it up!)
First to lose a war against Greenpeace (yea they blew up the Rainbow Warrior but lost the war)
And soon, first to criminally charge corporate executives for failing to decrypt data. I agree most corporate executives should be charged....just not with this!

You beast
you actually expect other studios to WORK at creating a great game, environment and support package? Why do that when you can slap crap together, DRM it and the foolish masses will still buy it?

I'm guessing
they combined the requests so that they could give a null response to the "other party" and claim they are unable to share the "other parties" information with AP.
