More data obfuscation in the name of the almighty algorithm. So now there's even less information available to mod authors to make informed decisions about their mods in relation to Nexus. Who btw should be treated as a business relationship for EVERYONE rather than just some place to put mods.

Things have certainly moved beyond what they were years ago, when it was all just a hobby and there was no money directly involved.  Unfortunately, for better or worse that situation has change, and it is, as you say, now a business - and it needs to be treated as such by all involved.  Once, when we were children, we shared the things we had with our friends, and even people not our friends - just because, and no accounting was needed, or even thought of.  But once we become adults, and open a store, we can no longer treat things in the same matter, but must have bookkeeping, accounting, and all the other things that come with running a business, and any information concerning that business needs to be shared with those who directly contribute to allowing the business to maintain its successful position.  And one of the important parts of that, is the providing of clear information on how the business is run.

Well, this is all somewhat outside the intent of this particular discussion topic, but it is still a very important subject, and one that probably deserves a more in-depth discussion than just a few posts here and there.

Under News:

A mod for Starfield recently received a takedown request via a DMCA.  The mod is Dune - Project Arrakis - https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/11139 , and the DMCA was filed by Legendary Entertainment, LLC as the producer and copyright holder for the films Dune and Dune 2 (directed by Denis Villeneuve and distributed by Warner Bros).  The date of issue was October 22. 2024
(A full list of movies for which Legendary Entertainment is the producer/copyright holder may be found here)

This was reported on Nexus under Takedown Requests here:

DMCA request issued by Legendary Entertainment

As per Nexus TOS, the uploader has 14 days from the above listed date (so by November 5) to file a counter-claim - if no suitable claim is filed in that time, then the mod will stay removed.

As a final note, should anyone wish to upload a mod based upon some book or movie, make sure that either the subject is in the public domain, or that proper permission has been requested and approved by the copyright holder - do NOT assume that just because the subject is seen in many places, that it may freely be used for a mod.

Also, see the following for Nexus's policy as regards this topic:

Copyright and you

Piracy and you

Although the above were written for and by Nexus, rest assured that the same principles apply and are enforced by all other reputable mod hosting sites, such as AFK Mods, for example, and any infringement of, or violation of copyright, or any incident of piracy, will NOT be tolerated - AT ALL - and will potentially carry severe consequences.
