This removes a variety of projects from Google search results, including ones from Mozilla (specifically, Rust), Facebook, Yahoo, Netflix, openSUSE, as well as github documentation, e.g.

  - https://github.com/yahoo/pure
  - https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo
  - https://github.com/openSUSE/wicked
  - https://github.com/Netflix/Lipstick
  - https://github.com/facebook/rebound
  - https://help.github.com/articles/dealing-with-non-fast-forward-errors/
(NB. the sender, wickedpictures.com, is NSFW.)

I wonder if a bunch of these companies might get together and sue the sender of take down for defamation, loss of business, something.

How the hell does https://help.github.com/articles/dealing-with-non-fast-forwa... relate to their movies?

Why are they allowed to take down sites so obviously unrelated?

I imagine it's pretty easy to use this sort of takedown in a malicious manner to remove competitors' sites, surely there is some defense mechanism against this?

It's got 'fast-forward' in the title, so presumably their scraper added it to the pile, because 'fast-forward' is a term used in video.

Why are they allowed to take down sites so obviously unrelated?

Because they can: DMCA.
