Newpipe.net removed from Google search results due to DMCA take down request

It seems that Google has removed the official website of NewPipe, a popular project, from its search listings. This action was taken in response to a DMCA takedown notice from a French record label called “Because Music”. The notice not only targets NewPipe’s homepage, but also other unrelated domains. While this could have been worse, the removal of the homepage creates several issues. For example, fake clones of NewPipe that imitate the homepage may now rank higher in search results, potentially deceiving users. The team is currently discussing how to address this situation and is even considering legal action. They are open to assistance from experienced lawyers.
