Hello Github,
Recently, one of our interns leaked our private IP by accidentally making a pull request into another Github user’s repository.
This code belongs to CAMB.AI (CAMB.AI Inc, Delaware C-corp) that has now leaked into public eye due to lack of understanding of the platform and how forks work.
https://github.com/m-bain/whisperX/pull/158 Here is the PR in question.
We have closed this PR already to minimize visibility but we need this deleted ASAP. This violates our IP/copyrights agreement.
[private], the author of this PR in question, is CCed (Github email: [private], Github username: [private]). Please feel free to verify him and delete the PR.
I’m looking forward for a prompt reply and thank you for your time.

Strong, secure CI/CD pipelines. This situation could not have been prevented as it was an intern's carelessness.
How is the accused project designed to circumvent your technological protection measures?
Not sure what you're asking me here.
Have you searched for any forks of the allegedly infringing files or repositories? Each fork is a distinct repository and must be identified separately if you believe it is infringing and wish to have it taken down.

No legal action required. Not pressing charges against my intern. It was a mistake. Just please take it down asap.
I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted materials described above on the infringing web pages is not authorized by the copyright owner, or its agent, or the law.
I have taken fair use into consideration.
