Alex Mauer enforces contract by DMCA extortion

*** PARTS OF THIS COULD BE CONSIDERED ATTORNEY ADVERTISING *** FULL DISCLOSURE *** You may have seen one of several great videos by SidAlpha, Jim Sterling, and TotalBiscuit (in that order, go Sid for breaking the news!) The music and sound creator/producer/director for Starmazer and Starmazer DSP has issued INDIVIDUAL DMCA takedowns for streams, videos, and let's plays, apparently in order to put herself in a better position to allegedly enforce her contract with Starmazer. Let's discuss. Update: NO, it's not an interview. I am hesitant to contact an unrepresented party that I may be suing shortly. Ethical rules and moral compass. Thanks for the shoutout, Jim! THANK YOU to Brandon for this episode's thumbnail (in advance, get on it, Yoshi)!
