**** threatens NGOHQ.com
Posted by Regeneration on May 2nd, 2008, 03:21 AM

It seems that **** is unhappy about us mirroring their **** Precision Overclocking Utility. They emailed us earlier in the dumb and known “If you do not immediately remove the copyrighted material from NGOHQ.com, and notify us in writing that you have done so, we will have no choice but to pursue legal action against you” fashion; instead of the wise and useful “Would you kindly” fashion.

Despite the fact Copyright and intellectual property laws vary from country to country, and our law differs from theirs, we have decided to remove it. After all - it’s their software. However, since they used a “violent” style of communications, there will be consequences: the word “****” will be censored, and their hardware will be "banned" in upcoming software projects.

Note: There are millions of websites hosting drivers and software, but it seems that NGOHQ.com is the ONLY site to receive legal threats from Nvidia and their partners. Everyone is allowed to mirror these files, but only NGOHQ.com is not allowed, and we are sick of it.

So you're suggesting nv is keeping an eye on ngohq and then alerted evga to take immediate action?
