IPFS gateway DMCA takedowns

A volunteer IPFS gateway operator has quit after major publishers demanded the removal of 7,350 URLs, none of which had ever been accessed.

Anyone here target of this?

How is black-listing even done on IPFS?

Presumably you'd need to wire a regex output filter to comply. Cloudflare filters the crap out of their gate to comply. It looks like the whole if libgen is around so there's quite a bit of incentive for publishers to be a pain in our asses.
