Truly bizarre story—still completely unclear what the copyright troll's motive is—but it's cool that an organization like the VGHF fought back and won as well as detailed the process to help others facing similar issues.

Jeez, I know I'm preaching to the choir, but god damn copyright law is a bunch of bs. Like just in terms of understanding and tricks and "oops someone messed up because of X".
