| 21 | +**Please provide a detailed description of the original copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed.** |

| 24 | +1. COPYRIGHTED WORK |
| 25 | +━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +Name: GambiaGPT |
| 28 | +Owner: [private], [private], [private] |
| 29 | +Original repository: [private] |
| 30 | +Build ID: [private] |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +This software is proprietary. All rights are reserved under the license file present in the original repository, which states: |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +"Copyright (c) 2026 [private], [private], [private]. All rights reserved. Copying, forking, distributing or using this code without express written permission is strictly prohibited." |

| 36 | +**If the original work referenced above is available online, please provide a URL.** |

| 39 | +2. INFRINGING MATERIAL |
| 40 | +━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +The following repository contains an unauthorized copy of my proprietary software: |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +Infringing URL: https://github.com/mahammed-touray-primeforge/gambiagpt |
| 45 | +Infringing user: mahammed-touray-primeforge |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +This repository is an unauthorized fork of my original work. The infringing repository contains identical source code, file structure, and proprietary identifiers including the BUILD_ID watermark embedded in the original code. |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +**We ask that a DMCA takedown notice list every specific file in the repository that is infringing, unless the entire contents of the repository are infringing on your copyright. Please clearly state that the entire repository is infringing, OR provide the specific files within the repository you would like removed.** |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +**Based on the above, I confirm that:** |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +The entire repository is infringing |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +**Identify the full repository URL that is infringing:** |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +https://github.com/mahammed-touray-primeforge/gambiagpt |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +**Do you claim to have any technological measures in place to control access to your copyrighted content? Please see our <a href="https://docs.github.com/articles/guide-to-submitting-a-dmca-takedown-notice#complaints-about-anti-circumvention-technology">Complaints about Anti-Circumvention Technology</a> if you are unsure.** |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +Yes |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +**What technological measures do you have in place and how do they effectively control access to your copyrighted material?** |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +The software contains a proprietary BUILD_ID watermark |
| 66 | +([private]) embedded in the source |
| 67 | +code, a canary token that alerts the owner when the code is executed |
| 68 | +by unauthorized parties, and a proprietary LICENSE file explicitly |
| 69 | +prohibiting copying, forking or distribution without written permission. |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +**How is the accused project designed to circumvent your technological protection measures?** |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +The infringing repository copied the source code verbatim including |
| 74 | +the proprietary watermark, bypassing the copyright notice and license |
| 75 | +restrictions embedded in the code. The fork was created without |
| 76 | +authorization from the copyright owner and circumvents the access |
| 77 | +controls by reproducing the full codebase outside the owner's control. |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +**If you are reporting an allegedly infringing fork, please note that each fork is a distinct repository and <i>must be identified separately</i>. Please read more about <a href="https://docs.github.com/articles/dmca-takedown-policy#b-what-about-forks-or-whats-a-fork">forks.</a> As forks may often contain different material than in the parent repository, if you believe any of the repositories or files in the forks are infringing, please list each fork URL below:** |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +https://github.com/mahammed-touray-primeforge/gambiagpt |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +**Based on the representative number of forks I have reviewed, I believe that all or most of the forks are infringing to the same extent as the parent repository.** |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +**Is the work licensed under an open source license?** |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +No |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +**What would be the best solution for the alleged infringement?** |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +Reported content must be removed |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +**Do you have the alleged infringer’s contact information? If so, please provide it.** |
