Ricoh has invested significant resources in the development and continuation of its marketing and interface with its customers, and in the federal and international protection of its intellectual property, proprietary information and related data. This also includes prohibiting and protecting from the misuse of Ricoh’s intellectual property and proprietary information. This intellectual property includes data embodied in Ricoh’s code and scripts, or code repositories that link to Ricoh owned assets such as domains and subdivision servers. As such, misuse of Ricoh intellectual property includes, but is not limited to, controlling and owning code repositories and scripts that contain code that links to a Ricoh subversion server or that contain Ricoh proprietary information. It has come to our attention that [private] (with the GitHub username: greg-1-anderson) is the owner of a code repository hosted on GitHub that includes references to Ricoh information and links to a Ricoh subversion server. Specifically, this code contains a reference to geni.rintra.net which directly links to Ricoh owned domains and subdivision servers.
[private] is a former Ricoh [private]. Ricoh has reached out to [private] directly on multiple occasions to have the code at issue removed. [private] claimed in an email on [private] and further in communications on or about [private] that the infringing code was removed. However, to date the code is still publicly available and accessible on the GitHub website.
Any unauthorized use of Ricoh intellectual property and proprietary information by any individual is strictly prohibited under the law and by Ricoh policy. Further, as a former Ricoh [private] [private] is not authorized to maintain a code repository that includes references to Ricoh proprietary information and links to a Ricoh subversion server.
Ricoh requests that GitHub immediately and permanently remove the infringing code in its entirety from the GitHub platform and any forks that connect to it.
