| 9 | +Dear GitHub DMCA Agent, |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +I have read and understand GitHub's Guide to Filing a DMCA Notice. We, Warezio s.r.o., acting as |
| 12 | +copyright agent on behalf of company RTL Hrvatska d.o.o.. We represent clients who own or hold |
| 13 | +exclusive licenses to copyrighted audiovisual content, including live television broadcasts and IPTV |
| 14 | +streams. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +Section 40(1)(c) of the Czech Copyright Act establishes a direct statutory obligation for certain |
| 17 | +intermediaries and service providers to disclose specified information to a copyright holder whose |
| 18 | +rights have been infringed or are at risk of infringement. We therefore kindly request that you |
| 19 | +disclose the following information about [private] (username [private]), who is the |
| 20 | +author of this repository: |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +- full postal address |
| 23 | +- email address |
| 24 | +- phone number |
| 25 | +- all IP addresses used for the registration and for any subsequent access to the account |
| 26 | +- devices, operating systems and browsers used to access the account and your services |
| 27 | +- history of changes made to the account (such as changes of email address, name, address, |
| 28 | +etc.) |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +We kindly ask you to provide the above information within seven (7) days of receipt of this request. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +1. Identification of the Copyrighted Work Claimed to Have Been Infringed: |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +The copyrighted works at issue are live IPTV streams of television channels and programming owned |
| 35 | +or exclusively licensed by our clients. These include, but are not limited to, premium and pay-perview channels that are protected under copyright law. Our clients hold valid copyrights for the |
| 36 | +distribution and streaming of this content, and unauthorized linking to or distribution of these |
| 37 | +streams constitutes infringement. |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +2. Identification of the Material That Is Claimed to Be Infringing and Where It Is Located: |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +The entire repository at https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv is dedicated to collecting and distributing |
| 42 | +links to IPTV streams, the most of which are unauthorized and infringe on copyrights. The repository |
| 43 | +knowingly includes links to illegal IPTV streams, and its core purpose is built upon these infringing |
| 44 | +activities. Specific infringing materials include, but are not limited to, the following URLs found in the |
| 45 | +repository's playlist files: |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +RTL Hrvatska d.o.o. |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +• https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv/blob/master/streams/hr.m3u |
| 50 | +• #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="RTL.hr@SD",RTL (1080p) |
| 51 | +• https://bpcdnmanprod.nexttv.ht.hr/bpk-tv/RTL/default/index.mpd |
| 52 | +• #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="RTL2.hr@SD",RTL 2 (1080p) |
| 53 | +• https://bpcdnmanprod.nexttv.ht.hr/bpk-tv/RTL2/default/index.mpd |
| 54 | +• #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="RTLCroatiaWorld.hr@SD",RTL Croatia (1080p) |
| 55 | +• https://d1cs5tlhj75jxe.cloudfront.net/rtl/playlist.m3u8 |
| 56 | +• #EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="RTLKockica.hr@SD",RTL Kockica (1080p) |
| 57 | +• https://d1rzyyum8t0q1e.cloudfront.net/rtl-kockica/playlist.m3u8 |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +These URLs directly link to unauthorized streams of our clients' copyrighted content without |
| 60 | +permission. The repository facilitates widespread infringement by aggregating and maintaining these |
| 61 | +links. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +3. Explanation of What the Affected User Would Need to Do to Remedy the Infringement: |
| 64 | +To remedy the infringement, the user must remove all infringing URLs and cease all activities related |
| 65 | +to collecting or distributing links to unauthorized IPTV streams. However, given that the repository's |
| 66 | +entire purpose is based on these infringing links and the facilitation of illegal activities, no partial |
| 67 | +remedy is sufficient. The only adequate remedy is the complete and permanent deletion of the |
| 68 | +repository. |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +Furthermore, the repository's issues section contains over 11,900 closed issues containing the |
| 71 | +keyword "Add" (searchable at[private]), where users request the addition of further undeniably pirated channels. These issues are moderated and approved by the repository |
| 72 | +maintainers, who are fully aware of the infringing nature of the content. This demonstrates willful |
| 73 | +and ongoing facilitation of copyright infringement. The entire repository infringes on copyrights and |
| 74 | +should be considered as a whole for removal, as its primary function is to enable access to pirated |
| 75 | +streams. |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +Please note that this repository not only violates copyright law but also GitHub Acceptable Use |
| 78 | +Policies by promoting and facilitating illegal activities, such as the distribution of pirated content. |

| 87 | +I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted materials described above on the infringing web |
