Sony escalates its war against its customers and the
FLOSS community. GitHub received and published the DMCA takedown
Notice that requested it to remove 6 projects related to PS3
jailbreaking including ps3keys, ps3tools, ps3utils, lv2patcher,
GaiaManager, and psgroove. See the GitHub post:

[Is there an easy way for those who still live in a free country
(free from DMCA-like laws which override human rights in several
ways) to mirror these projects?]
