What is keeping Kakao from doing the same thing again?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago

Kakao (hopefully) won't get to know the real names of the developers, which will prevent them from suing the devs personally.

They could try to DMCA claim the repo, but Tachiyomi is completely legal, so hopefully Github won't take it down. Github previously helped youtube-dl after they got DMCA notices.
